Pusan Travel Guide

When travelling in Korea, Busan offers a different feeling from the other big cities.  It is laid out in a more spread out fashion, and while there are the same apartment buildings everywhere, the waterfront has some beautiful buildings, and a nice sandy beach.  Unfortunately, the beach is constantly covered tip to tip in parasols, so if you want to lie on the beach to get a tan, you have to look carefully to find a spot.

There isn't much going on in this city during the winter, but the people are friendly and helpful.  Many of the temples are recreations, which is slightly disappointing, though Beomeosa is definitely worth the effort.  Beautiful even in the winter, but crowded, it was truly an enjoyable experience.

Interesting place, great food, be on your gaurd. Pick pockets ranging from 4 yrs. old +. Great party strip 5 miles from harbor. Fascinating naval displays for military personel. Don't drink the water, stick to the bottled drinks. The famous towers from the movie "Entrapment" located in the capital.
