it's more like a shopping junction, if you are not there for the movies. huge range of shops with wide sidewalks that will allow you to roam around freely More

This is a really vibey area of Busan. Get delicious street food. The atmosphere is really great. I recommend going in the evening as that is when the atmosphere is the best. Jagalchi market is also really close which is great for seafood. More

When it is not the film festival period, this is just another shopping street, choke full of shops selling anything and everything. The bustle at night was quite interesting, the stalls that sprouted on the streets adding to the atmosphere. Getting your fortune told seems to be a popular past time, evidenced by a whole row of tarot reading tents. More

Came here during the off season, but I still think the building is worth dropping by and taking pictures of. Would love to come here during the actual festival, but it just didn't work out this time. In addition to the outdoor theater, there are some indoor ones playing a few movies. Worth checking out. More

We strolled up the main street entrance coming from the fish market. Many food stalls set up and interesting to see how some of the street food was prepared. But you really come here to shop. There are rows and rows of shops. This is a little haven that seems to go on forever. After a while you can lose... More

This place is bursting with people, shops, food and more food. You will never grow hungry here as there are dozens of street food vendors and plenty of restaurants to choose from (i.e Korean, Chinese, Japanese, Western). Had a blast shopping followed by some 'hot' Korean meal followed by yummy Cold Stone ice-cream. We were there over the weekend and... More

PIFF Square is full of movie memorabilia, shopping, and a ton of street food (there are lots of restaurants, too). That's why it attracts a lot of people, which gives it an active, vibrant vibe. It's just across the street from Jagalchi Market and the Busan City Tour bus stops here. Use the bus to get around all day (about... More
