Ulsan, Industrial metropolis in southeastern South Korea.

Ulsan stretches along Ulsan Bay at the eastern end of the Taebaek Mountains, featuring the largest automobile assembly plant and shipyard in the world.

From its origins as a small fishing port, Ulsan underwent rapid industrialization after 1962 when it received designation as a Special Industrial District.

The city celebrates the annual Ganjeolgot Sunrise Festival where residents gather at the easternmost point to welcome the first light of the year.

The metropolitan transportation system includes an extensive bus network, domestic airport connections, and access to Korea's high-speed train network KTX.

Ulsan produces more than half of South Korea's hydrogen and leads global innovation in hydrogen-powered vehicle manufacturing.
