Day 51 Busan: Igidae Park
One of my regrets is probably to not have sufficient time to complete the entire coastal walk at Igidae Park. I slapped on some SPF 50++ sunscreen before i left home but i still got some pretty hideous tan-lines. I also managed to soak my shirt in a newly formulated washing liquid called perspiration. Perhaps it would be better idea to visit the park in the evening when the sun is setting.
Today's Igidae park didn't see much of a crowd. At some points, i felt that the entire coast belonged to me, which made it even more beautiful. There were some people fishing and soaking up the swash along the pebbled coasts beneath the suspension bridges. It is hard not to get seduced by Igidae Park's coastal charms.
The only drawback is the extremely loooong walk to the main park. it takes about 20 minutes. (Directions are at the end of the post)
