South Korea, Busan, Dong-gu, Yeongcho-gil, 191
We walked the stairs as the monorail seems to have been decommissioned. The walk wasn't as bad as I expected but it was quite steep so can be a little nerve wrecking. There are a couple of viewing platforms on the way to the top which have great views of the city.
I walked up these stairs twice because the view from up here is beautiful. You can see all of Busan from up here. Right at the top, you find a viewing platform and a nice cafe with fantastic views and good coffee. It is a lot of stairs, and it takes a little effort to climb up. There are a couple of viewing platforms on the way. There seems to be a tram going up, but both times I went to was not in business.
One of the most beautiful outposts to get a view over busan. There are several small historical details along the way. There used to be a small ride you could take to the top, but it is not operating anymore. It seems the entire place is undergoing refurbishing touches. For now, it has unfortunately a little bit of a construction site feel to it. However, as mentioned, one of the best view spots of the city. The stairs are steep, but it will be worth it to climb to the top. This is definitely a spot in Busan you should experience. It can be a little bit tricky to find the road where it starts but, just follow goolge maps and you'll find it with ease.
Nothing special it’s just a matter of you do what you gonna do to walk 168steps up and another 168down, but the view of Busan on the way up is another level
168 was not that tiring as we were served by resting area and city view from above in middle of the way. This is also filming location of SALTY TOUR 짠내투어 korean variety show
