class="apple-converted-space"> South Korea. The city was situated on Masan Bay approximately 35 km west of Busan. It was known for its textile industry, and it was the site of Hite Brewery's production facilities.

During the control of the Mongolians, the town was known as Happo.  Therefore, the old and still frequently used name for Masan-man is Happo-man.

Masan was known for its highest peak, Muhaksan. The name Masan means "horse mountain". For that reason, many place names in Masan incorporate the syllable ma, meaning "horse" and san, meaning "mountain"
