Busan

Sea, markets, temples, neighborhoods, and the energy of Korea’s great southern port.

Busan is a city shaped by the sea. Mountains rise behind dense neighborhoods, markets spill into old streets, temples look toward the coast, and beaches open the city toward the horizon.

From historic markets and hillside villages to coastal walks, temples, beaches, and seafood, Busan offers a side of Korea that feels distinctly different from Seoul.

A City Facing the Sea

Busan is not simply Korea’s second-largest city. It is a city whose character is inseparable from the sea — open, energetic, layered, and constantly changing.
