Generally it is the place to go if you want a panaromic view of the city. Taking a cable ride is the faster and easiest way to get to the top but for the more adventurous and fitter ones, a hike up and down will be more fun.
Super nice view of Seoul. Gets very chilly at night, though. Might be cheaper to take the bus from Myeongdong than take the cable car, especially if you're not a fan of cable cars :P
If you have been to the Shanghai Pearl Tower or Tokyo Tower, this is another must to visit when you in Seoul. We bought a super cool Seoul Tower model in a snow ball as a souvenir from the bottom shop.
To tell you the truth, I was not so interested, but my host wanted to take me there. We took the cable car up and walked down on the way back. If there's a long line, don't panic, in Seoul long lines dissolve very quickly and the longest you might need to wait is 20 minutes.
When we visited, the institute was decorated for Halloween and had some Halloween themed extra products and services.
The view is nice and interesting, distances from other countries displayed on the windows.
The gift shop is great, albeit expensive - compared to other museum gift shops!
You can buy a postcard with a stamp (it's a package) and send it.
Once outside, don't miss the other sights - we did.
