Moments at Jeju-do, South Korean

Jeju Island, also known as Jeju-do, is the only autonomous province of South Korea and the country’s largest island. Although the retreat is not a famous destination for the western countries, the Asians are very familiar with its amazing geographic and cultural potential. Its popularity has grown in the past few years, especially among the young couples who seem to consider it a mystic place for romantic escapes. Jeju Island was entirely created from volcanic eruptions. Its landscape is dominated by Halla Mountain, the famous 1,950 meter-high volcano and the highest mountain in South Korea. Given the island’s isolation, the people of Jeju have developed a culture and language that are different from those of mainland Korea, with many local legends and mystic beliefs. They even named it the “Island of the Gods”, inspired by a legend that tells the story of demi-gods that once inhabited these lands. As you experience the island, keep an eye out for distinct cultural artifacts and stones with different shapes, considered to have a protecting power for the inhabitants. #jejuisland #southkorean #korea #jeju #beautifulsunsets #beautifulbeach #beaches #beach #wonderfull #jeju #bestislandtraveltowns#naturalwonders#beaches
