2025 Busan Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in August)
Busan is a port city and one of South Korea's important transportation hubs for sea, land, and air. Busan's coastal sightseeing spots primarily include bathing beaches and coastal parks. Haeundae Beach and Songdo Beach are favorite destinations for local residents. The city's attractions include historical sites, museums and art galleries. For families traveling with children, the SEA LIFE Busan Aquarium is a great destination to experience the glass bottom boat atop the shark tank. Art lovers can visit the Gamcheon Cultural Village to enjoy the colorful and artistically painted walls. Busan is famous for its seafood. You can eat all kinds of fresh hoe—Korean sashimi. The nightscape of Busan will sweep you off your feet, with the brilliant lights of Gwangandaegyo Bridge and the city reflected by the water. As you stroll along the harbor, it is an intoxicating experience.

It's crowded, and the weather is hot, but

I wonder who the guests will be today, and I'm really looking forward to how Psy will appear.

If you go to a Psy concert, there's a concession stand where you can purchase drinks and snacks.
Because it's a hot and physically demanding concert,
you'll need drinks, water, and snacks like energy bars throughout the show.😂

Even though my whole body was wet, my heart was burning hotter on this night.
Amidst the music and cheers that poured down like a baptism, yesterday's worries washed away, leaving only the excitement of today.
It wasn't just my clothes that were soaking wet; it was my heart, eager to beat again.

2025 First Drenched Show 🌊💦 From head to toe, even underwear, soaked like a sponge... I saw Lee Dae-ho and Choo Shin-soo ⚾ I thought it was a baseball stadium, but it turned out to be a water park ㅋㅋ Many people brought their parents, so next year I should bring my parents too and give them “filial piety = water therapy” - - #PsyDrenchShowReview #PsyDrenchShowPreparation #PsyDrenchShowPrediction

If you're going to the Dripping Show, wearing blue is a given!
Before the show starts, the front of the concert hall is covered in blue waves.
It feels like you've entered Smurf Village, lol.
If you don't have a blue costume, they're selling them in front of the concert hall, so you can buy one.
A concert that symbolizes summer👍
It's so exciting, I want to go every summer.

A bathroom break before the show is a must.
#PsyDrippingShowReview
#PsyDrippingShowPreparation
The Dripping Show is a nearly four-hour concert.
To avoid missing a moment, a bathroom break before the show is a must!
There are plenty of restrooms, both inside the concert hall
and outside the waiting area
so there was absolutely no inconvenience, even with the crowds.

Experience the small group breakdown of Busan Jeonpo's famous restaurants that have been waiting for years🩵
#AdventureMoment
Experience Soinsuhae, a popular restaurant in Jeonpo, Busan that's been waiting for years 🩵
🏷️Soinsuhae, a gopchang restaurant that grills the tripe on site.
This Jeonpo restaurant has a wait time of over an hour and a half.
Here's a tip: if you go during opening hours, like now in the middle of summer, you won't have to wait in line.
I recommend visiting during opening hours in the middle of summer.
📌Soinsuhae
📍 11 Dongcheon-ro 108beon-gil, Busanjin-gu, Busan. 1st Floor
🕖5:00 PM - 12:00 AM (Friday and Saturday, 1:00 AM)
- Assorted Grilled Tripe 20,000
- A famous restaurant for both the Assorted Grilled Tripe and the Gopchang Hotpot. The tripe is packed with flavor, with no offal or odor.
The staff grills it for you, making it convenient.
- The Chadol Daechang Fried Rice is delicious, topped with a generous fried egg.
- Highball for small groups is recommended.

Must-Visit Restaurant in Busan: Baekgaekdo
Introducing a must-visit restaurant in Busan for your foodie trip 😝
• Baekgaekdo
• 70 Geumjeongmaeul-ro, Dongnae-gu, Busan
This is a true gem that only operates for 3 hours a day, and it's worth the wait!
We ordered ganjajang (black bean sauce noodles), fried rice, and tangsuyuk (sweet and sour pork), and these three dishes come highly recommended 😝
The ganjajang was the most delicious, and the tangsuyuk was tender and flavorful as well ㅎㅎ
Make sure to visit!

Salt bread in Busan
#GetDiscountsWithoutLuck
This salt bread shop is incredibly popular in South Korea, with many branches. This time, I tried it in Busan, and the taste was exactly like the one in Seoul. They sell it in packs, not individually. A bag contains four pieces, and it costs 12,000 won. You can also buy them as souvenirs. Simply bake them in a hot pot, oven, or microwave.

Complete Busan Travel Guide
#TravelGuide
I'll give you the complete Busan summer travel guide.
This is a compilation of my absolute favorites, and I highly recommend you visit at least once.
I recommend visiting a cafe in Jeompo-dong, Busan, eating delicious food, and then visiting the cafes along Jeompo Cafe Street.
I also recommend taking the Donghae Express to Gijang and stopping by IKEA. IKEA is so close to Busan that it's a must-visit.
Gijang has many camping spots, so I recommend finding a camping spot and enjoying glamping. I recently went glamping in Busan, and it was all wonderful.
And because it's near the beach, it was absolutely fantastic. The right ticket had an ocean view, and I loved the delicious meat.

