Taejongdae

Taejongdae is an iconic park in Busan. It took me ~2hrs to walk finish the mountain, including visiting some of the landmarks like the observatory and lighthouse. It's a relatively easy hike - it's a sloped ground with many water fountain and benches for you to rest. Some landmarks might be more challenging such as the lighthouse as there are many stairs. Overall, it's quite safe and simple to walk around the park. The views are quite nice - you can see the ocean from several spots at the park. Sinseon rock has been closed due to rocks falling. There's also a train that can bring you to various checkpoints around the park if you don't want to walk too much. I didn't take the train so I can't comment too much about it. The observatory has a cat, and a stall that sells snacks for the kitty 🐱

Taejongdae is a stunning natural park in Busan, South Korea, known for its dramatic cliffs, ocean views, and lush forests. It offers a peaceful escape with breathtaking scenery, especially from the lighthouse and observatory. Perfect for nature lovers and photographers!

4km beautiful walking path surrounded by forest and seaview. Good running path.

A really huge park to explore the forest and see wonderful views of the ocean. We started off riding a train that brings us to different spots around the park. There's a trail going to the hills with pine trees, there's a Buddhist temple that's been inside the park for a long time, there's an observatory, lighthouses, trails by the cliff etc. We spent about 4 hours inside but you can easily spend all day here if you really want to stop on every spot. There's also places to eat and and there are gazebos and picnic areas too. There's a spot near the beach where the "haenyeo" women (divers) serve freshly caught seafood. There's also a lot of spots to take really good photos. It's a great place to bring kids or have a date.

Stunning coastal views, especially from the lighthouse and observation decks. The walking paths through lush greenery are peaceful, and the cliffs provide breathtaking scenery. The Danubi train is a great option if you prefer a more leisurely tour. A must-visit in Busan!

Entrance with ticket that allows you to take a train to the top. View point has a cafe (lvl 2) with glass panel for viewing After which you can take a short walk to go to the viewpoint by the sea. There are also few tents by the sea on the rock, which looks like dining service might be available. Beautiful and windy place, involves a fair bit of walking and climbing of stairs.

Taejongdae Resort Park is a must-visit when in Busan! The hiking trails, observation deck, and lighthouse offer breathtaking views of the sea that make any trip memorable. At the observation deck, there's a convenient restaurant and store where I enjoyed some ice cream and a refreshing drink—a nice touch to a day of exploring. There are also plenty of friendly stray cats around, which is a bonus for cat lovers. Although the temple was somewhat underwhelming, everything else more than made up for it. The climb to the lighthouse is a bit steep and narrow, especially with two-way traffic, but the panoramic view at the top is absolutely worth it. Highly recommend for anyone looking to experience the beauty of Busan's coastline!

Great place with lots to see! The train takes you around the park and there are many landmarks and points of interest along the route. Toilets are everywhere and there are also cafes and shops along the route. I enjoyed the view over the water from the observatory and the lighthouse. Tickets cost a couple of thousand won each for the train and I think the parking had a small fee also. Probably best to visit in the summer, though even when I visited in winter it was a nice experience.
