Booking

KKday sells a 3-hour evening tour from Banwoldang Station that rides the cable car up to the observatory for the night view.

Apsan Park is a forested city park on Daegu's southern side, close enough to downtown for a quick break from the streets. The cable car starts on the Keungol trail, near the Nakdong River Victory Memorial Hall, and lifts you through the woods to the Apsan Observatory, where the whole city opens up below. Cars run until late, especially from Friday to Sunday, so it works well for sunset and the city lights.
