Jeju Island

Jeju Island is Korea's most beloved escape — a volcanic paradise of dramatic lava cliffs, emerald seas, cascading waterfalls, and the iconic Hallasan volcano. A UNESCO triple crown destination.

Must-Visit Places

• Hallasan National Park — Korea's highest peak (1,950 m). The summit hike rewards with a stunning volcanic crater lake.
• Seongsan Ilchulbong (Sunrise Peak) — A dramatic UNESCO-listed tuff cone rising from the sea. Sunrise here is unforgettable.
• Manjanggul Cave — One of the world's longest lava tube caves, stretching 13.4 km.
• Jusangjeolli Cliffs — Perfectly hexagonal basalt columns stacked like organ pipes along the coastline.
• Hamdeok Beach — Jeju's most picturesque beach, with turquoise shallow water and a walkable reef at low tide.
• Cheonjeyeon & Cheonjiyeon Waterfalls — Twin jewels of Jeju's natural beauty, surrounded by lush subtropical forest.

Food & Dining

• Heuk Dwaeji (Black Pork BBQ) — Jeju's iconic black pigs produce uniquely rich, tender meat. Grilled samgyeopsal here is on another level.
• Abalone (Jeonbok) — Freshly caught by Jeju's haenyeo (women divers). Try jeonbok juk (abalone porridge) or raw abalone sashimi.
