PLAN FOR MY TRIP TO KOREA : JEJU

INTERESTING PLACES TO SEE  IN JEJU (제주):


1. Yongduam (Dragon Head Rock = 드래곤 헤드 록) 
and Seongsan Ilchulbong Sunrise Peak (일출 피크)
a volcanic crater perched out on the eastern tip of Jeju Island 

Seongsan Ilchulbong Peak (182 meters high) rose from the sea in a series of volcanic eruptions beginning over 100,000 years ago.

The site resembles an old fortress on a coastal cliff and was originally a volcanic island but was later connected as sand and gravel accumulated in between.

The sunrise seen from the peak is considered one of the most fascinating scenic views in Jeju.

Few of the (over 140) exhibits are generally shocking, and it makes for some interesting holiday snaps that you won't want to show your parents. Although you will likely see some Korean families in the park, this is one where you should definitely leave the children at home or in the attached playground. Has a sex shop attached, naturally. Elsewhere on Jeju you will find phallic representations are an ancient symbol of the island. Amusingly, the Chinese government recently prevented the opening of an imitation loveland in Chongqing. 7000 won
