Busan

A fast but terrifying boat ride from Fukuoka brought us to Busan, South Korea's second city.
We stayed in an area called Nampo which is packed full of places to eat, both in restaurants and out on the street. As a result, we seemed to spend most of our time eating, which is no bad thing because Korean food is amazing!
We had topokki (a kind of rice cakes in really spicy sauce) , rolls of fish cake with vegetables and rice (a bit like sushi), dumplings, giant chicken kebabs, fish soup, sweet potato chips, hotteok (a sweet pancake filled with brown sugar syrup and seeds), Korean sticky fried chicken, tornado potato, and kimchi pancake. We could easily have gone on eating all night if we hadn't got full, it's all so good and so cheap.
When we finally had a break from filling our stomachs we went to another part of Busan called Haeundae where there is a fantastic beach. We also went to a modern art museum with some very strange exhibits and a photography gallery with an exhibition about socialist architecture in eastern Europe.Читать далее
