Donghae Line tour

The Donghae Line is a railway line connecting Bujeon Station in Busanjin-gu to Ilgwang Station in Gijang-gun. Prior to the Donghae Line, people had significant difficulty traveling by public transportation from downtown Busan to Ilgwang. However, the Donghae Line allows people to access Gijang and Ilgwang within about 30 min, thus giving more options to enjoy Busan attractions. Let’s find Busan attractions along the Donghae Line. Recommended Route Bujeon Market (Bujeon Station) - Oncheoncheon Café Street (Allak Station) - Songjeong Beach (Sonjeong Station) - Jukseong Catholic Church (Gijang Station) - Ilgwang Beach (Ilgwang Station) Bujeon Market (Bujeon Station) Let’s first meet at the Bujeon Market at Bujeon Station, the starting point of the Donghae Line. A combination of eight markets and Bujeon Market is also called Bujeon Market Town. This cluster is so large that it feels like a small town. Bujeon Market lacks nothing. Above all, the best part of the traditional market lies in its variety of food. It serves numerous dishes, including all kinds of fruits, roasted chestnuts, roasted sweet potatoes, fish cake, carp bread, spicy rice cakes, blood sausage, fritters, etc. Why not fill your stomach at Bujeon Market before taking the Donghae Line tour in earnest? Oncheoncheon Café Street (Allak Station) Walking about 10 min from Allak Station, you’ll see the Oncheoncheon Stream, a rest area for Busan citizens. Take a walk down Oncheoncheon Café Street along the Oncheoncheon stream. This café street is lined with different cafés and shops mainly serving brunch items. After strolling along the well-maintained trail on the streamside, why not refresh yourself with brunch and a cup of coffee? Songjeong Beach (Songjeong Station) The next stop is Songjeong Station via Centum City from Allak Station. Walking 20 min from Songjeong Station, you’ll reach Songjeong Beach. Songjeong Beach is not that crowded except for the Membership Training (MT) season for university students, allowing you to feel the charm of the serene sea. It’s also a good idea to have toast sold by one of the small vans on the beachfront or relax in a café with a nice view. Jukdo Park located at the edge of the beach has a short walking trail through the pine forest. You can enjoy an unobstructed sea view here from the Songiljeong Pavilion. Songjeong Beach is an excellent venue for those who want to enjoy small pleasures on a secluded beach. Jukseong Catholic Church (Gijang Station) In 20 min by bus from Gijang Station, you’ll see a unique, picturesque building in a small seaside town. Sitting at the end of a rock facing the sea, Jukseong Catholic Church was built as a filming location for dramas. However, its exotic beauty blending in with the beautiful coastal waters of Gijang attracts many people who want to make unforgettable memories. Every corner of the church in harmony with the dark blue sea serves as a photo zone. Ilgwang Station (Ilgwang Beach) Walking 10 min from Ilgwang Station, the last stop of the Donghae Line, you’ll reach Ilgwang Beach. The crescent-shaped beach seems to embrace the sea warmly. With its shallow water level, it’s a perfect place to go on a waterside excursion with your family. You can experience various marine sports when the beach is open and also enjoy seaside camping at the campsite.
