In mid-June, I went to Daegu E-world with Jack. Thanks for opening this trip. Although we were a small group, Jack was very professional, attentive, and enthusiastic to make our trip a pleasant one. It took 1.5 hours to drive from Busan to Daegu, and almost 3 hours to go back and forth. In addition to introducing us to the scenery, taking photos, and buying tickets, he also took us to the 83 Tower. I really thank him from the bottom of my heart.

Completely Korean, this sauna is not far from the subway station, a 20-minute walk away, on the fourth to eighth floors of the building. There are two elephant stone seats at the entrance of the building. Take the elevator to the fourth floor, which is the entrance, shoe cabinet and checkout. The women's bath is on the seventh floor, the men's bath is on the sixth floor, the sauna is on the fifth floor, and the eighth floor is the gym. The keys for the shoe cabinet and the locker correspond to each other, and you also use the key to check out when you buy things. The environment is bright and warm, and the Ajumma who is responsible for exfoliation is kind and serious. After 30 minutes, the whole body is refreshed and clean, without a trace of dirt. It is worth recommending.

In addition to the sauna curtain, there are also infrared lamps and hot springs. You can stay there for about 6 hours. Then you have to buy food and drinks inside separately. I recommend the strawberry yogurt smoothie!

If you use naver map navigation, please be careful, you may be directed to enter the park from the side door (near the 83 tower), you have to climb a slope, which is very tiring... If you live near the Banwoldang on Jungang-ro, you can take bus 623 directly to arrive, without taking the subway. The park itself is very good, the whole park is very large, there are all kinds of amusement facilities, snack bars are in each theme park and the price is not expensive, you can play all day, it is recommended to take the cable car from the park gate to the 83 tower and then slowly play down.
