Ahopsan Forest
- 1h 15m
- Admission ticket not included
Ahopsan Forest, located in Busan, South Korea, is a hidden gem known for its natural beauty and cultural significance. This forest gets its name from the nine peaks surrounding it, and for over 400 years, it has been preserved by the Moon family. The forest’s towering bamboo groves and serene trails make it a perfect escape for nature lovers.
Ahopsan Forest gained popularity as the backdrop for various Korean dramas, including "The King: Eternal Monarch", among others. Its mystical and tranquil atmosphere has captivated filmmakers and visitors alike. Walking through its peaceful trails, visitors can enjoy the dense bamboo forests and the ancient Geumgang pines, adding to the unique charm of the place.
Aside from its natural allure, Ahopsan also holds historical significance with Gwanmiheon, a traditional Korean house built without nails by the Moon family, blending seamlessly with the forest. This hanok reflects the harmonious relationship between nature and architecture in Korea.
Haedong Yonggungsa
- 1h
Haedong Yonggungsa is a breathtaking temple located on the coast of Busan, making it one of the most unique temples in South Korea. Founded in 1376, this temple stands out from others that are typically nestled in the mountains, as it is situated right by the sea, offering a completely different atmosphere. The temple's name, which translates to "East Sea Dragon Palace Temple," is rooted in a legend that a dragon ascended from the sea to bring divine energy to the area.
One of the temple's most captivating features is the harmonious blend of the temple's architecture with the stunning coastal scenery. To reach the temple, visitors must descend 108 steps, and as they do, they are greeted by a breathtaking view of the sea. Haedong Yonggungsa is especially famous as a prime spot to watch the sunrise, with many visitors arriving early in the morning to witness the spectacular scene of the sun rising over the East Sea, casting its golden light over the temple.
Cheongsapo Daritdol Skywalk
- 40m
Cheongsapo Daritdol Observatory is a curved glass observation deck that extends out over the coastline, offering a unique perspective of Busan’s eastern shoreline. The transparent glass floor creates the thrilling sensation of walking above the sea, while the open structure provides unobstructed views of the ocean, rocky cliffs, and surrounding coastal scenery.
It is not only a popular photo spot but also a place where visitors can fully appreciate the natural beauty of Busan’s coastline in a safe and thoughtfully designed setting.
Gukje Market
- 30m
Gukje Market offers a more traditional side of Busan. This historic market is filled with small shops selling everything from clothing and household goods to souvenirs and local products. Walking through Gukje Market feels like stepping into everyday Korean life, where long-standing family-run stalls reflect the city’s history and resilience.
Bupyeong Kkangtong Market
- 1h
Bupyeong Kkangtong Market is famous for its lively street food scene and youthful atmosphere. As you walk through the narrow alleys, you’ll find a wide variety of Korean snacks, international street food, and trendy bites loved by locals and visitors alike. Lunch will be enjoyed in this area, where you can choose from popular local dishes such as Korean fried chicken, pork soup (Dwaeji Gukbap), grilled pork BBQ, beef BBQ, or a traditional Korean set meal (Hansik). It’s the perfect place to experience Busan’s vibrant food culture and try something new at every corner.
Busan Gamcheon Culture Village
- 1h
Gamcheon Culture Village is a place where the rich history of post-war refugees and vibrant modern culture come together. Originally built by those who fled to Busan during the Korean War, the village was once a collection of modest, makeshift houses on steep hillsides. Over time, it has evolved into a lively cultural destination while preserving the traces of its past. Visitors can wander through the narrow alleyways and maze-like streets, discovering the village’s unique architecture and gaining insight into the lives of its early inhabitants.
The biggest charm of Gamcheon Culture Village is its visually striking beauty, with colourful houses that look like stacked LEGO blocks. Landmarks such as the "Little Prince and the Fox" statue overlooking the village, and murals of BTS members Jimin and Jungkook, are popular attractions for fans and tourists alike. Gamcheon Culture Village blends art, history, and vibrant culture, offering visitors a unique and unforgettable experience.
