Itinerary

Gwangandaegyo Bridge

Passing by

It's the land mark of Busan, where you can see the highlight scenery of Busan with Haewundae beach and Marine city! This is the place where you can feel modern Busan !

Gwangan Bridge, also known as Diamond Bridge, is Busan’s most iconic landmark. This double-decker bridge stretches over 7 km across the sea and connects Haeundae with the rest of the city. At night, its LED lights create a beautiful, colorful show over the water.
Haedong Yonggungsa

one hour

After your tour guide picks you up at Busan International Cruise Terminal, you will head to Haedong Yonggung Temple.

This place offers tourists a chance to know two birds with one stone- head up for second-to-none panoramic views of the ocean against the city, and learn more about traditional Korean religion.
UN Memorial Cemetery

one hour

The UN Memorial Cemetery in Korea honors UN soldiers from 16 countries and UN aids from five countries that were killed in battle during the Korean War from 1950-1953. This serene park spreads across a grassy plain area of 135,000 square meters. Some notable sites and memorials include: Memorial Service Hall, Memorabilia Hall, two Turkish Monuments, Greek Monument, Australian Monument, British Common Wealth Monument and two ponds. The Memorial Service Hall and the Memorabilia Hall were constructed in 1964 and 1968 respectively. The citizens of Busan dedicated the Main Gate in 1966. There are many annual events held here such as April’s Tributary Ceremony of the Veterans of the Korean War, May’s American Memorial Day, June’s Korean Memorial Day, and October’s UN Ceremony Day.
Yeongdo Kangkangee Arts Village

Take a relaxing break at P.ARK, a stylish cultural complex on Busan’s Yeongdo Island. Enjoy a freshly brewed coffee or a fresh-baked pastry from the bakery while looking out over the beautiful Busan coastline. There’s no rush here. Sit back, breathe in the sea air, and enjoy a peaceful moment before continuing your journey. It’s the perfect place to rest, recharge, and take a few memorable photos.
Busan Gamcheon Culture Village

Here is one historically rich mountainside cultural quarter. It was originally settled by refugees during the Korean War. You will see tiny hillside homes and nifty collection of clever decorative pieces installed by art students. After Gamcheon Culture Village, you will have lunch. Your guide will take you to local restaurant.
BIFF Square

one hour

BIFF Square, Gukje market and Jagalchi fish market are close to each other, Just next to each other!

BIFF Square is a lively street in Busan’s Nampo-dong district, named after the Busan International Film Festival. The pavement is decorated with handprints of famous film stars, and the street is full of snack stalls. It’s a fun place to enjoy local street food, such as sweet seed-filled pancakes called “hotteok.”

Gukje Market is one of Busan’s oldest and liveliest traditional markets. It began after the Korean War and grew into a maze of shops selling clothes, kitchenware, souvenirs, and street snacks. It’s a great place to feel everyday local life and try Busan’s famous treats.

Jagalchi Market is Korea’s largest seafood market, located right by Busan’s harbor. Fresh fish, shellfish, and other seafood from the sea are sold here every day. It’s a lively place to see Busan’s fishing culture up close and, if you like, to enjoy fresh seafood nearby.
