Busan is unusual in that its mountains begin where the city ends — sometimes mid-block. Geumjeongsan, Hwangnyeongsan, Jangsan: each offers a different relationship between the mountain and the port below. We walk slowly, stop often, and pay attention to how the city looks different from elevation.
Not a fitness walk. Not a summit race. We move at a pace that allows actual looking — at the trail, the view, the texture of old stone walls, the light through pine canopy. Photography is natural here, but so is silence.
