N Seoul Tower
A long exposure/HDR shot of the N Seoul Tower, the communication and observation tower in south Seoul, South Korea. The top of the tower, with the help of the 243m-high Namsan mountain it is sitting on, is at about 480m above sea level. At 236.7m, it one of Seoul’s definite landmarks. The tower was completed in 1971, built as a broadcast tower for TV and radio signals. The observatory was closed to the public until 1980. Originally the YTN Seoul Tower, it was renamed in 2005 to N Seoul Tower after its original owner merged with CJ Corporation (although the official name is CJ Seoul Tower). The "N" stands for 'New', 'Namsan', and 'Nature'. The tower gets illuminated in various colors, but blue is reserved for days when the air quality is good (fine dust concentration below 45micrograms/cubic meter), signaling that it is a good day for going for outdoor activities or simply a walk!
