An exciting culinary journey begins in Busan's old downtown.
The 10th Busan Old Town Revitalization Festival

Gourmet on the road, restaurants in Busan recommended by taxi drivers
A festival to explore Busan's hidden food gems is being held. This event will feature experienced taxi drivers recommending their favorite spots, providing their own special guides. During the festival, a 'Taksulin Guidebook' will be distributed, containing information about restaurants selected through a survey of 250 taxi drivers and desserts and cafes recommended by citizens.
This guidebook does not merely list restaurants; it includes interviews with taxi drivers, useful driving tips, and information about the specially developed 'Taksulin Limited Menu'. Additionally, an English-translated version is available for foreign tourists, allowing diverse visitors to utilize it. We hope you experience the true flavors of Busan through this festival.
This year, not only taxi driver recommendations but also active input from citizens will enrich the culinary information provided. Since its first launch last year, food travel content has gained immense popularity, receiving attention from various media and YouTube.
