Haeundae in Pusan

One of the most famous beaches in Korea, Haeundae Beach in Pusan.
Pusan is the second biggest city in Korea.
The first thing you can do in Haeundae is watching the sun rise. As you can see in the picture, the sun luminates like blast furnance. It is so beautiful that thousands of people go and watch the sunrise.

After you watch the sunrise, you should head toward the Haeundae Beach, which is only couple minutes away, and enjoy the surfing, tubing, and water skiing! Especially, around July, you might be able to see half of the Korean population at this beach. To feel the summer thoroughly, don't miss the Haeundae Beach!
Next place is the aquarium. There are 250 different kinds of aquatic animals, and you can actually touch them in the "Touching Pool."

Around the late afternoon, you should head toward the "Gyaung-An Bridge." It is the longest bridge across the ocean in Korea, and its high tech system of the lights fascinate people by changing the color every day and every season. There are great places that you can seat and enjoy the beautiful view of the night in front of the Gyaung-An Bridge.

As the second biggest city in Korea, Pusan has many fascinating places you can visit. Enjoy the nature and the harmonious architects around it!

Full of advantures in Lotte World!

Lotte World is one of the famous amusement parks in Korea.
I am not a big fan of rollercosters or any other "scary" rides, but if you enjoy extreme rides, you will have so much fun! There are also a lot of events and parades at certain intervals.

The Best 5 of the Lotte World


Atlantic Adventure: It's the Roller Coaster and Flume ride incorporated! And, it's got the extra view as a bonus


Gyro Drop: A free fall at the speed of 100 kilometers an hour from the height of 70 meters is full of fun!


Pharaoh's Fury: It is a multi motion dark ride for all family members. Feel every moment of your ride as if you were actually behind the steering wheel. 1 km-long waiting leg loaded with items reminiscent of the national Egyptian museum will keep your excitement even while you wait for the thrills~

World Canival Parade: The highlight of Lotte World Adventure! Experience 30 minutes of festival, songs and dance from around the world around the ice rink.

Laser Show: A midnight express of fantasy with the background of Lotte World Adventure. Enjoy the largest laser circus show from the outer space performed by the people coming down from the Galaxy!
