The observatory facility of Incheon Cheongna Sky Bridge (Third Link), which made the Guinness World Records as the world's highest sea bridge observatory, will open next month.
The Incheon Free Economic Zone Authority said on the 18th that it is proceeding with interior work and the selection of an operator to open tourist facilities, including the main tower observatory of Cheongna Sky Bridge, next month.
The observatory is 184.2 meters above sea level. On clear days, visitors are said to be able to see Lotte World Tower in Seoul and Namsan Tower.
The observatory also features an "Edge Walk," where tourists wear safety gear and walk an outdoor section with a view straight down.
Under the main tower, a "Sea Cinema" that creates media art with light projected onto the bridge and a walking deck for strolling that offers views of the West Sea from various angles have been installed.
Admission is 15,000 won for the observatory and 60,000 won for the Edge Walk (including the observatory). Incheon residents can use the facilities at a 50% discount.
The Incheon Free Economic Zone Authority plans to turn a 257,000-square-meter site around the bridge in Yeongjong International City and Cheongna International City into a culture and tourism waterfront park to use the area as a tourism resource.
An official at the Incheon Free Economic Zone Authority said, "We expect Cheongna Sky Bridge to serve as a tourist attraction beyond a simple bridge."
