El Parque del Monte Namsan (265 m sobre nivel de mar) está en un monte emblemático del centro de la ciudad de Seúl. Pese a que no es muy alto, gracias a su ubicación y la vista panorámica que se logra desde su cumbre, el monte Namsan es muy popular como lugar de descanso.
Sobre la cumbre del monte Namsan hay varias instalaciones de prestaciones públicas tales como Palgakjeong (sala octogonal), Namsan Seoul Tower y la Biblioteca de Namsan, entre otras. Para llegar a la cima, podrá optar por subirse a un teleférico o ir por un sendero escalonado. Además de esta senda de escalones, hay muchos otros caminos para subir a pie a la cumbre partiendo de Namdaemun, Hoehyeon-dong, Toegye-ro 3 -ga, Parque Jangchung, Itaewon, Huam-dong, etc.
El Parque del Monte Namsan también es un sitio histórico. En la cumbre del monte hallará el Bonghwadae (montículo de almenara) porque este fue una vez el centro de defensa de la capital. Durante la dinastía Joseon (1392-1910), la capital fue fundada en Hanyang (la actual Seúl) y para proteger a la ciudad de las invasiones, se construyeron muros de protección en las cuatro montañas principales: Bugaksan, Inwangsan, Naksan y Namsan.
Sobre el pico de Namsan, se levantaron cinco montículos de almenara para informar al gobierno central las noticias del gobierno local con un sistema de señales de fuego. También sobre la cima del monte Namsan, se encuentra el pabellón Palgakjeong, desde el cual se tiene una fantástica vista panorámica.
Desde Namsan Seoul Tower (479,7 metros de altura), podrá ver un panorama de la ciudad. El restaurante giratorio sobre la torre ofrece también vistas grandiosas. Se recomienda especialmente ir a visitar este lugar de noche, para disfrutar de las vistas de la ciudad bellamente iluminada.
