Things to do in Jeju City

I visited Jeju Island during my trip to South Korea. Located in southwestern South Korea, Jeju Island is the largest island in the country and its only special autonomous province. The direct flight from Guangzhou to Jeju Island takes about two and a half hours. Jeju Island is famous for its volcanic landscape and mild climate, earning it the nickname "Korea's Hawaii." In 2007, its natural landscapes, including Hallasan Mountain and lava caves, were listed as a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site. Famous attractions on the island include Hallasan Mountain, lava caves, Seongsan Ilchulbong Peak, and the Olle Trails, among others.

It's a pity that it was a rainy day☔️There is a long beach here and there are different water sports to enjoy. There are also many unique boutique souvenir shops and coffee shops nearby. You can enjoy breakfast and coffee while looking at the sea view. It is very healing and relaxing. It is a very Chill experience and you can have half a day of leisure. 😌

Sunshine, sand and waves. The dream trip to the ocean is just a matter of time. Warm spring is the best season. The sea breeze is the best weather. There are things to play, things to watch and things to enjoy. It's beautiful and fun.

The island has its own unique atmosphere that you won’t find on Jeju or on the Korean mainland. You can circle the island on an electric bike in 4–5 hours, but I’d dedicate a whole day to this trip. And be sure to try the local culinary delights.

Hallasan Mountain, one of South Korea's three most famous mountains, is located in the center of Jeju Island. At 1950 meters, it is the highest peak in South Korea. Hallasan is an extinct volcano, with Baekrokdam, a volcanic lake with a diameter of 500 meters, at its summit. Due to its high altitude, the climate exhibits a vertical distribution from subtropical to frigid zones, and the mountain is home to over 1800 plant species and over 4000 animal species. In 1970, Hallasan was designated a Korean National Park, and in 2007 it was designated a World Natural Heritage Site.

Aewol-eup is a well-known tourist destination in northwestern Jeju Island, South Korea, famous for its coastal scenery, sunset cafes, and cliffside walkways. Enjoying the sea view, sipping coffee, and eating oranges in Aewol-eup is a true pleasure of life. The refreshing sea breeze laps against the shore, caressing the faces of tourists, and many take photos here, creating very photogenic spots.

This pedestrian street doesn't feel short. There are cooling facilities in the middle of the road, which makes you feel a little cool when standing on it. There are basically no people during the day, but it is still quite lively at night. You can satisfy your shopping and dining needs.

I went to Jeju island with my friends on the beautiful sunshine summer day.

Black Pig Street (흑돼지거리) is located in Geonin-dong, Old Jeju City, just a 3-5 minute walk from Dongmun Traditional Market and Chilseong-ro Pedestrian Street, and a 20-minute drive from Jeju Airport. The street is very short, only 50-60 meters long, with over 30 barbecue restaurants lining both sides. The entire area is themed around black pigs, with a prominent archway and black pig sculpture at the entrance. It's the most concentrated place in Jeju Island to eat local free-range black pork, a popular spot for locals to dine and for tourists to take photos.

It's a free attraction. I walked there from the hotel where I stayed. I passed through a rapeseed field and a beautiful suspension bridge to reach Longtou Rock. There was no one there when I went there. It was almost reserved. The coast next to it was also beautiful.
