83 Tower
83타워
A roughly 200-meter-tall television observation tower in Duryu Park, with an observation deck and a revolving restaurant. At its base is E-World, a theme park.
83 Tower stands in Duryu Park in western Daegu. It is about 202 meters tall, was built in 1992, and was originally named Woobang Tower. It is one of Daegu's most recognizable landmarks. The upper level has a 360-degree observation deck and a revolving restaurant, with views over central Daegu, Jungsan, and the distant Palgongsan, and the night view is especially beautiful. Below the tower is E-World, Daegu's largest theme park, with roller coasters, drop towers, and other rides. In spring, hundreds of cherry trees in the park bloom and host a cherry blossom festival. In winter, the Star Light festival turns the grounds into a world of colored lights, making it a popular spot for young people and families. The theme park and the tower can be ticketed separately, and there are also combined tickets. Foreign visitors often find online discounts. The free Duryu Park next door has the Daegu Culture and Arts Center and lakeside walking paths. Getting there: about a 10-minute walk from Duryu Station on Subway Line 2.
