Leading from the Busan Port to Sanbok Road, this steep staircase is as high as a six-storey building and you’re invited to climb it.

During your trip to Busan, you can enjoy retail therapy at Gwangbok-Dong. While in this culturally rich area, you can savour the top-notch restaurants.

Examine a series of monuments and take photos of the panoramic views from a lookout tower at this hilltop park in downtown Busan.

Shop for clothing, homeware and souvenirs and sample typical Korean street food at this sprawling and lively market that is popular with locals.

One of Busan’s most energetic areas centers on this neighborhood that started a major international film festival. Shop, dine and view celebrity handprints.
