Gwangalli Beach is one of the more popular beaches in Busan, with its signature feature being the colourful bridge by the horizon. We took the internet's advice and visited the beach at night and we were completely mesmerized by the sight of the place.

Read moreThis beach is one of the popular beaches in busan. It's good to go here in the evening around 6 and stay there for 2 to 3 hours.

Ajummas sell fire works on the beach which are like 2000 wons and lot of people light these at the end of the beach. It's great to watch the fire crackers being lit by so many people. Taking a walk along the beach we can enjoy all these beautiful things...
