Central Busan: Seaside Temple, Oceanview Dining & Gallery Hopping
Start your day early to fit in all of the best sights (sans-crowds) before lunch time. After an early, earthy breakfast of abalone porridge, continue with the theme of humble pleasures and pay your respects while taking in the view at Busan’s breathtaking seaside Buddhist temple. The rest of the day will be spent enjoying the city’s many outdoor wonders while walking along pine tree-shrouded trails, gallery hopping by the beach, and enjoying seafood dishes with a cold bottle of soju by the nighttime sea.
