오늘 흰여울문화마을에 갔어요. 흰여울문화마을은 한국 부산의 영도에 있어요. 이곳에는 다양한 카페와 체험장, 기념품 가게가 있고, 바다 바로 옆에 있어서 멋진 풍경을 볼 수도 있어요.
흰여울문화마을은 한국 전쟁 시기에 피난민들이 내려와 정착한 해안 마을이에요. 바다를 따라 좁은 영역에 만든 마을이 세월이 지나며 독특한 감성을 지닌 관광지로 탈바꿈했어요. 지금은 예술가들이 함께 들어와서 벽화나 작품을 만들면서, 예쁜 문화마을로 바뀌었어요. 그래서 걷다 보면 곳곳에서 작은 갤러리 같은 분위기를 느낄 수 있어요. 비슷한 곳으로 감천문화마을이 있는데, 감천문화마을은 산을 따라 지은 피난민의 마을이라는 차이가 있어요.
멋진 바다를 보며 길을 걸어요. 유명한 관광지여서 우리 말고도 외국인이 아주 많았어요. 친구들과 여기 올 때는 서로 떨어지지 않게 조심해야 하겠더라고요.
중간중간 옛 가옥을 개조해 만든 작은 카페들이 있어요. 관광지여서 값은 조금 나가지만 맛있는 음료와 음식을 바다를 보면서 먹을 수 있으니 한 번쯤 들러 보는 것도 나쁘지 않겠어요.
인생네컷 같은 포토시그니처샵도 있어요. 여기서 친구들과 함께 소품을 장착하고 멋진 사진을 남길 수도 있습니다.
아쉽게도 피아노 계단을 통해 갈 수 있는 해안 산책로는 공사 중이어서 접근할 수 없었어요. 여기는 다음에 공사가 완료되면 다시 와 보면 좋을 것 같아요.
중간에 비도 오고 날씨가 조금 아쉬웠지만 그래도 부산의 개성인 바다를 품은 마을을 둘러볼 수 있어서 좋은 시간이었어요.
========== English Translation ==========
Today, we visited Huinnyeoul Culture Village. It is located in Yeongdo, a district of Busan. The village has a variety of cafés, activity spaces, and souvenir shops. Since it is located right next to the sea, visitors can also enjoy beautiful coastal scenery.
Huinnyeoul Culture Village is a seaside village where refugees settled during the Korean War. Over time, the village, which was built along a narrow stretch of coastline, transformed into a tourist destination with a unique atmosphere. Today, artists have moved into the area and created murals and artworks, turning it into a charming cultural village. As you walk through the village, you can often feel as if you are exploring a series of small art galleries. A similar place is Gamcheon Culture Village, but the difference is that Gamcheon was built along a mountainside rather than a coastline.
We walked along the paths while enjoying the beautiful ocean view. Since it is a famous tourist destination, there were many foreign visitors besides us. We realized that when visiting with friends, it is important to stay together and be careful not to get separated.
Along the way, there are small cafés that were created by renovating old houses. Because it is a tourist area, the prices are a little high, but being able to enjoy delicious food and drinks while looking out at the sea makes stopping by one of them worthwhile.
There is also a photo booth shop similar to Photo Signature. There, we can put on various props and take memorable photos together.
Unfortunately, the coastal walking trail that can be reached through the Piano Stairs was under construction, so we could not access it. We think it would be nice to visit again after the construction is completed.
Although it rained at times and the weather was not ideal, we still had a great time because we were able to see a village that embraces the sea, one of Busan’s most distinctive features.
