Yongduam Rock, also known as Dragon Head Rock, is such a cool spot! The rock formation actually looks like a dragon’s head rising out of the sea. The view there is stunning, especially with the ocean as the backdrop. It was a little crowded when I went, but still worth the quick stop.

The Café was rebuilt from a resort. The view is excellent, with a view of the Morning Star Peak (새별오름) and wind turbines, and there is a small ranch nearby. There are many kinds of bread, cakes and drinks, all of which have the flavor of Jeju Island. A Korean friend took us to this special attraction. The first impression was that it looked like the exterior wall of the Korean drama "Hotel Del Luna", which was dilapidated and old. In addition, it was foggy and scary that day, so I thought I was going to explore. Once you enter, you will find two completely different worlds. There are modern design elements inside, while retaining the original walls. It is a tall building with large floor-to-ceiling windows. Going up to the second floor, there are arched glass and crystal lamp designs, and the architectural style is unique. There are different natural scenery in each season, snow in winter and hydrangea in summer. This Café is famous for its pink silvergrass and spectacular scenery.

#5月好去地方2025 Address: 20, 관덕로14길, Jeju City, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province (about 10 minutes walk from Jeju City Hall and Central Underground Street) Atmosphere/Facilities: Dongmun Market is one of the oldest traditional markets in Jeju Island. It has been in operation since 1945 and is a must-visit for local residents and tourists. The market is large and has a canopy design, so you can go shopping safely even when it rains. The goods sold are all-encompassing, from fresh seafood, fruits, dry goods, clothing, daily necessities to a wide range of cooked snacks. There are clean toilets on site, and some stalls also provide electronic payment and take-out packaging, which is very convenient. Tickets: Free admission ⸻ Features: • Locals go shopping every day, affordable and friendly • A variety of Jeju local delicacies: black pork sushi, fish cakes, spicy rice cakes, seafood pancakes, orange juice, etc. • The vendors are lively, the bosses are very friendly, and some can communicate in Chinese or Japanese • It is still lively at night, a good choice for sightseeing with a strong night market feel • Near the central underground street, you can go shopping Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5) ⸻ 🍊Experience: Eat one bite after another, Jeju Dongmun Market is delicious! Before coming to Jeju, I heard that "Dongmun Market" is a microcosm of food and folk culture. This time I walked in in person and really fell in love with this lively and humane place. We arrived around 4pm. It was still early, but the market was already crowded. The air was filled with the aroma of frying, boiling, deep-frying and roasting, which instantly whetted our appetite. There are so many signature snacks here that it is simply irresistible. I first bought a black pork sushi, which smelled of roasting. The pork was thick and juicy, paired with vinegar rice and onion shreds. It was not greasy at all, and I felt happy after taking a bite. Then I tried the seafood pancake, which was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, with a lot of ingredients. You can eat octopus, shrimp, and leeks. Paired with the store's homemade hot sauce, it was perfect! I also drank a glass of juice squeezed from fresh Jeju oranges, which was sweet and sour and very refreshing. Another surprise was the stall selling spicy stir-fried rice cakes and fish cakes. The rice cakes were chewy, the sauce was sweet and spicy, and the fish cakes were so delicious that I couldn't stop eating them. Seeing many Korean Ajummas queuing up here, I knew I made the right choice. In addition to food, the market also sells many Jeju specialties, such as dried citrus fruits, orange chocolate, natural skin care products, etc., which are all suitable as souvenirs. I even bought a bag of handmade soap, which is made from Jeju volcanic ash and citrus peel extracts. The fragrance is natural and rich in texture. Dongmen Market is not only a place to eat, but also makes people feel the warmth of local life in Jeju. Most of the bosses are very enthusiastic. Some of them can speak simple Chinese or Japanese, and they can communicate without Korean. When I took out my camera to take pictures, some vendors even took the initiative to pose and smile, which was very cute. Although there are many people in the market, the overall movement line is clear, clean and tidy, and there is no greasy or messy feeling. The lights will be turned on at night, and there is a lively feeling of a night market. After eating, you can also take a walk to the nearby central underground street to digest it. Perfect! This trip to Dongmen Market made me deeply realize that "eating is the fastest way to know a city." Every bite of snacks and every smile brings me closer to the island of Jeju. If you also love local snacks and want to experience the passion of common people's culture, then you definitely can't miss Dongmun Market! #Jeju #JejuDongmunMarket #JejuDowntown #JejuCheck-inHotspot #JejuMustGo #JejuMustVisit #JejuIsland #jeju_island_tour

Woljeongri Beach is one of those spots in Jeju that just hits right. Clear blue waters, white sand, and a row of cute seaside cafes that make it perfect for a laidback afternoon. The beach itself isn’t huge, but the vibe is super chill — people sunbathing, taking photos, or just lounging with an iced latte in hand. I love that we can grab a drink or have a lunch and sit right by the glass windows facing the ocean — it’s so peaceful. If you’re into beach cafés and soft sea breeze moments, this spot is for you ✨ 🌊 #summervacay #thingstodo #travel #jeju

#Travel Course Jeju Airport is a great place to kill time! 📍Yongduam (2nd photo) 10 minutes from the airport! A must-see course where you can enjoy the scenery of waves crashing over the rocks and even airplane shots🛫 📍Dodudong Rainbow Coastal Road (1st and 3rd photos) A short walking path along the colorful barrier walls Great for taking pictures📸 📍Iho Tewoo Beach (4th and 5th photos) There is a horse lighthouse photo zone A quiet and leisurely seaside walk🌅 It takes 30 minutes to get there And 2-3 hours was enough for the stay #Jeju Island Travel

