Busan is the second largest city in Korea. Its deep harbor and gentle tides have helped it grow into the largest container-handling port in the country and the fifth-largest in the world. The city's natural endowments and rich history have led to Busan's growing reputation as a world-class city for tourism and culture, as well as a hotspot for international conventions.

Tour stops: Bulguksa Temple and Seokguram Grotto - Cheomseongdae Observatory - Royal Tomb of King Muyeol - Gyeongju National Museum

1. Bulguksa Temple and Seokguram Grotto

Seokguram Grotto and Bulguksa Temple are among the ancient Buddhist temples of Korea. They were established in the mid-8th century, during the golden era of the United Silla Dynasty and represent the highly developed architectural skills and creative craftsmanship of the Silla people. The magnificent and sublime beauty of Seokguram’s carvings and Bulguksa Temple’s stylobate and two stone pagodas makes them masterpieces of Buddhist architecture, unparalleled in all of Northeast Asia.

Seokguram Grotto is an artificial cave made of granite. Inside the circular main hall is the statue of Bonjon Buddha, surrounded by his disciples on the walls. The majority of the stone statues, including the Bonjon figure, are high-value cultural patrimony as they have survived the passage of time, maintaining their original structure since the 8th century.

Bulguksa Temple, which literally translates to “Temple of the Land of Buddha,” was built to portray aspiration for Buddha’s utopia. The temple was damaged in 1592 during the Imjin War, when all its wooden structures burned down completely. The stone altars, bridges, pagodas, lanterns, and bronze statues of Buddha escaped the fire, and are well preserved to date. A partial restoration was conducted from 1969 to 1973, resulting in the current structure.

Cheomseongdae is the oldest existing astronomical observatory in Asia. Constructed during the reign of Queen Seon-deok (632-647), it was used to observe the stars in order to forecast the weather.Cheomseongdae was built in a cylindrical shape using stones that measured 30 cm in diameter. Three-hundred and sixty-two stones were piled up to make 27 levels. Roughly 4.16 m up from the bottom, there is a 1㎡ square entrance with space to hang a ladder under it. The inside is filled with soil up to the 12th level, and the 19th, 20th, 25th, and 26th levels all have long rocks hanging on two areas, which are shaped like the Chinese letter '井' (jeong).

This is the Royal Tomb of King Muyeol, the 29th monarch of the Silla Kingdom (654-661). He allied his forces with those of the Chinese Tang Dynasty and unified the Korean peninsula. This large tomb has a circumference of 114 meters and is 8.7 meters high. Natural stones were piled on the bottom of the tomb, and they remain buried underground. The monument stone is gone, leaving only the turtle-shaped base stone and the dragon-carved head stone. Carved in relief is the inscription, “Taejongmuyeolwangneungbi,” indicating who the owner of the monument was.

Gyeongju National Museum was founded in 1945, immediately after the Japanese occupation ended. Prior to that, Gyeongju had only one small museum facility, about the size of one of the current exhibition rooms. A major turning point for the museum came in 1975, when it moved into a new building at its current location in Inwang-dong. For the city and people of Gyeongju, the relocation of the museum was a huge event. Residents of Gyeongju turned out in droves to watch the Bell of King Seongdeok being moved. The new premises comprised the main building (today's Archaeology Hall), the annex building (today's Special Exhibition Hall), and a new belfry to house the Bell of King Seongdeok. Architect Lee Hui-tae (1925-1981) designed the buildings. The main building, surrounded by exterior pillars, recalls the style of a pavilion, particularly Gyeonghoeru Pavilion of Gyeongbokgung Palace in Seoul.The museum's collection consists primarily of cultural relics discovered during excavations and surface surveys in the Gyeongju area. Close to 4,500 items are currently on display as the permanent exhibition. Archaeology Hall consists of Exhibition Rooms 1, 2, and 3, and Gukeun Memorial Room. This hall is home to the gold crowns of Silla and other classic artifacts of Silla. Art Hall consists of Buddhist Arts Rooms 1 and 2, the Inscriptions Room and Hwangnyongsa Room. Buddhist sculptures are also on display in the ground-floor lobby and at the mezzanine level.

On the subway map, you will see the names of a number of markets

spread out close to Line 1. Most of them date back almost half a century.

This unique grouping enables travelers to experience Korea’s lively and

exciting market culture without having to travel far to see each market’s

unique features and products. The most famous markets are Jagalchi

Market, the largest seafood market in Korea, which is located close to

Jagalchi and Nampo Stations; Gukje Market, which deals almost entirely

with merchandise imported through Busan Port; Nampodong Street;

Bupyeong (Kkangtong) Market; and BIFF Square. They attract people in

their hundreds to check out the food stalls and various stores.

One other worthwhile stop on line 2 is Gwangan Station, with Busan

Gwangandaegyo Bridge built above Gwangalli Beach. This magnificent

bridge over the sea is 7.4-km long, and it is famous for its dazzling night

display, made of many small light fixtures. If you are not a fan of walking

tours, there's a way to enjoy all these sites without having to walk to them

– the Busan City Tour Bus! The bus will take you to Haeundae Beach,

Bongsudae (Beacon Fire Station) of Hwangnyeongsan Mountain, and many

more stops

Busan beats all other major cities thanks to its beautiful nightscape, which

the sea reflects splendidly. The Bay 101, which opened in May 2014, is

becoming one of the hottest places in Haeundae from which to view the

city's night scenery. The facility is similar to a luxurious yacht club, equipped

with a café, gallery, restaurants, and more. It is close to Dongbaek Station,

Exit 1. After walking for 10 minutes or so, you'll see the large, gorgeous

building situated near the seashore. Its eateries are especially popular

during the summer, when they are transformed into open space. Sitting at

one of the rooftop tables with a cool sea breeze will make for a wonderful

time with good food, drinks, and friends. Its location, near The Westin

Chosun Busan, is easy to find.
