There isn't anything exciting down this street but there are quite a few things around it to check out. Take a picture and leave. Closest metro is Busan Station and it is across the street from Busan Train Station.

I walked here a couple of times at night and it did not feel like a good place. Many Russian and Filipino ladies of the night and dodgy looking bars. I would not recommend it but it's kind of interesting to walk through.

This isn't a tourist area, it's just a very strange place.

I had no idea what I was walking into when I found Texas street / China town, which was for some reason full of Russians...

I soon found out why however.

I had no issues here but was warned to be careful by a local and don't recommend you go out of your way to visit.

This street is directly linked to Chinatown. It is an extension to Chinatown.

Naturally, the sleazy activities & shops from Chinatown spilled over here. You don't feel safe walking here together with Chinatown.

The shops & street architectures here tried to replicate the cowboy town of Texas/USA.

Again, avoid this sleazy & dangerous place together with Chinatown at night unless one wants to risk being a victim of crime ( see Busan Chinatown review).

Can't understand how local authorities can allow such sleazy & dangerous activities to be openly accepted to operate here - in a high traffic tourists area thereby putting unwary tourists at risk ( just opposite Busan Main train station).

Russian Mafia / Russian "Escorts".
Don't go there after dark (or at all).
The businesses are fronted by Russian speaking Koreans, but you can tell they are not the ones in control. I would never set foot on that street again
