Busan Cinema Center

Busan is a city with around 3.4 million people and the beach in Haeundae is South Korea’s “Fort Lauderdale”. At the moment it is some degrees too hot (around 35 degrees celsius) and has a busy night life. Haeundae beach is a white sandy one and is 2 km long and is well suited for relaxing and sunbathing. If you want to take a swim the sea is pleasantly warm. The city has a beautiful skyline and most buildings are quite tall making space for the city’s inhabitants. Other sites we’ve visited are Sea Life Busan Aquarium, Busan Lotte Shopping Mall, Busan Cinema Center and Beomeosa temple. All four sites were great fun.

At the arrival in Busan, we hurried from the Busan International Port to the Busan Metro, only to get on the wrong direction from Haeundae (where we had booked our stay). This resulted in another accident where Emeric forgot his backpack on the metro. Fortunately we discovered that one bag was missing when we got to Haeundae metro and ran to the customer service office and within 1 1/2 hour we had got the backpack with a computer and headset in it! Beat that! The only thing that he had to do was to sign out his backpack.
