Busan City Highlights Private Tour Itinerary:
07:30 - 08:00 - 08:30 - 09:00: Your expert tour guide and driver will pick you up from the hotel located in central Busan City and take you to Haedong Yonggungsa, a magnificent temple on the coast of Busan that stands out as one of South Korea's most unusual structures.
Founded in 1376, this temple stands out from others that are often nestled away in the highlands since it is placed straight by the sea, creating an entirely different atmosphere. The temple's name, "East Sea Dragon Palace Temple," relates to a tale in which a dragon ascended from the sea to bring divine energy to the area.
One of the temple's most striking features is the seamless blending of its design with the stunning beach setting. To reach the temple, guests must go down 108 steps, where they are greeted with a breathtaking view of the sea. Haedong Yonggungsa is especially well-known for being a great place to see the sunrise, with many visitors arriving early in the morning to witness the beautiful sight of the sun rising over the East Sea and pouring its golden light over the temple.

Visitors are in for a treat since they can handpick the freshest catch and have it prepared on-site at local restaurants, enjoying delicacies such as sashimi or grilled fish in the most authentic and appetizing way.
The market's vivid motto in Busan dialect adds to its appeal: "Oiso (come), Boiso (see), Saiso (buy)."

It has evolved over time into a dynamic cultural destination that retains its historical relevance. Visitors may walk through the little tunnels and maze-like alleys, discovering the village's unique architecture and learning about its early occupants.
