Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Beautiful modern architecture! Busan station is so huge and act as major transportation hub in Busan.
It is situated in the Dong-gu district of Busan, making it a central transportation hub for the city. It is well-connected to various parts of Busan through public transportation, including buses and the subway. The station complex includes several facilities, such as the main station building, platforms, waiting areas, and commercial spaces. So be prepared to get lost inside.

This is a smart station which offers travel from Busan around the rest of South Korea.
There are lots of restaurants, convenience stores, toilets and luggage storage and also good views of Busan Harbour Bridge.

This is a usual station plaza and as such it provides all the necessary stores for train travel. It is quite new and very spacious and easy to get around.

Busan Station Plaza has been steadily under construction of some sort for the five years that I have been visiting the city, and there is still no end in site. It's a nice enough space but ends up being where a lot of the city's homeless end up at night.
Hopefully, once the endless construction is finished, the plaza will have something to show for it.

The Busan Station Plaza is the large open area between Busan metro station and the Busan Train Station (for KTX, etc.). From the metro station one could take the lift near Exit 4 to go to the road level. The limousine bus going to Gimhae Airport has a bus stop right there, near the lift door. There is also a taxi service. There are many shops in the Busan Train Station. In addition there are many luggage lockers (different sizes) in the train station. One could take the escalator from the road level to the ticket office (Entrance 7) and departure gates. Lockers are located on this level and in fact there are many more lockers located one floor below (near Entrance 5). At one time, I thought that I was running out of luck as all the lockers on the ticket office level were taken up, but found that there were many more one floor below. It takes a little time to learn about the area (the metro station, the train station and the plaza itself). There is also an observation deck on the upper level of the train station, with an expansive view.

Kind of hit or miss with Busan Station. Inside is adequate, lots of resturants. Bathrooms could be cleaned better. Outside the station many homeless people hangout but they don't hassle or bother you to much.

Too the train from Seoul to Busan and the Station Plaza is the first thing you see as you emerge from the building. The main modern circular sculpture dominates the space and view but there are several other pieces of art to view as you walk to the metro.

It's better to buy the flexible day pass if u already have the itinerary for the trip. You can book online with your credit card , print out the e-ticket and redeem on the arrival day at airport. When u exchanging for the pass, u can tell the service crew which are the days u want the pass to be activated, the pass is valid for almost all rides free per day. Check out at the website , search for Korail.
