HIGHLIGHTS OF BUSAN TOUR

• BUSAN
• DAY TOUR

BUSAN is gaining reputation for rich tourist resources. Urban scenery, vibrant people, very authentic culture, traditional fish market, the beach have enabled the city to reposition itself as a leisure destination.

BUSAN has variety of atmospheres such as modern city (DONGBAEKSEOM, HAEUNDAE BEACH, CENTUM CITY shopping mall), very folky places (JAGALCHI FISH MARKET, GUKJE MARKET) and recent historical places (UN MEMORIAL CEMETERY, PROVISIONAL CAPITAL MEMORIAL HALL).

If you take HIGHLIGHTS OF BUSAN TOUR, you will have the chance of visiting OLD BUSAN and NEW BUSAN together.
Because YONGGUNGSA TEMPLE is located outskirt of the city, we will visit here first.
YONGGUNGSA TEMPLE is famous for the location at sea front. In the past, BEOMEOSA TEMPLE was more popular for the cruiser. But, now days, more people are visiting YONGGUNGSA TEMPLE maybe because BEOMEOSA TEMPLE is one of common architecture Buddhist building in KOREA. (We don’t recommend you combine BEOMEOSA TEMPLE and YONGGUNGSA TEMPLE because of the long driving distance.)

From YONGGUNGSA TEMPLE to the core tourist attractions, our car needs to drive along the beautiful bridge called GWANGAN BRIDGE.

Arrival at OLD BUSAN (Please note that there is no official naming like this. Also, this separation doesn’t mean OLD BUSAN is inferior to NEW BUSAN.), you will visit GAMCHON-DONG VILLAGE, which looks like fairy tale village. Even brutal property developer failed to demolish this village to built tall apartment building.

After then, let’s go down to GWANGBOK-DONG STREET, GUKJE MARKET and JAGALCHI FISH MARKET. These are located next to each other and regarded the best presentation of OLD BUSAN because the city was formed here in the beginning.

Before heading back to hotel, you will visit TAEJONGDAE. TAEJONGDAE is a kind of natural park at the corner of YEONGDO ISLAND (connected with bridge). You will get on the circular trolley, which is moving around 3 KM long trail.

Other than above places, some people would request to visit UN MEMORIAL CEMETERY, OREUKDO SKYWALK, BUSAN AIR CURISE (cable car over the sea), HWANGRYONGSAN MOUNTAIN.
