5 In 1407, the Joseon government established Busanpo Japan House to curb the plundering of villages on the South Coast by Japanese raiders and, in 1426, opened Busanpo Port to increase trade with Japan. However, in the aftermath of the Korea-Japan Treaty of 1876, Busanpo was forced to be opened by the Japanese and became a window through which invaders advanced to mainland China and transported goods they had stolen. In the area of Jwacheon-dong, which neighbors Busanpo, there still remain the traces of Busan’s history, people and life including the Anti-Japan independence movement in the occupation era, the Korean War and the industrialization period. From the outer fortress of Busanjinseong to Jeonggongdan Altar, Ilsin Girls’ School and Busanpo Opening Cultural Center, Busanpo Gaehanggado Road that connects these historic places is a living history textbook.

There lies history unknown, and thoughts untapped. That’s why it is so beautiful to walk alone. Here are some of the roads in Busan where one can walk alone.

The Wonderful Scenery of Busan on Mountainside Roads
3,278 1 0 Would you like to experience the history of Busan and see the true beauty of Busan? Then, visit the mountainside roads!
Busan has many mountains, and land is scarce, so during the Japanese colonial period, people from all over the country went up to the mountains in search of work and formed shanty towns. Moreover, as the population of Busan, which was 280,000 at the time of liberation, grew to well over 1 million during the Korean War, refugees who fled at the time also built houses in the mountains and lived there. Mountainside roads were created to connect the mountain villages formed in this way. Over several years, the mountainside roads symbolizing Busan's folk history were reborn through the Mountainside Road Regeneration Project. Visitors can take an observatory tour to enjoy the panoramic view of Busan from the mountainside roads. Why don’t you plan a trip there right now?
