You can enjoy free drinks and snacks, and the staff will also set off fireworks, so you can have a great time. K-POP music is playing, which is a must-see for K-POP fans. The night view is also very beautiful, so I definitely recommend going there if you go to Busan.

i enjoyed this place as an adult. i didnt expect that this place is a bit big since it’s unnoticeable from the road level but it has few basement floors. One of the indoor tourist attractions that you can go to especially if there’s a bad weather. It very near the haeundae station and just a stone throw to the beach. Kids will surely love this place.

Gyeongju is beautiful. Xiaozhou’s tour guide and Giselle’s company made the entire Gyeongju trip more perfect. I highly recommend that everyone can choose this itinerary without fear of language barriers. There are tour guides in both Chinese and English on site. I highly recommend it. It’s a fulfilling day👍

It's a good place to go if your flight arrives in Busan too early. You have four hours to use it. You can find a seat on the 1.2th floor to rest for a while after taking a shower.
