Split by a fearsome border, the Korean Peninsula offers travelers a dazzling range of experiences,
beautiful landscapes and 5,000 years of culture and history. The blue and red circle at the heart of the
South Korean flag symbolizes the divided Korean Peninsula, as well as the fluid mix of the ancient and
the modern in the country officially called the Republic of Korea. South Korea is a dream destination –
an engaging, welcoming place where the benefits of a high-tech nation are balanced alongside a
reverence for tradition and the ways of old Asia.

Asian Games and the APEC 2005 Korea. It was also one of the host cities for the 2002 FIFA World Cup
and is a center for international conventions in Korea. Our first stop is Haedong Yonggungsa Temple,
situated on the northeastern coast of Busan. Visitors have the rare opportunity to see a temple along the

Beach. We will enjoy shopping in the underground shopping malls at Seomyun Shopping District.

After breakfast, we will visit Jagalchi Fish Market, the largest fish market in South Korea. It is very popular
with tourists and locals and is one of the “must see” places in Busan. After enjoying our time at the Market,
we will have a local Buffet Seafood Grill for lunch. Then, we will visit Gukje International Market,
the largest traditional market in Busan. Gukje Market humbly began during the Korean War in 1950 as a place
for war refugees to try to eke out a living and soon grew into a large, bustling market. Nampo-dong Shopping
District draws hundreds of thousands of tourists year-round and is also one of the favorite haunts of Busan
citizens. Every year PIFF Square is one of the main stages of the Pusan International Film Festival (PIFF).
Whether you are looking for movie theatres or good restaurants, Nampo-dong has it all. Finally, we will visit
Nurimaru APEC House. The name is created by combining the Korean words nuri (“world”) and maru
(“summit”), and “APEC House,” which refers to an APEC (Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation) conference
hall. Collectively, it means “a house where the world summits gather for an APEC meeting.”

and learn about Korea’s cultural beliefs. We will then proceed to the Office of the President, the Blue
House or Cheong Wa Dae. Our last activity for the day is shopping at Itaewon. It is a unique place in
