Travel to the northeastern coastline of Busan. Here, you'll find the Haedong Yonggungsa Temple. In Korea, it's unusual for temples to be located on the coast; most are located in the mountains. This spot is a favorite among the locals. They come here on New Year's Day to make a wish and watch the sunrise.
Visit Haeundae Beach -- perhaps the most famous beach in the country and enjoy lunch at a local restaurant.
You will stop for photos at the Busan Cinema Center -- the official, exclusive venue of the Busan International Film Festival. Its Big Roof is the longest cantilevered roof in the World.
Situated on the side of a 100-foot cliff, the Oryukdo Skywalk's glass viewing platform offers visitors a breathtaking view of Oryukdo Island. You'll find it at Oryukdo Seungdumal -- the southernmost point of Igidae Park's coastal walking path.
Your final stop is Busan's Gukje International Market symbolizes the commerce of this busy city. It attracts all kinds of visitors and offers good deals on imports and local food items.
