Budget Travel Korea | Busan | Gamcheon Culture Village

Image
This is another must-see spot in Busan especially for Running Man and K-drama fans =D We came here around noon after checking in at a motel in Busan China Town; we actually flew in from Jeju that morning.  As we hopped off the bus, we saw this view and I immediately thought of Rio de Janeiro;  not that I've been there before though but these roof tops look similar to the houses in Rio as seen in movies and photos. A cousin of mine thought of the same thing too when he saw this photo. The main attraction here is basically a unique Korean neighborhood built on a hilly area that faces the harbor in downtown Busan. You could experience waking in maze-like narrow alleys of an urban village just like those featured in their dramas.    This staircase is known as the 'Stairs to See the Stars' because people used to get dizzy  climbing it while carrying heavy loads  until they thought they saw stars ; ...

Budget Travel Korea | Busan | Haeundae Beach

Image
! Running Man Site Alert =D It was our last day in Korea on a Sunday and our flight home to Malaysia was at 5pm from Gimhae airport; so we decided to hit Haeundae beach in the morning before we close our Korean adventure this time around. It's sunny alright, but that water was ice cold! I love this; strictly NO smoking! Located right at the main access to the beach This was the first time I've ever been to a really wide and long stretch of beach ... I mean the size is really huge (well, at least for me). All the beaches that I've ever been to are all narrow in width but I think in Haeundae you could easily have 10 futsal courts or more and hold an international tournament there hehe. When we arrived at the beach around 10-ish in the morning, there weren't many weekend crowd yet but by mid day people started thronging this place as it also happened to be a public holiday in Korea then. On the other side of the street is the beach. Those bui...
