4th floor exhibition hall, meet the time of Busan's refugee period When you enter the 4th floor of the 40 Steps Cultural Center, you will naturally recall the time when Busan was a city of refugees. Thanks to the exhibitions that seem to have transferred real life, it is a space where you can feel the atmosphere of that time. An exhibition where traces of life are alive In one room of the model room, old household items are placed, and simple items such as briquettes, pots, half-closed doors, and old clothes are neatly displayed. Just by looking at the exhibits one by one, you can feel the reality of the Busan citizens who survived the war and refuge. The explanation panels and photos are easy to read, so you can easily understand the situation at that time. A short but impressive experience The exhibition hall is not that large, but the message conveyed by each prop is heavy. It takes about 10 minutes if you look around slowly, but it leaves a deep resonance that will remain in your emotional memory for a long time. Visiting tips and impressions If you do not stay on the 4th floor but also see the exhibits on other floors, you can see Busan's modern and contemporary history in a more three-dimensional way. It is a size that is easy to visit with children, and listening to the explanations of the guides will deepen your understanding of the exhibition. The 4th floor of the Busan 40 Steps Cultural Center is a space that provides a valuable experience when you want to seriously face Busan's painful history in a short period of time. #July travel support fund #Nampo-dong travel #travel plan #domestic travel #indoor date #Busan travel

■ I liked this!   - Located in an alley with a modern and contemporary sensibility, the atmosphere itself is an artistic space  - Special exhibitions decorated by artists and themes change every season, providing new things to see  - Observe experimental and fresh works by local artists and young artists up close  - Small exhibition space, so you can focus on each work along the viewing route  - You can talk to the artists directly or hear explanations while viewing, so the creative intent is clearly conveyed  - Some exhibitions allow free photography, and you can purchase on-site sketches or goods from participating artists ■ Exhibition Hall Atmosphere  The building itself has an old modern style, and the use of space stands out. The interior of the exhibition hall is neatly organized, and each exhibit has a good explanation, so there was no difficulty viewing. It was good to fully appreciate each piece on a quiet weekday afternoon, as there weren't many visitors. ■ Location & Directions  It's a 5-10 minute walk from Jungang Station on Busan Subway Line 1. You can find it easily by referring to the signs along Donggwang-gil or the alley. Since it is located in the heart of the city, it is convenient to plan a sightseeing course in conjunction with Yongdusan Park, the 40-step theme street, etc. ■ Visiting tips  - The exhibition theme changes depending on the season or time, so check the official SNS or website in advance  - It is recommended to make reservations in advance for artist talks or experience programs  - Additional events such as evening gallery talks or small performances are often held  - There are many cafes and restaurants nearby within walking distance, so you can relax after viewing ■ Disappointing points  - The exhibition hall is not large, so it may not be suitable for group viewing  - Parking space is limited, so it is much more convenient to use public transportation  - There may be a large crowd during popular exhibition periods #July travel support fund #Travel plan #Domestic travel #Busan travel #Exhibition

#BusanTravel #Jungang-dongRestaurant #40Stairs When you need a comfortable meal during your trip to Busan, I recommend ‘Yangbaechu Restaurant’ in Jungang-dong. In the middle of a trip with a lot of spicy and salty food, I was really happy to have such a soft and healthy meal. I was able to walk more lightly after eating because my stomach was comfortable. The cabbage rolls are full of warm sincerity, and when you eat them with soybean paste stew, your heart will feel full. The side dishes are neat and clean, so I am 100% satisfied! The location is Jungang-dong, Jung-gu, Busan, near the Jungang subway station, so it was perfect to stop by during the schedule. I definitely recommend it on days when you want to eat slowly in a quiet atmosphere.

When the Korean War broke out in 1950, displaced people gathered here to seek refuge and keep each other warm. Many simple wooden houses were built at that time to provide refugees with a place to shelter from the wind and rain. Supplies were transported from nearby docks and sold or distributed here, forming a market. Family members who were separated during the evacuation also reunited here. The Forty-Step Theme Street and Cultural Center, which embodies the background of the Korean War, record the suffering of seventy years ago. The fifth floor of the cultural center is a centralized exhibition hall. Education cannot wait during war, and the puppets reconstruct the educational scenes of that time, the items and diaries left over from those years, depicting the people who lived seriously under the war and how they swallowed their suffering and tears. It is recommended to visit the cultural center first and then visit the theme street for a better experience. In fact, there were more than 100,000 refugees living in Dongguang-dong, Bosu-dong, and the back mountain of Yeongju-dong. In 2004, the government condensed this period of history into a cultural theme street and a cultural center, hoping that the mark of history can be preserved and allow Busan to move forward. 📍Address: 부산광역시 중구 동광동5가 동광길 47 🚗Exit 11 of Central Subway Station, walk for three minutes #MarchGoodPlaces2025

#JanuaryTravelSupportEvent I was walking down the 40-step Culture Street when I saw a mural of my favorite character, SpongeBob, so I took a picture of it!

#January travel support event I live in Busan, but I'm introducing the 40-step street that I visited for the first time this time. This place is connected from Jungang Station to Nampo Station. I thought it was just a set of stairs, but it was a street filled with the scent of the Korean War! Maybe that's why there are so many statues here and there. And there are many cafes nearby, so it's a great tourist destination to look around and go to emotional cafes.
