Recommended Local Courses in Busan
From North Port to Yeongdo
1. North Port Water Park
One of the most talked-about places in Busan recently is the North Port Water Park!
Recently, a 3.5m shark appeared in the park's waterway,
making headlines across the nation.
In fact, the North Port Water Park has been recognized as a new tourist destination in Busan.
It's conveniently located near Busan Station, making it a great stop at the beginning or end of your journey.
As you enter the park, you'll be greeted with stunning views of the sea and Busan Port.
On a sunny day, it's perfect for a leisurely walk while enjoying the unique harbor scenery.
One of the highlights is the scenic waterway that runs through the park.
Walking along the waterway, you'll encounter various bridges and lush greenery,
each offering a slightly different view.
I recommend taking your time to enjoy a relaxed stroll while admiring the reflections of the sky and surroundings on the water.

2. Kkangkkangi Art Village
Located in Daepyeong-dong, Yeongdo-gu, Busan,
Kkangkkangi Art Village is a unique place to experience the history of Busan's port and shipbuilding.
This area is known as the starting point of modern shipbuilding in Korea.
In the past, workers would hammer away at the rust and old paint on ships,
and the sound of 'kkangkkang' gave the village its name!
Since 2016, with urban regeneration projects, Daepyeong-dong has been gradually transforming.
While preserving the old shipyards and port scenery,
the village now features art installations and various attractions.
Be sure to visit the Kkangkkangi Village Museum for more insights.
Here, you can learn about the history of shipbuilding and the stories of local residents through photos and videos.
Walking through the village after visiting the museum offers a different perspective on the surroundings.
Unlike flashy tourist spots, you can still see shipyards and workshops,
which is part of the charm of Kkangkkangi Art Village.

3. Huinyeoul Culture Village
If you're traveling to Yeongdo, you must visit Huinyeoul Culture Village!
The coastal paths lined with cafes and shops lead down to the beautiful blue sea,
creating a charming and exotic atmosphere.
Instead of following a fixed route,
it's best to stroll through the alleys while enjoying the ocean view.
Each alley has its own unique charm, making it perfect for a leisurely exploration.
If you want to experience the coastal scenery up close,
take a relaxed walk on a nice day!

4. Atelier:O Cafe
As you walk through Huinyeoul Culture Village, you'll notice lovely cafes with stunning sea views.
One such place to take a break is Atelier:O!
Upon entering, you'll be greeted by a breathtaking view of the blue sea through large windows.
Seating is available on both the first and second floors,
with the second floor being particularly nice for enjoying the sea view.
The cafe also features soft, calming music,
making it a perfect spot to unwind and relax.
They offer a variety of drinks, desserts, and light snacks.
After exploring the alleys and coastal scenery of Huinyeoul Culture Village,
stop by Atelier:O to enjoy some music and take a moment to relax.
