Begin your day trip in Ulsan with a visit to the Bangudae Petroglyphs, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Marvel at over 300 ancient rock carvings depicting whales, deer, tigers, turtles, and mysterious human figures. Learn about the ancient hunting rituals, beliefs, and daily life of the people who created these carvings, which predate the Colosseum, Stonehenge, and the Great Wall.
Next, head to the Onggi Pottery Village, where you can see traditional Korean pottery being made. Watch skilled artisans at work and learn about the history and techniques of this ancient craft. You’ll have the opportunity to purchase unique pottery pieces to take home as souvenirs.
Finally, visit Daewangam Park, a stunning coastal park with dramatic cliffs and breathtaking views of the East Sea. Take a leisurely walk along the park’s trails, enjoy the fresh sea breeze, and snap some photos of the beautiful scenery.
