Percent Map travel guild (2026-05-26): Stones Tell Stories of War and Refuge in Ami-dong

Hidden within Busan's colorful houses and winding alleys lies the unique Tombstone Cultural Village. Built during the Korean War, this village was created by refugees who used discarded Japanese tombstones from an abandoned cemetery to construct their homes. These inscribed stones now serve as silent witnesses to history. As May brings warm sunshine with temperatures around 22°C, visiting Ami-dong offers a deeply moving glimpse into a past era of hardship and resilience.
