About Busan
South Korea's second city cascades down impossibly steep hillsides with colorful stacked houses tumbling toward a bustling port, creating one of Asia's most visually striking urban landscapes. Fishing boats crowd the harbor while seafood restaurants serve ultra-fresh catches feet from where fishing nets still operate. This energetic city pulses with working-class grit and cultural pride.
