Popular Attractions
1. Adventure
Lotte World is divided into two sections, Adventure & Magic Island. Adventure is the biggest indoor theme park in Korea, and one of the biggest in the world. Since most of the park is indoors, you will never have to worry about the weather during your trip! It also hosts most of the park’s rides, attractions, and performances.
a. Flume Ride
Prepare to get wet on a jungle-themed log-flume ride that carries 4 riders up a cliff and lets gravity do its job, plummeting the log-boat to the river below with a huge splash.
b. French Revolution
Ride a fast-indoor roller coaster that brings riders through a loop-de-loop, elaborate light display, and rotates 360 and 540 degrees! You can even wear VR goggles to experience the ride in a whole new way. See a fantasy world with 360-degree views that follow the movement of the coaster.
c. Conquistador
Feel the suspense on a Spanish colonial pirate-themed ship that swings you back and forth toward the ceiling of the park.
2. Magic Island
Magic Island is the outdoor portion of Lotte World, where you can find many of the thrilling coasters and rides in the park. It is also very popular in the spring & fall as you can enjoy beautiful views of the surrounding Seokchon Lake throughout the park.
a. Atlantis
As one of the most popular rides, expect a long wait time. Explore the lost city of Atlantis on a heart-pounding roller coaster that will launch riders at 72 km/h. This ride accelerates quickly, and you can get some decent whiplash if you aren’t prepared for it.
b. Gyro Drop
Ascend a 70-meter-tall tower that drops you in a terrifying free-fall back to the earth at 100 km/h. You can also try the Virtual reality version of this ride. With the help of VR goggles, you can see a futuristic city and what seems to be an endless free-fall only to be rescued by a robot right before the ride ends.
c. Gyro Swing
Sit in a circle with 39 other people and get swung in a pendulum motion while the circle spins you around like a tornado.
d. Magic Castle

The Magic Castle is by far one of the park’s most iconic locations. Although there are no rides associated with the castle, it’s the perfect backdrop to document your trip to the park. At night, the castle transforms, with various themed projections based on seasons or events happening at the park.
Tips to Enjoy the Theme Park
1. Busiest Time
The park is typically very busy on weekends and holidays, with occupancy peaking after lunch around 3pm. To avoid the crowds and extreme wait times, it is best to come early in the morning before the park fills up or visit on weekdays.
2. Let’s Dream Night Parade
Plan on staying until 8:30pm to see Lotte World’s unique night parade featuring the Lotte Cast Members, beautiful floats, and many dancers & performers. Most of the lights inside the park turn off or dim in preparation for the parade as the show features fantastic light shows, elegant fireworks displays, and even a glow-in-the-dark cast! Everyone involved in the parade has lights and LEDs on their costumes, props, and floats to light up the night and invoke a dreamlike fantasy atmosphere.
3. Sunny Days
It can help to bring a hat and some sunscreen since waiting in long lines at Magic Island directly under the hot sunlight is an easy way to get sunburnt. Don’t forget to bring a bottle of water and stay hydrated!
