Introduction
Gamcheon Culture Village is Busan's colorful, artistic hillside village, with layered colorful houses and art murals, Busan's most photogenic sight, called Busan's Santorini. Gamcheon Culture Village sits on a seaside hillside in Busan, a colorful, artistic, unique and very photogenic cultural village, called Busan's Santorini and Korea's Machu Picchu. Its most stunning feature is its layered, colorful houses built on a steep slope: small square houses painted in bright, soft colors (pink, blue, yellow, green) spread densely up the steep, undulating slope like a knocked-over palette of colorful terraces or blocks, bright, colorful, gorgeous and unique, beautiful and photogenic from across or above. Once a poor hillside shantytown (refugees after the war), it was transformed through urban renewal and art (houses painted, murals, installations and sculptures added in alleys and walls) into this colorful, artistic, vibrant cultural village. Wandering its winding, undulating alleys, you find colorful houses, creative murals, fun art installations (like the famous Little Prince statue) and viewpoints, colorful, artistic and fun. (This is a residential area; please speak softly, do not make noise or enter homes, respect residents.) A visit to Busan and its colorful Gamcheon Culture Village is a vivid sight.
