About

Located on Apsan in Nam-gu, Daegu, Apsan Observatory is a representative night view and sunset spot selected as one of the 100 Must-Visit Tourist Spots in Korea, offering a panoramic view of downtown Daegu. Originally called Seongbulsan Mountain, it naturally became the proper noun 'Apsan' meaning the mountain situated in front of downtown Daegu. When heading to the observatory, you can use the cable car from Keungol or hike up the Anjiranggol trail.

At the top, there are various attractions such as a large moon rabbit sculpture great for making wishes and taking night certification photos, Neung-unjeong Pavilion resting area where you can appreciate the Wanggeon legend, and an octagonal pavilion where you can write and hang your wishes on a wish lantern tree.
