Places to go in BUSAN!

여러분! 안녕하세요!!! 잘 지냈어요? 오랜만이에요!!!!
미안해요. 너무 바빠서 시간이 없었어요. 

Hello everyone! How have you been! It has been a long time!

So sorry. I was so busy that I do not have time.... 

I have went for my 4th trip to Korea!!! And have ventured to a lot of new places!!!


So for a start, since I have not talked about Busan yet, I will update for Busan!!!

And Busan is my MOST FAVORITE city in Korea, followed by Seoul.

Here are list of places you can go in Busan! Check them out!


1) Dongbaek Park












The island is famous for its beautiful scenery surrounded by tall camellias and thick pine groves. In nice weather, you can even see the Japanese Daema Island (Tsushima). The trek around the island as well as the trail leading up to the top are popular hiking trails, and the mermaid statue on the sea-side rock is also very well known.

2) Nampo-dong
A MUST visit place for you to eat and shop is Nampo-dong in Busan! This is a place which i will visit every time i am in Busan.

You can start your day at Yongdusan Park/Busan Tower for photos! And then you can start shopping at Gwangbokro Culture & Fashion Street. As you walk around, you will be hungry! So head to BIFF (Busan International Film Festival)! There you can find alot alot of street food!!!

3) Taejongdae (태종대)
Another place i enjoyed going to is Taejongdae (태종대), in Busan. This location is the closest point to the Japanese Island of Tsushima which u can see on a fine day. ^^

Oh yes! This was also one of the shooting location for the drama King 2Hearts whereby Lee Jae Ha (Lee Seung Gi) was held at gun point by Eun Shi Kyung (Jo Jeong Seok) and finally when Eun Shi Kyung was shot by the villain Kim Bong Gu (Yoon Je Moon).

Directions
From Busan Station, take Bus 88 or 101 and get off at Taejongdae (태종대)







Designated as a Busan monument, along with Oryukdo Island, Taejongdae (태종대) represents Busan, and is especially famous for its rock beach. Featuring its highest peak at 250 meters, there are forests of pine trees and other 200 varieties of trees. Taejongdae was named after the 29th king of Silla Kingdom BC57-AD 935), King TaeJong Mu-Yeol (604-661). King TaeJong had traveled to many places but this was the place he enjoyed shooting arrows.
