Let’s all experience body scrubbing together! If you’re going to Nampo-dong in Busan, this is the place to go!

Located in a convenient spot, just 8 minutes walk from Nampo Station’s Exit 7 and 5 minutes walk from Choryang Station’s Exit 1, is the sauna on the 3rd floor of the main building of Busan Tourist Hotel. This facility includes a sauna, large bath, spa, and restaurant, with the sauna open from 7 AM to 11 PM. All facilities are separated by gender, so while it may feel a bit lonely for couples, it is a safe and comfortable place to visit.
Here, you can try body scrubbing, massages, and even a wormwood steam bath. Since it’s located inside a hotel, the facility is relatively clean and relaxing.
If you are staying in Nampo-dong and want to visit a nearby jimjilbang, this is the place to go! As this is a hotel popular with Japanese tourists, the staff also offers Japanese-language support, which is very helpful.

2. Songdo Haesopia

A large jimjilbang located a bit outside the Nampo-dong area is Songdo Haesopia. It is about a 10-minute taxi ride south from Nampo-dong Station, so the access is slightly inconvenient, but it is the only large facility in the Nampo-dong area, making it a popular spot for both locals and tourists. As a new facility, it maintains a clean and fresh environment.
In addition to the typical jimjilbang facilities, it also has a gym, making it a great place to spend a long time. There are various body scrubbing courses, including options with cucumber packs, oil massages, steam, and aroma treatments. You can choose depending on your budget and the type of treatment you want!
This facility is a must-try for anyone wanting to enjoy a thorough body scrubbing experience, and it is a popular spot with many repeat visitors, including Japanese people.

◎ Summary

I’ve introduced two places in Nampo-dong, Busan where you can enjoy body scrubbing at a jimjilbang. You can choose based on location or based on the services they offer. Even if you take a quick shower in the hotel’s small bathroom, it’s hard to relieve all the fatigue from the day. If you’re staying in Nampo-dong for a few days, it might be worth visiting both! While many jimjilbangs in Korea are older and more rustic, both of these are clean and easy to visit.
In Busan, there are many jimjilbangs and spas in the resort area of Haeundae, so there are several places to enjoy body scrubbing. If you plan to go to the beach or visit theme parks, make sure to check out a jimjilbang too! You can experience a resort-style jimjilbang, which you don’t find in many other areas of Korea.
