South Korea Yeongnam Ulsan

Beaches

Ulsan, officially the Ulsan Metropolitan City, is South Korea's seventh largest metropolis. It is located in the south-east of the country, neighboring Busan to the south and facing Gyeongju to the north. Ulsan is the industrial powerhouse of South Korea, forming the heart of the Ulsan Industrial District. There are 7 tall mountains (Gajisan, Sinbulsan, Ganwolsan, cheonhwangsan, yeongchuksan, Goheonsan, Jaeyaksan) over 1,000m above sea level. Sinbulsan (MT.) Ridge, which changes to a fantastic silver grass field in autumn, is one of the best sights to see in the Yeongnam Alps. Eoksae festival is held every early October in Ganwoljae which is best known for its colony of silver grass.

Known for its industrial architecture, this large Korean city boasts several interesting museums, parks, and beaches.

We just returned from our honeymoon to Italy - we used your site to plan virtually the whole trip. I don’t have to tell you what a powerful tool you have created. We planned the perfect trip, and RoutePerfect delivered. We saved a lot using RoutePerfect, which was evident at every place we stayed and checked their rates. I was raving about your site before we left, and we will be telling everyone about it.

I found the process really easy. Simple layout and lots of options. It was helpful to see the route, allowing me to choose towns better ensuring that the journey would not take us out of our way. Four of our hotels where within easy walking distance of the city center. The hotels were very easy to find with the use of your paperwork and a sat nav. All in all it was a fantastic holiday visiting five countries in ten days. Five different cultures and five different experiences. I am happy to recommend all the hotels we stayed in.
