You don’t need anything special — just money for food, drinks, or a café, and maybe a sun hat and sunglasses if you’re going on a sunny day
BUS
The Busan Cable Car is a place I visited with my mom during her trip to Korea, specifically to Busan. If you go during the day, you can enjoy beautiful sea views and explore several parks and observation decks. There are also cute, friendly orange cats around, and you’ll find a food court, a themed café, and a photo booth inspired by "The Little Prince." For photo lovers, there are plenty of photo zones, including a mini-park with sculptures from the book, where they even give tips on how to pose. The cable car operates at night as well, offering a chance to see the night view of Busan. Overall, it's a great place to spend half a day enjoying both daytime and nighttime views.
🔆 Busan stretches along the coastline, so getting from one place to another takes time. You can combine a visit to the cable car with a trip to Gamcheon Culture Village. 🔆 Below the cable car is Songdo Beach with a scenic walkway over the sea—make sure to take a stroll there. 🔆 To avoid queues, it’s better to buy cable car tickets online in advance. However, online tickets cannot be used on the day of purchase. 🔆 Allocate 2-3 hours for the cable car. There are parks with walking paths, several viewing platforms (one of which is paid, 1,000 ₩), a café, photo zones, photo booths, and a food court.
