Ulsan, located in the southeast of South Korea along the Sea of Japan, is a captivating blend of industrial advancement and natural beauty. Known as the heart of the country's automobile and shipbuilding industries, Ulsan houses the world's largest automobile assembly plant run by Hyundai Motors, as well as the world's largest shipyard operated by Hyundai Heavy Industries. However, it's not just about industry in Ulsan – the city is also famed for its scenic coastal areas with beautiful beaches and dramatic cliffs, such as Ilsan Beach and Daewangam Park. Visitors are also drawn to Ulsan's resplendent Grand Parks and whale-watching attraction at Jangsaengpo Whale Museum, lending the city an exciting mix of urban buzz and natural allure.

Like other Korean cities, Ulsan is very safe. However, compared to the neighboring cities of Busan and Gyeongju, there is not much to see and the food tastes bad.
What is worth seeing in Ulsan is the spectacular night view of petrochemical plants.
