Busan Day Tour: Haedong Yonggungsa Temple + Haeundae Beach + Busan Tower + Jagalchi Market | Japanese-speaking Guide, Hotel Pick-up & Lunch Included

－ Spot Introduction －

・Haedong Yonggungsa Temple
Built on a cliff along the coast, this temple dates back to the late Goryeo Dynasty. Although it was destroyed during the Japanese invasions of Korea, it was rebuilt in the 1930s. As one of the three major Avalokitesvara sacred sites in Korea, it is said that descending the 108 steps from the entrance to the main hall helps one forget 108 worldly desires, find peace of mind, and extend one's lifespan.

・Haeundae Beach
Often called the 'Shonan' of Korea, its beauty is counted among the Eight Scenic Views of Korea. It is Korea's premier beach resort, attracting many tourists from home and abroad in the summer. With its long white sandy beach and shallow waters without strong tides, Haeundae Beach is also known as a perfect spot for swimming.

・Dongbaek Park
The entire small island of Dongbaekseom is a park, and it is also home to the Nurimaru APEC House, where the 2005 APEC Summit was held. It is also a place mentioned in the lyrics of the song 'Come Back to Busan Port' by Cho Yong-pil.
* Nurimaru APEC House is closed every Monday, so we will stroll through the surrounding park and walking trails instead.

・Busan Tower (Yongdusan Park)
Located in the heart of Busan, this symbolic park sits on a small hill 180 meters above sea level. The 120-meter-tall Busan Tower stands in the center of the park. From the tower's observation deck, you can overlook Busan Port, the surrounding downtown areas, and the islands; on clear days, you can even see Tsushima Island across the sea. The night view from evening onwards is particularly spectacular.
* Admission to the Busan Tower observation deck is not included. Those who wish to enter may pay on-site. (Admission is not required for areas outside the observation deck, such as the park and the first floor.)

・Jagalchi Market
The highlight of this market is tasting fresh seafood caught at Busan Port right on the spot. You can have fish swimming in the tanks at the storefronts prepared as sashimi right there. After seeing the lively fish sold by the rows of street vendors, why not try some sashimi of the seafood you chose yourself? The second floor of the recently renovated Jagalchi Market building is a dried goods market, perfect for buying light and compact souvenirs like dried seaweed and dried fish.
