International travel information provider Lonely Planet has listed Busan as the top must-visit
travel destination in Asia. Previously referred to as “Korea’s Second City,” Busan has stepped out
of Seoul’s shadow in what CNN states is a giant leap forward. Accessible via a two and a half-hour
KTX ride from Seoul, Busan has all one could ask for in a summer destination: fresh seafood and
picturesque beaches.

Lonely Planet lauded Busan as “a destination between the sea and the mountains, where the
landscape, culture, and food all blend perfectly,” and further mentioned the activity options
available to travelers, such as hiking to Buddhist temples, relaxing in hot springs, and finding the
freshest catch at the largest seafood market in Korea. Busan is also hosting a variety of events in
celebration of being designated the East Asia Culture City for 2018.
