Shinsegae Centum City & Spa Land
신세계 센텀시티
Once certified by Guinness as the world's largest department store, with the Spa Land hot spring sauna, an ice rink, and a food court.
Shinsegae Centum City opened in 2009, and that same year Guinness World Records certified it as the world's largest department store. It brings together luxury brands, Korean designer labels, duty-free shops, a supermarket, and a food court. The most popular draw for visitors is Spa Land, which uses natural hot spring water drawn from about 1,000 meters underground. It has more than a dozen themed hanjeungmak (sauna) rooms, foot baths, and outdoor hot spring pools. You can stay about 4 hours, and admission costs about 20,000 won (slightly more on weekends). It is one of the top choices for the Korean sauna experience. The building also has an indoor ice rink and a CGV cinema. Getting there: subway Line 2 to Centum City Station, with a direct connection.
