I like Ferris Wheel to watch wide scenery from the high place. So I was envy that it's easy to find Ferris Wheel anywhere in Japan. Even on the rooftop of the building or seaside.
There are few of Ferris Wheel in Korea. The most famous Ferris Wheel in Korea have been in Everland. After it have been dismantled, it's harder to find the place to enjoy Ferris Wheel.
Finally I've found it in Ulsan, far from Seoul about 3hours away!
This Ferris Wheel is on the rooftop of Lotte department store.You can enjoy shopping, cinema and Ferris Wheel on the top at the same time. :D
And near here, you can also enjoy seashore with pebbles and columnar joint.
It's rare in Korea, Ferris Wheel on the rooftop, maybe it's the only one.
It was cloudy, looks not attractive but nice atmosphere.
I've expected the fine day and the Ferris wheel with blue sky. Unfortunately, it was absolutely cloudy. It would have been better if the weather was clear to take a picture. But doesn't matter to enjoy.
Ride on Ferris Wheel
I only rides on Ferris Wheel. In fact it's the only goal to come here, Ulsan.
You can see Ulsan city at a glance. As I see on the sky, Ulsan is surrounded by mountains and there is a big river, called Taehwa with long bridge. River Taehwa goes to meet East Sea near by this Ferris Wheel.
It's interesting to see where people live, many factories, natures once. And maybe there is also bus garage. Ulsan is important as heavy industry city of Korea, petrochemical and shipbuilding and automotive industry. For that reason, the income level is high and also expensive place to live.
In fact, I only fell in the scenery and the music filled with this room.
I will be also nice to take it in the night. There maybe many lights from the buildings and bridge. Come here and see the sightseeing of Ulsan!
Other Rides
There are some other rides. merry-go-rounds, swing swing, mini train for children. Even I can't take merry-go-rounds this time because of not enough time, I like it very much.

Ticket for Ferris Wheel
It's very important point. The three of Lotte department store buildings are connected. So it's hard to find the way to go up to the amusement park.
It's better to use parking lot of Lotte young plaza, if you have cars. And You can just go up to 7th floor.
I have hard time to find the way to go amusement park because of using the other parking lot. try to going up and down, getting trough Lotte Cinema... I feel something like maze here.
Tip: If you are lose your way, just go down to the first floor, go out to Charlotte Plaza. And you can find it, 7th floor on Lotte Young Plaza.
