Ulsan pairs its industrial history with riverside gardens and coastal scenery along the East Sea. Taehwagang National Garden brings greenery and river views into the city, while Daewangam Park and Ganjeolgot offer walks overlooking the sea. Ulsan Museum traces the area’s development from prehistoric times to the growth of modern industry. The mountain landscape around Ganwoljae in the Yeongnam Alps adds another dimension to a place shaped by both nature and urban life.

THE QUICK ANSWER

Where should I arrive, and what comes next?

KTX Ulsan Station in Ulju-gun and Taehwagang Station in Nam-gu are different rail gateways. KTX-Eum also calls at Taehwagang, so check the station name rather than relying on the train brand. Intercity and express buses use separate terminal facilities in Samsan-dong.
