My first time in Busan!

After an early flight from Gimpo Airport, me and a friend met up with the rest of our group who arrived a few days before us. The second we landed in Busan, we immediately headed to our Airbnb, which funny enough was in the same building as the place the rest of our group had stayed at, just a few floors below!  With a claw machine, unlimited netflix, and plenty of board games, the nights we ordered in and played games were so much fun!

Gamcheon is absolutely stunning at all times of the day! After taking a small bus up the narrow and steep streets, we finally arrived in Gamcheon just in time. The crowds were dissolved, the clouds were setting in, and the night was approaching. We found a few good photo stops just in time before stopping at a beautiful rooftop cafe (that was famous for appearing in a popular Korean drama) and took our time relaxing and enjoying the sights at night.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Along Haeundae beach, there is a beautiful path that takes you all along the coast. Probably my favorite stop so far~ After a small picnic of ricecakes and fruit, we walked all along the boardwalk and took in the breathtaking scenery alongside the calming sounds of the sea that I had missed so much.

And finally, we were able to catch a front-row seat for the Busan Fireworks festival which was absolutely incredible! We pulled out our mat, ran to the nearest convenience store to grab some snacks before the show, and sat along the water facing one of many sites to watch the beautiful fireworks.
