A volcanic island located in the southern tip of KOrea, Jeju Island contains unique geographical environments, the history of Tamna-guk, and a unique folk culture – characteristics that cannot be seen anywhere else. Geographically, there are forests and valleys with abundant animal and plant life centered around Mt. Halla, which is located in the middle of the island. Not only are the elaborate beauty of nature at parasitic volcanoes and craters, caves and meadows dazzling, but also the coastal area has stunning views.
Because of this beautiful scenery, Jeju was named a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site.
Jeju Island is also often called Samda (literally, “three many”) Island (because it has a lot of rocks, wind, and women). Jeju Island was created due to volcanic activity, one of its characteristics. As such, the people of Jeju have cleared many stones to cultivate fields. Also, because Jeju Island is geographically located on the path of typhoons, the people of Jeju must sometimes battle with the sea. For these reasons, there has been more women, as many men of Jeju struggled and died while fishing out at sea.
