Aqua Garden Café and Aquarium Explained
Despite its location within one of Seoul's biggest shopping centers, the Aqua Garden Café is anything but ordinary and well worth a visit.
Seoul's Aqua Garden is a breathtaking aquarium café where wondrously designed tanks captivate visitors with huge, majestic driftwood, vibrant aquatic plants, and fascinating inhabitants, including unique fish, turtles, and other marine creatures.
So why should I visit?
The gentle flow of water, ethereal misty smoke, translucent furnishings, and soft lighting at the Aqua Garden Café and Aquarium create a multi-sensory, mystical ambiance. It's a place where the imagination takes hold, and you can easily believe you've become a denizen of this enchanting underwater world!
Finding the Aquagarden Cafe in Seoul
Address: Seoul, Songpa-gu, Olympic-ro 300, B1 (롯데월드몰 지하1층)
The Aqua Garden Café and Aquarium is located on the B1 level of Lotte World Mall, located in the Jamsil area on the east side of Seoul.
With popular attractions such as Seoul Sky Observatory and Lotte World Adventure nearby, parking around Lotte World Mall can be complicated and expensive. For a smoother journey, consider using public transit. Thankfully, reaching the mall is effortless thanks to its direct connection to Jamsil Subway Station on Line 2.
Getting to the Aqua Garden Cafe is straightforward. Take Exit 1 or 2 at Jamsil Station, and you'll find yourself directly inside Lotte World Mall on the B1 level. From there, look for signs directing you to the Lotte World Aquarium. The Aquagarden Café is situated diagonally opposite and across the hallway.
What is the Entrance Fee for Aqua Garden Café?
Here's the deal: the price of your drink is your ticket into the Aqua Garden Café. The drinks aren't the cheapest, but you definitely get your money's worth – especially when you think about how much regular aquariums in Korea charge for entry.
It's great that Aqua Garden doesn't pressure you to buy pricey drinks for kids. While adult coffees cost 9,000 won (USD 6.50) and up, they have milk, juice, and other kid-friendly options starting at a much more reasonable 3,500 won (USD 2.50). Plus, you can stay as long as you want – there are no time limits! Just hold onto your receipt if you plan to leave and come back to this awesome Seoul aquarium café.
