It’s a dream to return and watch a concert or two and recreate those scenes in K-dramas we’ve all binge-watched during the pandemic. And now that travel to the country is allowed once again, all we need to do is prepare, book our flights, and enjoy what South Korea has to offer.

Even if your interest lies in architecture, you won’t go wrong in having a tour around this seaport metropolis. If you’re a big fan of majestic buildings or uniquely built structures, your jaws will drop with Busan’s exceptional edifices. The Busan International Architectural Culture Festival (BIACF) actually held tours recently to promote the city’s outstanding urban architecture—and while it’s come to an end, we suggest that you do your DIY visits yourself. After all, Busan is known for making things extra, so these spots are surely worth checking out.

If you want to experience Busan in the old days, find structures that will transport you back in time. Start at Busan Cathedral of the Anglican Church of Korea and take in the wonders of its Romanesque-style brick building, originally built in 1924.
