Gijang County, Administrative county in Busan, South Korea.

Gijang County extends along the eastern coastline of Busan Metropolitan City, featuring sandy beaches, fishing ports, and mountain ranges.

The county developed from a traditional fishing settlement into a modern administrative region that contributed to Busan's economic growth through maritime trade.

Gijang County maintains its fishing heritage through multiple seafood festivals, including celebrations dedicated to anchovies, seaweed, and conger eel.

The county provides efficient public transportation connections to central Busan, with regular bus services operating between major attractions and residential areas.

Mount Daleum, recorded as Cwibok-san in historical documents, stands as the primary landmark among eight designated natural sites in Gijang.
