Feel the Rhythm of Korea: Busan

Gamcheon Culture Village

감천문화마을

Often called 'Busan's Machu Picchu,' this hillside neighborhood was transformed through a 2009 public art project. Pastel-painted houses cascade down the slope with murals and installations around every corner.

Gwangalli Beach

광안리해수욕장

A 1.4 km sandy beach with the iconic Gwangandaegyo Bridge as its backdrop. The bridge's LED lighting show at night has made this one of Busan's most photographed views.

Haedong Yonggungsa Temple

해동용궁사

A rare seaside Buddhist temple built in 1376 on the northeastern coast of Busan. Unlike most Korean temples tucked into mountains, Yonggungsa sits right at the ocean's edge.

Bosu-dong Book Street

보수동 책거리

Korea's oldest secondhand book alley, dating back to the Korean War when refugees sold books to survive. The narrow lane still houses dozens of bookshops today.

Busan Station

부산역

The southern terminus of Korea's KTX high-speed rail network. The station area serves as the gateway to Busan and is surrounded by the vibrant Texas Street neighborhood.
