Arles Cat Cafe
Arles Cat Cafe is a small cat cafe in a yellow two-storey house on the Dalmaji-gil hillside in Jung-dong, Haeundae-gu, next to a small temple across the road from Dalmaji Catholic Church. Opened in 2026, it combines time with resident cats with an art studio that runs optional one-day painting classes; visitors who only want to see the cats book a standard entry ticket. To keep the cats calm, no more than 15 visitors are admitted at a time, and children aged six and over may enter. On weekdays there is no time limit, while weekend and holiday tickets are sold for one or two hours. The cafe is open Wednesday to Sunday in the afternoon and evening and closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.
