 Things to do in BusanOf the many attractions that Busan has to offer, its beaches
remain at the top of the list of things to see. Koreans and
foreigners alike flock to Busan during the summer vacation period
to enjoy the city''s beautiful beaches and extensive range of
delicious seafood options. Haeundae and Gwangalli are the most
well-known beaches in Busan; for a slightly less crowded day at the
beach, visitors should take a taxi to Songjeong Beach or try the
even more outlying Dadaepo Beach. Busan''s other great tourist attraction is its Aquarium, which is
the largest in Korea and has an impressive variety of marine life
on display. More notable sights in Busan include Beomeosa Temple,
one of Korea''s Five Great Temples, located in a serene natural
setting outside the city; Haedong Yonggungsa Temple, which has a
dramatic cliff-top setting; and Busan Tower in Nampodong, a great
place to take in panoramic views of the city and its mountain and
ocean scenery. Other places of interest in Busan include the UN
Memorial Cemetery, the Busan Museum of Modern Art, Hur Shim Chung
Spa, Geumjeong Fortress and Taejongdae Island. The Jagalchi Fish
Market and Choryang Foreigner Shopping Area are worth checking out
for their cultural interest alone. |
