Busan Korean BBQ and Skywalk

Oryukdo Skywalk is located at the cliff at the end of the 35m coast.

If you’re traveling to Busan, you can’t skip this famous market. I’ve seen fish markets before in Asia but none as big, fascinating and intriguing as this one. If you like seafood, don’t worry! There are plenty of restaurants and street food stalls where you can enjoy fish soup, fish on stick, fried fish and pretty much any kind of fish you can think of. There is something for everyone at the Busan Fish Market. Situated near the Namp Port in Busan, the Jagalchi Fish Market is the biggest one in South Korea. Every single day, the freshest fish is delivered by a fleet of fishing boats. After its delivery, the sellers start to clean it and display it.

One-of-a-kind Wares at Gukje Market, the largest traditional market in Busan, is a place steeped in history. Gukje Market humbly began during the Korean War in 1950 as a place for war refugees to try to eke out a living, soon growing into a large, busy market. Even today, the area is bursting with the old-fashioned marketplace spirit, similar to that of Namdaemun Market in Seoul. Shops in Gukje Market sell an assortment of new and used items. Since vendors deal in both wholesale and retail sales, the average customer can purchase various items at incredibly inexpensive prices. Though still one of Korea’s most popular markets, the Gukje Market used to be the very center of commerce as both military supplies for the U.S. armies and imported goods came through the neighboring port city. The Market is located near several other tourist attractions in Busan: the Bupyeong Market, Jagalchi Market, and Nampo-dong.
