Jangsan Mountain

The home of the world-renowned Busan Film Festival, a year-round hotspot for cinephiles and architecture lovers, has one of the world’s largest cantilevered roofs.

Feel inspired and challenged in one of Busan’s top modern art museums, where fascinating exhibitions, challenging pieces and a wide array of genres await.

Pull on ice skates, practice your golf swing or slip into a spa at the world’s largest department store. You’ll find great shopping and dining too, of course.

Site of the 2005 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation conference, this Busan landmark has both modern architecture and a role in history on display in an elegant park.

Let your cares float away while you bob on a tube just off Korea’s most famous beach, where locals and tourists come to see and be seen.

After a day on the beach, relax with table games and slot machines at a small casino near the area’s restaurants and bars, not far from the ocean.
