first day in busan

so my first day in busan was very eventful. i went down to korea's biggest beach at haeundae where i walked along sand and cliffs to see some great views of the ocean, the gwangan bridge and the new APEC building for the 2007 summit (i believe). then on to korea's biggest fish market at nampo-dong where squid, shark, dried frogs and even whale meat can be bought. i wandered in and out of traditional markets and non-traditional fashion markets to find a great park in the middle of the city. on the top of the mountain was a shrine and a great view of the harbour. after sunset i headed downtown for dinner and a drink before walking home. great day. here are the pics.


there were all kinds of water creature at the market, including whale meat.
