Busan takes on different characteristics. In summer, bathing beaches in Busan hold diverse celebration events. In autumn, the saury market kicks off the Saury Culture and Tourism Festival. In winter, the habitat of migratory birds, located in the lower reaches of the Nakdonggang, again becomes the spotlight for tourists. In recent years, a Korean movie titled Friends received warm welcome from the market, and so the Yongdusan Park and the Saury Market become new sightseeing spots. Besides, Busan is famed for its Donglai Pancake and sashimi, and it is equipped with lots of renowned cultural facilities like Busan Ocean Natural History Museum, Bokcheon Museum, Busan Municipal Art Museum, and Busan Museum etc.
