Nicknamed the "Machu Picchu of Busan," Busan Gamcheon Culture Village represents a residential environment decorated with elaborate murals and sculptures made by young local crafters. The vibrant Lego-shaped neighborhood in the foothills of a coastal mountain offers visitors many interesting activities. Visit the workshops to see how the local community creates and exhibits works of art, take pottery classes, flower arranging lessons, or join a scavenger hunt, for which you just have to buy a map and wear comfortable shoes. After you finish searching for treasures, head down to the cafes and restaurants to enjoy delicious dishes and immerse yourself in the calm ambience.

A must visit here. You can purchase the map of the village where you collect stamps of all the sites you're supposed to see. Makes it a bit more interactive. However, there aren't exactly clear signs.... more

This village was built during the Korean war by the refugees from the northern part of the country. It is colorful and lots to see. Many photo zones can be gound.

Amazing day! Just know up front, there’s lots of snack opportunities…would have like a couple more sit down eat places. But, understanding what the village is, no problem. Very unique heritage, and super clever way to show off the culture. Loved the stamp idea and the excellent t map to get us through the villiage. Be prepared to walk up and down the hills. Go with a curious mindset and you will have a great adventure!!

Super amazing, colourful place. You can find iced beer and grilled food here. Loved the air, small houses, clean and beautiful alleys and long stairs. There was this stamp game going on, the day I visited. Didn't participate in it, but it was quite fun looking at them running around for clues while I was sitting under a shade, drinking and eating with my friends and some local old folks. Highly recommended to all!
