Busan's Gwangandaegyo Bridge: Watching the sea while letting your thoughts dry in the sun.

This time during the day in Busan, I planned a leisurely itinerary. When I arrived at Gwangalli Beach, the weather was just perfect. The sun was warm, but the breeze wasn’t sticky. Sitting on the beach and gazing at Gwangandaegyo Bridge, I felt that this city is gentle even during the day—it just doesn’t speak.

📍 Gwangandaegyo Bridge (광안대교)
During the day, Gwangandaegyo Bridge isn’t as dreamy as it is at night, but it feels more authentic. Without the embellishment of lights, it’s a clean and sleek bridge stretching across the blue sea. Occasionally, cars pass over it and boats glide beneath it, creating a dynamic scenery that requires no arrangement.

🚄 Transportation
【Gwangandaegyo Bridge / Gwangalli Beach】
．Take Subway Line 2 and get off at "Gwangan Station" or "Geumnyeonsan Station," then walk about 10–15 minutes to reach the beach.
．It’s also convenient to come from Haeundae; a taxi or bus ride takes about 15 minutes.

🫀 Personal Thoughts
The weather was great, with sunlight shimmering on the sea surface and the bridge standing steadily in front of me, silent but present. At that moment, I felt that traveling doesn’t necessarily mean visiting famous spots. Sometimes, just sitting in the right place can naturally calm your heart.

Simply watching the sea, the bridge, and a slice of Busan life pass by in front of me—this kind of moment, where you do nothing, stays with you longer than any stop on the itinerary.
