Nurimaru APAC House
Busan | Building
Nurimaru APEC House was built to host the 2005 APEC Summit meeting at the tip of Dongbaek Island (동백섬), which stands near Haeundae Beach. This eye-catching glassy building has been one of Busan’s symbolic places since then.
In 2005, Busan hosted APEC Summit, and leaders from 21 member economies came to Nurimaru to meet together. ‘Nuri’ is a Korean word meaning the world and ‘Maru’ means the summit. Thus, the name ‘Nurimaru’ means ‘the house where world leaders gathered.’
