One Nice Afternoon @ Pukyong National University



       Pukyong National University (PKNU/부경대학교) is one of national universities in Busan, South Korea. It has two campuses in Daeyeon and Yongdang. Since there are a lot of hills in Busan, it is difficult to find a campus without a slope. But Daeyeon campus is the only one flat campus in Busan. The campus can be easily reach by subway (Kyungsung University&Pukyong National University subway station, line 2) or bus number 10, 20, 22, 24, 27, 39, 40, 41, 42, 51, 83, 83-1, 108-1, 131, 139, 155, 583, 1003.
       I went to PKNU last week at a nice afternoon with my friend to meet other friends and hang around the campus. We bought lunch box for our late lunch and enjoyed it at the park inside the campus. It very easy to find a lot of food variety near PKNU because there is a shopping area in front of the campus. After that afternoon, I found it is a nice idea to hang around just in university area. There are a lot of interesting things to see and enjoy with your friends.




       There is a wooden sidewalk from subway station to PKNU. The street seller and green tall trees make the scenery looks very nice.





       There is a small space/stage in the sidewalk where people specially PKNU student can do performance. When I went there I saw some of students were having a performance and I took a video when they sang 'I don't care' by 2NE1, one of famous girl group in South Korea.

There is a beautiful park with a pond and gazebo in front of the main library inside the campus. A perfect place to enjoy spring breezy wind.


PKNU is famous of its fisheries and maritime science, therefore you can find some ship statues inside the campus.


The campus is very close to Gwangan-bridge and the beach. If you go to the campus, take some time to see the beautiful night scene of Gwanganli. If you see this picture below, its just like The Bund in Shanghai right?
