Busan Songdo Cable Car | Essential Travel Guide (High Cost-Effectiveness + Photogenic)
Key Highlights: Korea's first sea cable car, a 12-minute journey across the sea, connecting mountains, sea, and panoramic views of the port city. Beautiful in all seasons, suitable for couples/families/photographers, offering excellent value.
I. Core Photo Spots (100% Photo Guarantee)
1. Starting Point: Songdo Beach Station
- Must-Do: Take photos with the cartoon sculptures (dolphin/octopus) outside the station, take a short walk on the beach (play in the sand in summer).
- Tips: Purchase tickets on-site outside of holidays; waiting time ≤ 10 minutes.
2. During the Cable Car Ride
- Cabin Options: Standard Cabin (high cost-effectiveness, excellent view); Crystal Clear Cabin (wave-viewing view, not recommended for those with a fear of heights).
- Must-Shoot: Frame the cable car with the Yonggung Cloud Bridge, the rocky outcrops, and the Busan Port Bridge with distant views of massive ships.
3. Destination: Sky Park Station
- 3rd Floor Observation Deck: Overlooking the cable car and Songdo Bay in panoramic view, take photos with the "Little Prince and the Fox" sculpture (ideal for couples/families).
- Hilltop Park: Cherry blossoms in spring, autumn foliage viewing, lawns perfect for picnics/relaxation.
- Nearby Extensions: 10-minute walk to Yonggung Cloud Bridge (transparent bridge surface, amazing experience); 20-minute walk to Amnam Park (hidden photo spots, perfect for capturing the cable car and suspension bridge together).
4. Must-Visit Nearby Areas (Connecting Attractions)
- Gamcheon Culture Village (10-minute drive): Graffiti walls, unique shops, pick up a map and follow the directions, rest at the Little Prince Café.
- Nampo-dong (15-minute drive): Shopping and snacks, vibrant night market atmosphere.
- Yonggungsa Temple (20-minute drive): Seaside cliff temple, stunning sunset views.
II. Must-Try Foods (Authentic and Guaranteed)
Food Type | Highlights | Recommended Shop
Busan Seafood Hot Pot | Fresh seafood, paired with vegetables/tofu, incredibly flavorful. Seafood restaurant near Songdo Beach.
Grilled Eel | Freshly killed and grilled, brushed with a secret sauce, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. "Wonjo Grilled Eel Restaurant" in Nampo-dong (30-year-old establishment).
Spicy Rice Cakes | Soft, chewy, and spicy, served with fish cakes. Street stalls in Nampo-dong/"Stir-fried Squid Street".
Fish Cake Skewers | Street food, cooked in fish cake soup, can be dipped in sweet and spicy sauce. Subway station/pedestrian street stalls.
Busan Cold Noodles | Buckwheat noodles in clear broth, refreshing and cooling, served with beef/kimchi. "Busan Cold Noodle Specialty Shop" near Songdo Beach.
Special Drinks: Banana Milk (available at convenience stores), Rice Milk (traditional sweet and sour), Korean Beef Latte (Sky Park "Mountain and Sea Cafe").
III. Avoiding Pitfalls (Skip the Detours)
1. Ticket Purchase Pitfalls
- No advance reservation required, tickets can be purchased on-site; arrive early on holidays (waiting time may exceed 30 minutes).
- Don't blindly follow the trend of the Crystal Carriage; the regular carriages offer better value. Those with a fear of heights should be cautious when choosing the transparent carriages.
- Seniors (65+), children (6-12 years old), and disabled persons can enjoy ticket discounts with valid identification.
2. Avoiding Sightseeing Pitfalls
- Avoid peak seasons in summer/holidays/weekends; weekdays/off-peak seasons offer a better experience.
- Check the weather forecast in advance: visibility is poor on rainy/windy days, and services may be suspended; prioritize sunny/cloudy days.
- Do not climb rocks (slippery and dangerous); stay in designated areas.
- Protect yourself from the sun in summer and dress warmly in winter (strong sea breezes).
3. Avoiding Dining Pitfalls
- Restaurants inside the station are expensive; prioritize restaurants near Songdo Beach/Nampo-dong.
- Choose reputable seafood restaurants to avoid eating stale seafood (which can cause stomach upset).
- Eat spicy food in moderation to avoid getting a sore throat or stomach upset.
IV. Quick Itineraries (Suitable for Different Time Slots)
1. One-Day Tour (Complete Coverage of Classic Activities)
9:00-12:00: Songdo Cable Car → Sky Park → Yonggung Cloud Bridge (Lunch: Songdo Seafood Restaurant)
13:30-17:00: Gamcheon Culture Village (Rest at The Little Prince Cafe)
17:00-20:00: Nampo-dong (Shopping + Grilled Eel/Squid, Night Market)
2. Half-Day Tour (Time-Constricted)
3 Hours: Songdo Cable Car → Sky Park Observatory → Hilltop Park → Cable Car Return
V. Tips
- Best Time to Visit: Spring (March-April for Cherry Blossoms), Autumn (October-November for Autumn Foliage), Summer Nights (Light Shows) - Items to bring: sunscreen, sunglasses (summer); thick coat, scarf (winter); camera (for photography enthusiasts).

