Yeosu Nighttime Sea: 1 Night, 2 Days
Duration: 1 night, 2 daysA sea made famous by a single song. Daytime Yeosu and nighttime Yeosu look like two different cities, making this a destination that's hard to experience in just one day. When the sun sets and the cable car and bridges light up, the city truly comes alive.
