Korea, Busan : night view and 관간 bridge

En français
I then continued to walk to 관간 (Gwangan) bridge also called Diamond bridge and took some picture of the night view in 해운대 (Haeundae) along the water. The night was pretty fresh and I stopped in a restaurant to have a very huge kimchi soup which was delicious.

Korea, Busan : 독백섬

En français

On the west side of the beach, there is a park called 독백섬 (Dongbaek) island. 독백 used to be an island but the sand and earth and dusk coming from chuncheon stream filled the gap between the island and the land.

This island presents at the summit a statue of Scholar Choi Chi-won and a monument to his memory. There is also a statue of a mermaid near the seashore. The legend says that princess 황옥 (Hwanggok) from 나란다 (Naranda) was married to king 은혜 (Eunhye) of 무궁 (Mugung) and she missed her country so much that she came to the shore to cry over it on the full moon nights as the full moon light reflected her country in the topaz ball is was carrying with her.

Korea, Busan : 해운대 beach

En français
The guest house I was staying at in 부산 was just in front of 해운대 beach. So I went there after letting my backpack. I walk first East along the beach and met with some fishes in the restaurant aquarium at the end of the beach, then I went all the way back to the West part of the beach. It was a nice walk. A lot of people where sitting there, playing frisbee or running in the water.

Korea : On the way to Busan

En français
I took the ferry back to Mokpo to spend the night at the same hotel, the beach in front of the hotel was very beautiful. The next morning I took the bus for 부산 (Buｓan). This was maybe the like miss planing in this trip I should have gone directly from 제주 (Jeju) island to 부산 to save time, but the scenery between Mokpo and Busan was really beautiful.
