Busan in detail

When you think of South Korea, picturesque beaches and warm-natural springs may not be what you first imagine, but Busan was designed to surprise. This wonderful destination is ideal for those looking for relaxation, glamour and the chance for a little retail therapy.

In summertime Busan beaches are the city’s main attraction. Wander long stretches of perfect sands or swim in the beautiful blue waters that swarm with both local and overseas holidaymakers each year. If sunbathing isn't your cup of tea, Busan has plenty more to entice you. Visit the Busan Aquarium, home to 250 plus species of underwater creatures, or the fascinating Busan Museum which provides an interesting look at the relationship between Japan and Korea. To chill-out in style, visit Busan’s Spaland district which has over 22 different spas to choose from served by two natural springs.
