Why you'll love it

Busan is South Korea's second city, a port on the south coast with city beaches, seafood markets and temples by the sea. It scores 9 out of 10 for food and safety, and 8 out of 10 for beaches and families.

The best time to visit Busan is April to June and September to October, with warm, clear days. July and August are hot and humid and the beaches are at their busiest. Winter is cold but sunny.

Swim at Haeundae and Gwangalli beaches, and watch the lit-up Gwangan Bridge at night. Explore the painted hillside lanes of Gamcheon Culture Village, eat raw fish at Jagalchi Market, and visit Haedong Yonggungsa, a temple on the rocks above the sea. The fast train from Seoul takes about two and a half hours.

Busan suits food lovers, families and anyone pairing it with Seoul on a trip to Korea.
