The National Maritime Museum in Busan is based on the theme of "My Ocean, Our Future" and is divided into four parts: permanent exhibition, children's museum, 4D image gallery and outdoor exhibition. The permanent exhibition covers 8 permanent exhibition halls of nautical ships, marine historical figures, marine culture, marine industry, marine science, marine territory, marine life and marine experience, introducing all things related to the ocean. The Children's Museum helps children easily understand the sea and the environment through experience and experimental displays, animations of the Antarctic penguins returning home, and experiential activities and performances such as coastal surveys, harbor activities, and deep-sea activities with space animations. Through the application of 4D technology, 4D images bring tourists a virtual experience of the realistic ocean world. The exterior of the National Maritime Museum is a beautiful building constructed by visualizing water droplets, making it a landmark of world-class maritime Korea. In terms of size, it is the third largest building that Korea is proud of. The National Maritime Museum has a collection of more than 14,000 exhibits, allowing visitors to look at the past and peek into the future through these marine artifacts.

The National Maritime Museum is also a very unique place. This museum is also the largest marine life exhibition hall in Busan, owned by the Korean government, and this museum is quite unique.
This museum is a bit like a seafood biomuseum, with many prehistoric scenes restored. There are many specimens recovered in the scene. The sea and land creatures of the Korean Peninsula are exhibited through modern explanations. Not bad.
Busan is a small fishing port town. It is a national museum with historical exhibitions and beautiful boat models. It includes an aquarium and interactive games. The exhibition of marine protection is very detailed. The information of non-renewable resources can be printed free of charge.
This museum on Youngdo Island, you can take bus 66 from Nanpu Station. They have some knowledge about North Korea, how they can conduct activities at sea and so on. Upstairs you can learn about boats, underwater marine life, and even boys exploring the ocean during the day. There is an aquarium on the 3rd floor where you can walk down to see sharks and fish swimming and so on. Outside, you can walk around, look at the scenery, look at the buildings, the museum looks like a spaceship outside. The best place is that it's free, so what do you have to lose? Visiting this place mainly because it is within walking distance of the Hilton Busan I stayed at and I must admit that there is no particularly strong interest in fishing. I found this museum quite old and not attractive enough for contemporary visitors. The exhibits are very static, mostly in Korean. They tried to make dramatic effects with models, but the results were not good, and the aquarium that was going to end the visit was small. If you bring your children together, it will be more attractive. Besides, I don’t think it’s a maritime museum, actually more like a fishing-related museum, and I feel like their translated names even imply that.
The aquarium is clean and clean. There are many kinds of marine life. It is suitable for taking children.
