What is SEOULDAL?
SEOULDAL is a hot air balloon where you can overlook the beautiful night view of Seoul from the sky of Yeouido. Although it is called a hot air balloon, it is actually a tethered gas balloon that rises up to 130 meters above Yeouido Park to offer a view of Seoul's skyline and the Han River.
The height may vary depending on the weather conditions, but at night, you can enjoy the magnificent night view of Yeouido with its many skyscrapers. Enjoy the stunning scenery in the heart of the city with SEOULDAL, a new landmark of Seoul.
