Seoul Lotte World Tower skyscraper has fastest elevator in the world
The Lotte World Tower is the tallest building in South Korea and the fifth tallest building in the world.
The high-rise recently won the Emporis Skyscraper Award, which honors the top 10 skyscrapers that have been completed in the previous calendar year.
The tower has a number of record-breaking features, such as an elevator that delivers people from the bottom floor to the 121st floor in one minute.
It’s also built to withstand major disasters, such as a 9.0 magnitude earthquake or winds as strong as those seen during Hurricane Katrina.
