Amphibious Bus Tours to Start in Busan Next Year

Visitors will be able to tour Busan on amphibious buses starting next year, the city said on Tuesday.

It will be the second after Incheon which introduced such buses for a journey along its scenic waterway in May this year.

Busan's amphibious buses will operate on a 15 km-long course, cruising along the river for five kilometers and then visiting tourist attractions on land such as Busan Cinema Center, the official venue of the Busan International Film Festival, and the shopping paradise of Shinsegae Centum City, finally arriving at Gwangalli.

"Gwangalli sits in an area where the river meets the sea and has scenic surroundings, making it the optimal place for amphibious bus tours," a spokesman for the southeastern port city said. "We hope Busan will become one of the world's most recognized tourist attractions."
