    It has a similar population size to Madrid. Both in administrative districts and metro areas.

    Is there any app to view Korean skylines in 3d? Like Google or Apple maps with flyover or similar?

    You can use Google Maps in a 3D mode on browser. Also, Google Earth.

    Make sure to try it at night. Truly a city of stars. The way the city crawls up the hills gives the illusion of being deep in a galaxy.

    I appreciate that, a lot! It’s crazy you said this because I was exclusively planning to do that ride during the daytime lol. So that’s a wonderful pro tip you’ve given me. Looks like I’ll schedule it to straddle sunset in this case!

    It's beautiful. Especially crossing over multiple bridges and seeing the landscape changing is magical.

    Not much in the way of skyscrapers but they do have the world largest department store there. I thought the beach was pretty nice too.

    The smell of sewage and rotting garbage was pretty extreme. Apparently they are wayyyyy outdated in their sewer maintenance and throughout and lots of waste goes right into the ocean. Whennit rains the smell is awful too. Reminds me of my hometown!

    I was there last month , not easy to use public transportation and very dispersed. I prefer Seoul, at least as a tourist.

    Let’s just say I know very little, if anything at all, about civil engineering, municipal codes in Busan, S. Korean environmental policy, land use and zoning laws in that region and have never been there before and only could name Seoul as a major city, but would take a minute to locate it on a map….

    Is there a reason those hills are not visibly developed?
