Dalmaji Hill Park

Dalmaji Hill Park is a famous and beautiful spot nestling on a hill that overlooks the blue sea of Busan City, South Korea.

Locals dubbed Dalmaji Hill Park as the Montmartre of Busan, an allusion to the famous huge hill in France primarily known for its artistic history, the white-domed Basilica of the Sacré-Cœur on its peak, and as a nightclub district.

Dalmaji Road in this park is also famous for its panoramic and amazing views of Busan's blue sea, white beach area, camellia plants, and forest areas.

The hill park is considered one of Busan City's eight scenic sites. Locals and travelers stroll along the Dalmaji Hill's roadside to observe such grandiose sights.

That same road looks heavenly when the Spring comes, and the Cherry Blossoms that line up by the roadside show off their whitist and pinkish-calming colors and aura.

Dalmaji Hill Park is open to all visitors. It is accessible all-year-round, and no fees will be collected.

Good news for pet lovers! Pets are allowed in this park. However, please keep the simple policy and etiquettes when bringing your pet (dogs) in the area.
