Why go

The Temporary Capital Memorial Hall documents Busan's pivotal role during the Korean War (1950–1953). Located in central Busan, the museum preserves artifacts, photographs, and historical records from the period when the city served as South Korea's temporary seat of government. Exhibits detail the wartime administration, civilian life under crisis, and the city's strategic importance. The hall offers visitors insight into a transformative moment in Korean modern history, when Busan became a refuge for government officials and citizens fleeing the conflict. Interactive displays and archival materials bring the era to life for history-conscious travelers.
