Ulsan is South Korea's industrial capital and surprises visitors with a fascinating mix of heavy industry and untouched nature. The city on the southeast coast is home to the world's largest automobile manufacturer (Hyundai) and Korea's largest refinery, yet just outside the gates await whales, bamboo forests, and prehistoric rock paintings.
The Bangudae rock paintings — a UNESCO World Heritage site — showcase 7,000-year-old depictions of whales, turtles, and hunting scenes and are the oldest representations of whaling in the world. The Jangsaengpo Whale Museum documents Ulsan's history as Korea's most important whaling location.
The Taehwa River runs through the city and offers a 4 km long bamboo forest path — a green oasis in the midst of the industrial city. Ganjeolgot Point is the easternmost point of the Korean mainland and a popular spot for the first sunrise of the new year.
The Daewangam coast features dramatic rock formations and pine forests right by the Sea of Japan. In January, whales can actually be spotted from the coast — Ulsan is the only place in Korea for whale watching.
