Discovering Busan, visitors will not be able to miss these attractive destinations:
Yongdusan Park, a mountain park said to resemble a dragon's head. Entering here, visitors will first admire the statue of Yi Sun-sin, a 16th-century Korean naval hero, located right on the outside campus. Standing on the steps at the foot of the statue, visitors can take photos of the panoramic view of the 118m-high Busan Tower. In addition, the bare but lively treetops of 70 different species in the 69,000 m² area of Yongdusan Park will contribute to creating an impression on the blue sky, as well as embellishing the lively landscape here. Stepping up to enter the inner campus, visitors will be impressed with the love lock corridor - where millions of heart-shaped locks are attached to the railing. Visitors will be taken by elevator from the 1st floor straight to the observation area at an altitude of 117m. Here, visitors can admire the panoramic view of the beautiful and modern coastal city of Busan. Each glass panel on the observatory clearly shows the name of the place you see when standing in that window. In this area, for only 500 won (equivalent to nearly 10,000 VND), visitors can create a bronze plate engraved with the image of Busan Tower as a souvenir.

Haedong Yonggungsa Temple is a Buddhist temple built next to the sea - this place is quite unique because most temples in Korea are usually located on the mountain. In front of the temple entrance is a statue of a wheel worshiped to wish good luck and safe traffic for those who visit the temple. The temple gate is guarded by two sturdy, majestic golden dragon pillars. Behind the temple gate is a path with 108 steps with cliffs on both sides. After only the first 18 steps, visitors will encounter a benevolent Buddha statue that is said to give birth to a son if you touch the nose of this Buddha statue, with each other point such as the belly, cheeks, and ears of the Buddha satisfying different wishes of visitors.
The Nurimaru APEC Conference Center is a building built to serve the APEC Conference in 2005. Entering the building, visitors will see artifacts and decorations that recreate the APEC event that took place, as well as traditional and creative Korean interior design. Located on Dongbaekseom Island, the camellia trees and endless pine trees, along with the scent of the blue sea, blend to create a poetic and pure space that will captivate any visitor who comes here.
