Besides its long mercantile history, Busan today is also known for the legacy of sacrifice that was left behind by the United Nations force that fought to defend South Korea from the invading communist forces.
The United Nations Memorial Cemetery is located at Tanggok. The cemetery covers over 14 hectares and contains 2,300 graves. This place is unique as it is the only United Nations cemetery in the world.
