Introducing Pohang
Pohang is a good springboard to Ulleungdo or the even more remote Dokdo, but isn’t particularly scenic in itself. The largest city on Korea’s east coast and an important industrial centre, Pohang is dominated by Posco (Pohang Iron & Steel Company), the world’s second-largest steel maker. The city centre is quite lively, however, and Bukbu Beach on the north side of town is popular with both visitors and locals. The two central intersections, Ogeori and Yukgeori, (‘five-road’ and ‘six-road’ junctions) brim with cafés, clothing stores, hofs, restaurants and game parlours. Another lodging, dining and entertainment strip faces lively Bukbu Beach.
