About
Busan is now a large marine tourism capital; however, it used to be nothing but a small fishing village. In Busan Fishing Village Folk Museum, visitors can catch a glimpse of the ancestors’ lives who blossomed the fishing village’s culture by using the Nakdonggang River and the sea. The museum vividly reproduced the stories of the people by the Nakdonggang River over thousands of years and the folk culture that melted into their lives.
Visit and experience the culture of Busan’s fishing village, where the river flows to the sea.
