Gukje Market was formed after the Korean War as US army items and other goods were gathered at the refugee capital of Busan. Along with Bupyeong Kkangtong Market, Jagalchi Market, and Bosu Book Street, Gukje Market forms the “Original Mega Commercial District of Busan.” Recently, with the success of the movie “Ode to My Father,” which centers on Gukje Market, the place welcomed its second golden era. Start exploring Gukje Market from Kkotbunine, featured in the film “Ode to My Father.”
Good food is essential in the market. Visit street vendors and eat Chungmu Gimbap, Bbibim dangmyeon (spicy glass noodles), eomuk (fish cake) and tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes), fritters, and blood sausages for an authentic experience of the market.

The steep wall of the Jeoryeong Coastal Trail is a unique view of the village, where you can see small houses clustered along the narrow alley formed by the coast at the end of the cliff. This is where the sorrowful lives of refugees began and where the current cultural village community of Huinnyeoul Culture Village has been established.
Huinnyeoul-gil, the representative original downtown center of Busan, was named after the current of water at the foot of the Bongnaesan Mountain that resembles the white falling snow. In December 2011, the old house was remodeled and renovated into a unique Culture and Art Village that reflects the life in Yeongdo.
Huinnyeoul-gil consists of 14 alleys as well as cozy cafés, workshops, and independent bookstores. The ocean breeze enters the slow-paced alleys, and the greenery between rocks add relaxation to daily life. One of the must-visit places on Huinnyeoul-gil is the Huinnyeol Jeomppang, where you can enjoy the best ramen noodles while gazing at the vast ocean. A moment of peace enters the mind as you enjoy your meal after a long day of walking. The end of the road connects to the Jeoryeong Coastal Trail once again and reunites with travelers who walked between the cliffs and the lands below.

It was designated as Korea's eighth national park in 1971 as one of the five famous mountains in Honam and one of the eight scenic spots representing Korea. The area is 80.708 square kilometers. Naejangsan Mountain, whose main peak is Sinseonbong Peak (763m), has been called the "Geumgang River in Honam" since ancient times because the peaks are about 700m high, and the top of the peaks are made of unique strange rocks.
Naejangsan Mountain was originally called Yeongunsan Mountain after Yeongeunsa Temple, but now it was called Naejangsan(內藏山) because it was said that hidden things in the mountain were endless.

Gemstone is an unique cafe in Busan Nampodong that is located inside a swimming pool!
Gemstone became a HOT cafe between Busan locals because you can eat coffee and desserts in the middle of the pool.
Cafe Gemstone was made after remodeling old swimming pools in Yeongdo. The floor tiles and rail lines of the pool were kept as it originally was, so viewing the unique interior was also very fun. Gemstone is the only cafe that is located inside a swimming pool.
Gemstone is famous as a delicious bakery in Busan. It is made by a baker who has 20 years experience, and all of the bread are produced the day that it is sold. You can choose which bread to buy according to your preference.

Donghwasa Temple (동화사) is located on the south side of Palgongsan Mountain, about 22km northeast of Daegu. It was built by Monk Geukdal in the 15th year of King Soji’s reign (AD 493). The original name of the temple was Yugasa Temple, but Simjiwangsa rebuilt the temple under King Heungdeok (r. AD 826-836) and named it Donghwasa Temple, which means even during the winter season, the paulownia tree still blooms.
Donghwasa’s Daeungjeon is segmented into 3 sections at the front and side, and its natural looking pillars are one of its main attractions. It includes the statues of Seokgamonibul, Amitabul, and Yaksayeoraebul inside. If you walk down the stone stairs beside Bongseoru and walk along the cement road for a while, you will find the huge Seokjoyaksa Yeoraebul. Created as a prayer for reunification, this large Buddha statue is 17m high. The stone tower, stone light, lion statue, and the lotus flower that decorate the Buddha statue are all very large in size.

Hot bowls of seolleongtang, which is ox bone soup, have been served up daily at Seoul Kkakdugi in Nampo-dong (neighborhood) for over 70 years.
Seolleongtang is popular at Seoul Kkakdugi
Nampo-dong (neighborhood) is packed with many history-laden restaurants that maintain a steady clientele today. Seoul Kkakdugi, which today has many franchise locations, started here more than 70 years ago. It's easy to see why many people still venture far for the original.
The seolleongtang (ox bone soup), gomtang (beef bone soup) and yangjitang (beef brisket soup) are delightful. While the broth for each soup is the same, the cuts of beef vary. Salt or pepper can be added or even kkakdugi (cubed radish kimchi) sauce. Some customers visit just to taste our kkakdugi (it is in the restaurant's name, after all). Its crunch and light sweetness pair well with milky, hearty seolleongtang.

Jeondeungsa Temple was originally called Jinjongsa during the Goryeo Dynasty. It functioned as a sanctuary enshrining family ancestors. Jeondeungsa Temple is located in Samrangseong Fortress, which is said to have been built by the three sons of Dangun, the founder of Korea.
Jeondeungsa Temple contains significant architectural works, including the main building Daeungbojeon. Decorated with delicate carvings, it is a superlative example of the architecture of the mid-Joseon Dynasty. The canopy situated above the Buddha statue inside Daeungbojeon building showcases masterful workmanship. On the walls and columns of Daeungbojeon, visitors can see names of soldiers written on the walls. These soldiers fought against the French Navy and wrote their names in Jeondeungsa to pray to Buddha for good luck in war.
There are ten other structures of historical significance at the temple including Yaksajeon (Treasure No. 179), Beomjong Bell (Treasure No. 393, constructed in the 11th century).
