The 40-step Culture & Tourism Theme Street is a 450-meter street leading up to the 40-step stairway of the '40-step Cultural Center' and continues to the Palseong Tour. The time-honored 40-step stairway embodies the joys and sorrows of refugees and those displaced by the Korean War. The entire area has been recently renovated to reflect life in Korea in the 50s & 60s. The 40-step Culture & Tourism Theme Street was designated 'The Best Street' by the Busan municipal government in June 2004.
