Born out of the chaos following Korea's liberation and shaped further by refugees during the Korean War, Gukje Market carries decades of Busan's modern history within its winding alleys. Wander through themed lanes like the vintage clothing alley, patbingsu alley, and cosmetics alley for a truly eclectic shopping experience. If you lose your bearings in the maze-like market, head up to the second-floor skywalk for a great overview and a memorable photo spot.
광복 직후 형성되어 한국전쟁 피난민들의 삶터로 성장한 국제시장은 부산 근현대사를 고스란히 품고 있는 전통시장이다. 구제시장 골목, 팥빙수 골목, 화장품 골목 등 개성 있는 테마 골목들이 미로처럼 이어져 있어 구경하는 재미가 남다르다. 길을 잃을 것 같다면 2층 구름다리로 올라가 시장 전체를 내려다보며 위치를 확인해보자.
