Anju


Anju is a term for a Korean food consumed with alcohol basically like tapas.


Anju can be a variety of foods in Korea, including both main dishes and side dishes.

Consuming food with alcohol is a widespread practice in Korea,
especially when the alcoholic beverage soju is involved.




Since the introduction of beer and Western foods into Korea bars and 
pubs have enjoyed a new found popularity and many types of western 
food is eaten as anju.

Some foods are considered to be best complimented by certain types of 
alcohol for example : 

Samgyeopsal barbecued pork belly is considered to go
best with Soju.




Fried chicken or Korean seasoned chicken goes better with Beer.




and Pan-jun and Mokkoli (or dongdongju) is a popular combination for rainy days.



.I really love eating anju and drinking with my friends when I'm in Korea!

If your new to anju then I recommend Korean Chicken and Beer!

Its my favourite! Korean fried chicken is the best and has many varieties.




Busan Tower 부산타워 (Yongdusan Park)



Busan Tower in Yongdusan Park is a very famous tourist attraction in Busan. 
At the top of Busan Tower there is an observatory where the entire city of Busan can be seen.
I would advise you to go at night where the whole city is brightly lit giving you some amazing views.

On the first floor of the tower there is a souvenir shop where you can find handcrafts to take home with gifts such as keys, chains, wallets, dolls,  pearl fans and alot more. The shop is very interesting and its definitely worth a look you can see all the traditional hand crafts on display.

You can also find several rest places in the tower as well as a musical instrument museum and a cultural exhibit hall.