[Busan🇰🇷 Seomyeon] Right next to Seomyeon Station! Great location💯 Fully equipped with appliances💯 Recommended for long-term stays🏨
📍#GemStay
Excellent location, just a one-minute walk from Seomyeon Station Exit 12!
Access to shopping and cafe hopping in Seomyeon and Jeonpo was unbeatable! 🥺🤍
Plus, I stayed in a room equipped with a washing machine, kitchen, refrigerator, and even a microwave.
It felt like home! 🛋️
My clothes got so smelly from cooking,
but being able to wash them right away was really helpful! 🧺 lol
And, no-face-to-face self-check-in!
Your room number and unlock code will be confirmed on the day of check-in via the reservation site or 📧, so be sure to check! ☝🏻
⚠️Facilities may vary depending on the room type, so please check when booking.

[Busan🇰🇷 Gwangalli] A capsule hotel with only ocean views!? A photogenic hotel recommended for solo travelers, couples, and girls' trips
📍#hotel1
I can't believe I could see such a spectacular view from a capsule hotel...🌊✨
Solo traveler, just wanting to sleep, but also wanting to see the ocean...!
I found a hotel that can make that wish come true!
HOTEL1 in Busan's Gwangalli not only offers regular hotel rooms, but also a women-only capsule floor.👏🏻
I had the ocean all to myself.
I was truly impressed.🥺
By the way, the showers and toilets are shared, but they were clean and I had no problems staying there.✨
All of the seaview rooms are guaranteed to look great on social media!
Recommended for couples and girls' trips.🤍
⚠️The capsule hotel floors also have lockers for luggage, but they're not big enough to fit suitcases, so everyone left them in the public area!
It's a good idea to mark it so it doesn't get confused, and having a lock is a good idea. 👌🏻

[Busan🇰🇷Gwangalli] A hotel with a spectacular view of the Gwangalli sea! Perfect for couples and families!
📍#HomersHotel
HOMERS HOTEL is right in front of Gwangan Beach🏨
From your room, you can see the iconic Gwangan Bridge!
At night, you can enjoy the Gwangalli night view all to yourself🥹 (or maybe even two? lol)
If you time it right, you can even see the drone show and light-up display!
The view from the 6th floor lobby and lounge was amazing👏🏻
It's about a 10-minute walk from the nearest Geumnyeonsan Station.
Some roads are slightly sloped, so it might be a challenge if you're carrying a heavy suitcase!
But the path to the beach is also lovely, so walking is also a good option🤍
There are many stylish cafes and shops in Gwangan, so it's also recommended for exploring the Gwangan and Suyeong areas☝🏻
⚠️The sounds of slamming doors and footsteps bothered me a little, so if you wake up easily, I wouldn't recommend this hotel...
If you're someone who sleeps soundly at any time, this is definitely the place for you! LOL

Wow, Busan's people are killing it~❤️
The sea, the beach, and Dongbaekseom Island 🌊✨
What's there to see in Busan?
I took a capsule this time and also explored Haeundae.
But then I looked it up and found that
Dongbaekseom Island, once an island, is now connected to the mainland.
There's a well-maintained Dongbaek Coastal Trail inside.
It's a dream combination to be able to enjoy both the lush forest and the beach! 🌳🏖️
Busan is also incredibly convenient for transportation! 🚆
You can walk from Haeundae Station on Busan Subway Line 2.
There are also various buses, so no need to worry about getting around!
However, be aware that it can get a bit crowded during peak season. 😅
Conclusion? Haeundae Beach is Busan's pride, with its wide, clean white sand and beautiful natural scenery! 🏆

Summer rides? Here, you can get a refreshing splash...
I went to Lotte World in Busan! 🎢✨
📍 Address
: 42 Dongbusan Gwangwang-ro, Gijang-eup, Gijang-gun, Busan
If you go on a rainy day or a day with fewer people, you can enjoy yourself without waiting! ☔️💨
The Magic Pass is so short that it's unnecessary on weekdays.
It can get crowded on weekends, so consider it! 😉
Compared to Lotte World in Jamsil, Seoul...
1️⃣ Seoul has a wide variety of attractions and food! 🍔🎠
2️⃣ Busan feels a bit old-fashioned, and the lack of adult attractions is disappointing. 😅
3️⃣ Seoul also has a much wider variety of restaurants! 🍽️
But Busan still has its own charm! 🌊💕
You should definitely visit it when you travel to Busan!

Where can I enjoy a Psy-style show? Let's wear raincoats together☔️
I visited Lotte World Adventure in Busan! 🎢✨
Opened on March 31, 2022, this park is located in the Osiria Tourist Complex in Gijang County. It's 1.25 times larger than Seoul's Lotte World, but Seoul's ride density is said to be higher. 😅
While it's crowded on weekends, the lines are practically nonexistent, making for a pleasant experience! 🌞
1️⃣ Short wait times for rides
2️⃣ Even more fun on a nice day
3️⃣ Even more fun with friends
A day in Busan, a total healing experience! 💖

□ Songjeong 3rd Generation Gukbap (송정3대국밥)
📍 Seomyeon, Busan, Korea
About a 2-minute walk from Seomyeon Station.

It's open 24 hours a day, so you can visit any time of the day.
Daegi Gukbap
Suyuk
Daegi gukbap can be seasoned with salt or shrimp to taste. As expected from a popular restaurant, the soup was delicious, with a rich pork flavor.
Suyuk is boiled pork, but the meat is tender and delicious.
Enjoy Busan's specialty daegi gukbap at this popular restaurant!
