Seoul from Above

A broad panorama of northern Seoul captured from the observation deck of the N Seoul Tower on Mount Namsan. The view extends across the central northern area of the city, including the districts of Jung-gu and Euljiro, where historical neighborhoods and modern developments coexist. In the foreground appear notable buildings such as The Ambassador Seoul – A Pullman Hotel, the Stayrak Hotel, Paradise Building, and NUZZON. A portion of the Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP) roof is also visible between nearby high-rises, indicating the proximity to the Dongdaemun district.

Farther north, the dense urban layout transitions into the older neighborhoods of Jongno-gu, continuing toward the horizon. The backdrop is defined by the peaks of Inwangsan and Bugaksan, part of the Bukhansan mountain range, forming a natural boundary behind the city. The scene highlights the contrast between Seoul’s continuous urban structure and the surrounding mountainous terrain.

This panoramic image was created by stitching together five individual shots.
