Dongnae Historical Park

Add to Trip

A tired Bonbons dragged her feet to explore a part of Busan that was frequently mentioned by her classmates - Dongnae. Unfortunately I’ve not visited the traditional market, but the historical park was on my to-do list.

There is something magical and haunting about an old place like this. At the North entrance, you are greeted with steep slopes and foliage, with several sub entrances to choose from.

A park preserving ancient memoirs from the Joseon period, it is no surprise that even in the serenity, one can’t help but to think how rich Korea is in history and culture.
