Busan Nam-gu: Daeyeon Peace Sites, Igidae and Oryukdo
Plan Nam-gu in three separate visitor blocks, not one continuous walk: (1) Daeyeon's history/peace cluster — Busan Museum (63 UN Pyeonghwa-ro), UN Memorial Cemetery (93), Peace Park (10 Sinseon-ro 447beon-gil), UN Peace Memorial Hall and the uphill National Memorial Museum of Forced Mobilization (100 Honggok-ro 320beon-gil); (2) Igidae's rocky coastal trail; and (3) Oryukdo Skywalk. Each site has its own entrance and visiting rules, and the coastal blocks require separate transport and walking time.
Representative Igidae coastal trail scenery; not evidence of current trail conditions.

Busan Nam-gu: Daeyeon Peace Sites, Igidae and Oryukdo
From Metro Line 2 Daeyeon Station Exit 3, Busan Museum, the cemetery and Peace Park can form a history-focused walk. Bus 134 offers an alternative from Busan Station to the UN cemetery/Busan Culture Center area. Peace Park is a community-event and leisure venue, while the cemetery is a solemn burial ground: do not conflate their entrances or opening hours. The forced-mobilization museum is farther uphill; allow extra travel time. Igidae/Oryukdo require buses toward Yongho-dong and checks for stairs, wind and weather-related closures.
New & interesting
On 6 October 2026, Nam-gu Cultural Foundation announced the 28th UN Peace Festival for 23–25 October at Peace Park, themed 'Open Memories, Open Future'. Five themed zones and civic activities, performances, food and linked exhibitions are planned, but daily opening times, show schedules, fees and traffic measures are still unconfirmed. Peace Park is not the UN Memorial Cemetery, which closes at 17:00 in October–April. Busan Museum is open Tue–Sun 09:00–18:00 (last entry 17:00), free, with a refreshed donated-artifacts gallery on floor 2.
