Busan is becoming must visit city for foreigners
Busan is loved by international tourists all over the world for its convenience in large cities, beautiful natural environments, and unique local sensibilities.
The specific reasons why Busan has rapidly emerged as a global hot place to be called the "Busan disease" among foreign tourists are as follows.

🌊 Combining the sea and a large city, the seven beaches with different charms: Gwangalli, a combination of colorful skyline and night sea, Haeundae Beach with luxurious resort vibes, and Songjeong, a surfing holy place. Relaxing lifestyle: Instead of feeling fast and crowded like Seoul, you can enjoy a calmer and more leisurely recreational rhythm with the cool sea and sea right next to the city center.
🏡 Differentiated from Seoul, rugged and unique 'local emotional' alleyway emotional travel: Beyond the colorful landmarks, rugged and exotic old downtown alleys such as Bongrae-dong in Yeongdo-gu, Ami-dong in Seo-gu, and White Yeoul Culture Village in Yeongdo are in the spotlight as open-run courses for MZ generation foreign tourists.

Different visual delights: Gamcheon Culture Village, also known as "Korea's Santorini," or Haeundae Blue Line Park (Sky Capsule), which runs on the sea, is popular as a must-see photo course on SNS such as Instagram.

🍜 Strong location as a 'gourmet city.' Unique gastronomic culture: Fresh seafood as well as local sounds that can only be tasted properly in Busan, such as pork soup, wheat noodles, and seed hotels, are capturing the taste of foreigners. Global gastronomic event: It hosts world-class gastronomic events such as the publication of Michelin Guide and Asia's 50 Best Restaurants, with a wide gourmet spectrum ranging from high-end dining to street food.

🎫 Excellent 'cost-effectiveness' and convenient tourism infrastructure Reasonable travel cost: Compared to other megacities in Asia such as Tokyo and Seoul, it is recognized as a high-end destination for cost-effective travel due to its relatively low cost of accommodation, gourmet, and transportation. Foreigners-only benefits: It is very convenient to travel alone because it has a mobile payment system such as "Visit Busan Pass" that combines public transportation, access to major tourist destinations, and discounts.

✈️ Cruise and Diversified Accessibility Marine leisure and cruise activation: The attraction of world-class cruise ships and the expansion of night tour programs ('Star Sea Busan') have enriched the contents for staying and enjoying. Medium and long-distance routes: With the expansion of new air routes at Gimhae International Airport, tourists from Asia (Taiwan, Japan, China, etc.) and Western countries who enter the country directly without passing through Seoul are constantly visiting.
