Busan

Busan’s terrain ranges from lowlands at the Nakdong River estuary in the west to wooded hills around Geumjeongsan in the north, giving the city a tightly folded coastal form. On the Korea Strait, South Korea’s second-largest city is built around an active harbour system and a long, indented shoreline. Haeundae Beach and Gwangalli Beach are among its best-known urban waterfronts, while mountain slopes remain close to dense neighbourhoods. The Port of Busan is the country’s largest, and Jagalchi Market is a major focal point of the city’s seafood trade and everyday food culture.
