Descriptions

Beom-eo Temple by Jeong Somi
This temple is famous in Korea. I went to this temple with my family in summer. This temple is the best place to follow a trail. I recommend it to someone who wants to spend a lot of time with someone you care about. This temple has a long history and is located on Geumjeong Mountain . In autumn, it’s good to admire the scenery of fall foliage. If you have some time to enjoy Namsan, go to the Beom-eo temple !

명륜진사갈비 by Shin Yurim
Here is the best Galbi (spare rib) restaurant in Namsan! It costs 13,500 per person and it’s all-you-can-eat. The side dishes here are quite good quality considering they’re unlimited. There are fresh vegetables, pickled garlic leaf, sweet corn, geotjeori, and various carbonated drinks. Compared with other all-you-can-eat meat restaurants, this place is really awesome! The common prejudice about this kind of restaurant is the quality of meat is not good, but the condition of the spareribs is really fresh and taste is also good. I really recommend this restaurant!

Hands coffee (near the Namsan station) by Jeong SomiHands coffee is a famous coffee shop all over the world. This cafe is located in Namsan also. It’s near the Namsan station, exit number 7. This franchised cafe was started in 2006 and at first, this cafe was only 86 square meters. The founders are coffee masters and they pursue the best quality of coffee and handmade desserts. It has spread into China and Netherlands. Hands coffee means that they provide true heart of hand. I went to this cafe often especially during exam period to study because this cafe’s atmosphere is very cozy and has lots of separated tables.


Baskin Robbins by Kim Soomin
Baskin Robbins is the world’s largest specialty ice cream store chain that was established in 1945 by Burt Baskin and Irv Robbins in Glendale, California. It has more than 7,800 shop locations around world, with more than 2,500 in U.S. The company has the slogan of ‘31 Flavours’ which is incorporated into their logo as well. The slogan signified their variety in flavors that would let a person eat each flavor within 31 days of the month. Baskin Robbins in Namsan, Busan is located right in front of Namsan station exit #7.
Store hours: 10:00 to 23:00. Monday to Sunday. No holiday.


Lotte Super by Kim Soomin
Lotte Super is Korea’s No.1 supermarket corporation. Its mission is to provide every kind of community with easy and local access to a supermarket. It continually strives to satisfy customers with a diverse range of product and services. It contributes to a better quality of life through fresh and dependable products. Lotte Super in Namsan is located between Namsan station exit #3 and #7.
Store hours: 10:00 to 23:00. Monday to Sunday. Closed on every 2nd and 4th Saturday.


Banana Pub by Lee Jae Kyung
Banana Pub is located near Exit 7 of Nansan station and opens at 6pm. We can eat various foods cheaply with a more abundant quantity than other pubs. Banana pub’s main menu item is steak and french fries and boiled fish paste soup.
It has various alcohol drinks on the menu. Also, the most biggest advantage of Banana pub is that it has a place to play darts and watch a big screen TV, so we can watch sport games like the World Cup on a big screen. If you want to watch World Cup, I recommend you to reserve the table.


Daiso by Lee Jae Kyung
Daiso is located near Exit 1 of Nansan station and is open from 10am to 10pm everyday. Daiso launched the first lifestyle brand with flat price ‘Asco ibn Praza’ and it sells 30.000 kinds of daily necessities. Daiso is a very popular and convenient place and it also has an online shop. It is difficult to find something that Daiso doesn’t have. Daiso has various kinds of products such as stationery, kitchen utensils, cleaning equipment, snack, beauty products and automobile products. Also, the reason that many customers use it is that prices are so low and has many creative products and special products like Halloween and Christmas items. The prices of the products are mostly between 1000 won and 5000 won and most products cost 1000 won. I think Daiso is one of the most cost-effective places.


Nolboo Budaejjigae And Bossam by Kim Subin
Nolbu is one of the famous restaurants for its Budae Jjigae chain store in Korea. This food contains many kinds of ham such as Frank, Salami, Bruni, Smoked ham, Tulip and Spam, also you can eat pork cutlet or beef loin in a Budaejjigae depending according to your preference. Actually, Budaejjigae means 'military stew'. It is a Korean dish that is thick like a western stew. Right after the Korean War, there was not enough food in Seoul, so some people used to add a food such as ham and sausage. At that time, it was called ‘Johnsontang’ after the name of U.S. President Lyndon B. Johnson. It is easy to make and the taste is delicious. That’s why a lot of people like this food.
Bossam boiled pork without smelling, is placed under heavy stones to take out the remaining fat and eat it wrapped in lettuce and cabbage with some garlic, chili, kimchi. It is also tasty.
If you want to eat Korean traditional food, I recommend to you Nolboo restaurant.


Ediya Coffee by Kim Subin
Ediya coffee is a famous and popular Korean coffee chain store. It was the second largest number of stores in Korea following Cafe Bene, but recently it has risen to the top of the list, because most of beverages are much cheaper than other coffee shops. For this reason, it is a popular brand with students and workers. Ediya means 'the Emperor of the Continent' in Ethiopia. Among many Ediya menu items, I think ‘Grapefruit Nable Orange’ is the best. It is an ice blended tea made with grapefruit, oranges, rosehip, apples, and pineapple. If you like grapefruit, you will definitely fall in love with it.
