Busan, officially Busan Metropolitan City, is the second most populous city in South Korea, after Seoul; it has a population of over 3.3 million as of 2024. It is the economic, cultural and educational center of southeastern South Korea, with its port being South Korea's busiest and the sixth-busiest in the world. The surrounding "Southeastern Maritime Industrial Region" is South Korea's largest industrial area. The large volumes of port traffic and urban population in excess of 1 million makes Busan a Large-Port metropolis using the Southampton System of Port-City classification. As of 2025, Busan Port is the primary port in Korea and the world's sixth-largest container port.

Let's start with Haeundae Beach, one of the most popular beaches in Korea. With its crystal-clear waters and white sand, this beach is perfect for swimming and sunbathing. You can also take a stroll down the boardwalk, enjoy some street food, or even catch a movie at the outdoor cinema.

If you're interested in history and culture, head over to the Beomeosa Temple. This ancient temple dates back to the 7th century and is a must-visit attraction for anyone who wants to experience the spiritual side of Busan. The temple complex features several halls and buildings, including the main hall which houses the Buddha statue.