🌊 Jeju Island's famous blue jelly-like sea When staying at a hotel, it’s a must to choose one by the seaside. Imagine soaking in a bubble bath while enjoying the romantic sunrise and sunset. Highly recommend this hotel located near the airport. For April 2025, the price including tax is approximately HKD $1100. If you opt out of the bath amenities, the price becomes even more affordable. The rooms are spacious and clean, and transportation is very convenient. We took an early morning flight and easily hailed a taxi. Using Kaokao Taxi, you can even get a ride from remote farms—highly recommended! 👏🏼 Even at 11 PM in the city, we managed to get a taxi back to the hotel. The room is equipped with a curling iron and an LG Styler 😳—major bonus points! Although it’s near the airport, the rooms are surprisingly quiet, with no noticeable airplane noise 😯. I stayed for two nights and woke up naturally both mornings. There’s a self-operated convenience store downstairs, and the staff also serve as front desk personnel. If you’re arriving on a late-night flight, make sure to contact them in advance. Despite being by the seaside, the area is lively! Nearby restaurants stay open late, and there are plenty of people jogging early in the morning before sunrise. There are various attractions on both sides of the hotel, making it highly recommended for cycling enthusiasts. You can rent a bike near the airport and ride along the coast to reach Aewol. 🏨 MER BLEUE 📍 680, Dodu 2-dong, Jeju City 🚕 13 minutes from the airport

If you're visiting Jeju, make sure to set aside some time for a leisurely stroll along the **Dodu Rainbow Coastal Road**! Located just about a 10-minute drive from the airport, this vibrant road features railings painted in bright rainbow colors, perfectly complementing the stunning blue coastline—an ideal spot for taking photos and checking in 📸. Along the way, you'll also find adorable haenyeo (female divers) sculptures, showcasing Jeju's unique local culture 🌊. Feeling tired? There are plenty of artsy cafes and restaurants nearby where you can take a break, sip on a drink, and enjoy the ocean view, adding to the charm. It's recommended to visit in the early morning or before sunset when the crowds are sparse, the lighting is beautiful, and you can savor the gentle sea breeze 🌅.

#OutdoorDate ##JejuIsland Jeju Aewol is always greeted by the wind first. When I leave the airport and drive onto the Aewol coastal road, my mind switches to travel mode from that moment on. The beginning of this trip was meat noodles. I went there ‘because I was hungry’ without any grand plans. But that one bowl changed the mood of the trip. Tender meat in rich pork broth, chewy noodles. Even if I eat it as a bibim or as a warm soup, it feels like my stomach is relieved. As I quietly slurp and eat, I thought that this is a luxury that can only be enjoyed in Jeju. After finishing the meal, I drove along the Aewol coastal road. Even when the sun is high in the sky, this road is always leisurely. The scenery of the blue sea and black basalt just passing by outside the window is healing. Here and there, I noticed cafes with a faint coffee aroma, but among them, a cafe called ‘Haejigae’ really stood out. The name itself already has a sunset in it. If you stop by around sunset, you can have a cup of coffee with the sky turning red across the sea. I sat by the window, ordered a soufflé, and looked at the sunlight spreading out, and it felt like time had stopped. When the sunset sets, Aewol is the most beautiful. Light spreads along the coastline, the wind blows, and even people walking by look up at the sky in silence. At that moment, everyone becomes a poet. As I finished the day, I thought of meat noodles again. That one bowl was the beginning, and if this sunset is the end, then a day in Aewol remains like a poem that cannot be replaced by anything else.

Let me introduce you to a hidden healing spot that tourists usually don't know about 🤍 This area is perfect for a light stroll along the exotic palm tree path surrounding the pond. The fountain operates at specific times, adding to the relaxing atmosphere. It's especially beautiful on sunny days 😆 Rather than making a special trip, I recommend visiting if you're looking for a place to walk near Aewol or if your accommodation is nearby. 📍Yeonhwaji Pond

Jeju Island becomes a popular destination in early summer as beautiful hydrangeas bloom across various spots. Here are three highly recommended locations: Camellia Hill A vast garden filled with colorful hydrangeas, making it a favorite photo spot. Noksa Temple A hidden gem where hydrangeas bloom in a tranquil atmosphere, offering a calming experience. Hallim Park A romantic place where you can enjoy a hydrangea tunnel alongside diverse plants.

#summervacay Jeju is the perfect mix of nature and chill vibes — just what I needed for a weekend reset. I explored Seongsan Ilchulbong at sunrise and marveled at lava fields near Manjanggul Cave. Jeju’s specialty cafés stole my heart — coffee with ocean views at Bomnal Café and tea in a tangerine orchard. I dipped my toes into Hamdeok Beach, tasted fresh abalone porridge, and even spotted haenyeo divers at work. From volcanic cliffs to coastal drives, Jeju is slow travel at its best. Peaceful, photogenic, and endlessly refreshing.

#Travel itinerary #Jeju #Jeju Island travel Even without a complicated plan, Jeju's scenery made every moment a trip. The sea and sky unfolding wherever I turned, the wind blowing over the mountain, and just looking at the scenery in silence was healing enough. It's not all captured in the photo, but the air, light, and temperature of that moment were stored in my heart. Rather than digesting the schedule, it was a day that just flowed along with Jeju. Rather than moving the trip like a 'checklist', I thought it was a good time to slow down to match the scenery. In Jeju, even though the day passed slowly, it wasn't a waste at all!
