Busan, located in the southern seashore of the Korean peninsula, is a fish-industry city and the largest harbor in the country. In fact, it is one of the world's largest three harbors. A world-class, tourist city, Busan is the second largest city in Korea and has a population of 4 million people. Busan is also a resort city frequented by both Koreans and foreign tourists. Although the four seasons are clearly marked, it manifests a mild temperature all year long.  Visitors can enjoy the rich natural environment, which comprise cool mountain views, the salty, fresh air of the sea, soothing rivers and fresh spring waters.

In Busan, cultural festivals are celebrated all throughout the year, appealing to the passions of all its visitors. Among the premiere attractions include the Busan Ocean Festival-where pristine sands, the summer sun, and the salty breeze become one with the youth; the Busan Jagalchi Festival-the largest fishery market in Korea, where seafood can be had aplenty; and the Busan international film festival, where world-class movies can be see in one place. 

Visit Busan and witness other diverse events that can invoke the vitality of life: swimming contests for white polar bears in the winter, the sunrise festival, and so much more.