You can go all the way up to the 100th floor and have a view on a small part of Busan from all the way up. It was pretty fun. Lots of sides where you could take great pictures off of.
Great views, really recommend if you're visiting Haeundae. It was not too crowded, and there are some cafés upstairs, at least a Starbucks. Plenty of places to take photos.

Really enjoy my time at Spa Land, great abd cleaned facility.
I always get rubbed while watching Korean dramas, so I wanted to try it. It's actually quite suitable to come here with a red-eye camera. It's not very crowded in the morning. But there are many local women. There's a self-service instant noodle shop for about 100 yuan a bowl. It's quite expensive, actually. But I decided to give it a try. The three of us bought three bowls, haha

Nice little attraction park. Still a lot of construction going on for new attractions. However, we enjoyed it so much as we did not need to spend hours in the queue; the longest was only half an hour. Still have decent attractions to ride!
Compared to Seoul Lotte, it is smaller, but the project is new and overall worth the money. You can buy a speed pass, which is divided into 2 times and 4 times, and you can choose any project. When I came, it happened to be Children's Day in Korea, so I bought a 4-time pass for 27,000 won, which saved a lot of time.

Agak kecil tapi yang penting ada ubur-uburnya. So satisfying. Harga ticket juga ok. Lokasi di pantai juga, jadi before masuk aquarium bisa ke pantai dulu.
You can see a lot of marine life, and I didn't expect there are penguins here. In addition, the most worthwhile experience is being able to touch unborn baby sharks and starfish with your own hands😊👍

It's not bad. You have to queue up to exchange for a paper ticket at the scene, and then queue up to take the cable car to the starting point of the slide on the mountain. After sliding to the end, you have to queue up again to continue. After the end, you can use the QR code of the helmet to view your photos and videos on the spot. If you like, you can buy it. It takes 15 minutes to take a taxi to Mipo, so you can play together.
redeemed the tickets as part of visit busan pass (very easy to do). fun activity to do with friends and family! weather is very comfortable around Oct period. there were many school students too.as this area is not near the main city area, remember to factor in some transport time or accommodation accordingly. luge is next to lotte adventure world so we went there on the same day!)

A very beautiful area to visit! We went to a coffee shop at the top to get the perfect view of the whole village. There is a lot of food and shops to buy souveniers. Also look out for all the references to the Little Prince movie.
1️⃣🌈 Colorful Staircase Village: The cascading, multicolored houses resemble an overturned palette! When the sun shines down, the dreamlike atmosphere is captivating! Every corner holds a surprise! 2️⃣ 🤴The Loneliness and Romance of the Little Prince: A must-see! Sit side by side with the Little Prince on the cliff edge, overlooking the colorful village and the sea. 🌊 You'll need to wait in line, so it can be quite crowded! 3️⃣ 🎨 Cute Murals & Art Installations: The village is filled with murals and sculptures created by countless artists, featuring fish, cats, and flowers... These are so cute and full of playful fun, making them a fun place to interact with and take photos! 4️⃣ 🛍️ Hidden Gems: Discover a plethora of artisanal shops, cafes, and cultural and creative stores! Grab a unique souvenir and enjoy a beautiful afternoon tea ☕️—perfect for a relaxing getaway!

Были в ClubD Oasis в выходной день, людей было не так много, как ожидалось. Условия были довольно комфортные - нам выдавали удобные пижамные костюмы и небольшое полотенце, можно воспользоваться хорошими косметическими средствами (шампунь, кондиционер для волос, гель для душа, лосьон для тела). Мы заранее прочитали правила посещения (рекомендую сделать это всем) и взяли с собой головные уборы, а также аквашузы. Очень понравилась наружная часть комплекса: чудесная водная горка (можно кататься вдвоем), бассейн с видом на пляж Haeundae, ванны с подогревом. Бани не сильно впечатлили, мы привыкли к русским баням. Есть хороший ресторан с японской кухней. В целом мы хорошо провели время, рекомендую! Бронирование на trip.com было удобным, персонал быстро оформил нам входные билеты по ваучеру.
Club D Oasis offers a lively atmosphere with great music, delicious drinks, and friendly staff. The venue has a vibrant energy, making it perfect for a night out with friends or a fun weekend hangout. The service is efficient, and the ambiance is both trendy and comfortable. Whether you're looking to dance, enjoy cocktails, or simply relax, this place has something for everyone. Overall, a fantastic spot for entertainment and socializing. Definitely worth a visit!
