Soak Away the Stress: Busan is home to world-class natural hot-spring facilities. Strip off and relax, Korean style.
Shop up a Storm: Whether you are more at home browsing high-end boutiques or rummaging at market stalls, you'll find plenty of places to fill your suitcase and empty your wallet.
The Busan International Film Festival: Every October Busan becomes "the Cannes of Asia" with both stars and fans visiting in droves.
Sun, Sea, and Sand, in the Heart of the City: Busan's clean inner-city beaches are a sea of umbrellas during summer months.
A Seafood Lovers' Paradise: If it can be found in the ocean, you'll most likely be able to eat it at the Jagalchi markets.
