The tower is structurally linked to the Asan environmental energy plant, which incinerates household waste to generate electricity.
The observation floor includes a transparent glass floor section, allowing visitors to look directly down to the base of the tower.
The facility was constructed as part of a brownfield redevelopment project to transform a waste treatment site into a multi-purpose cultural destination.
The tower's design includes a rotating restaurant level that completes a full revolution to offer 360-degree views.
Asan Green Tower is a 150-meter observation tower located within the Environmental Science Park in Asan-si. The tower serves as a waste-to-energy facility, utilizing the heat generated from the adjacent incineration plant to power its operations and local infrastructure. Its primary structure features a panoramic observation deck that provides views of the surrounding Chungcheongnam-do landscape and the Gokgyeo-cheon stream. The facility is integrated into a larger park complex that emphasizes eco-friendly education and renewable energy technology. It is a landmark of environmental urban planning in the region, functioning simultaneously as a utility site and a public recreation space.
