5 days in Jeju Itinerary

The main town on the largest of Korea's islands, Jeju has a volcanic landscape protected by UNESCO. The World Heritage-listed volcanic island includes the country's highest peak, sets of impressive lava tubes and columns, and several crater lakes.

Step off the beaten path and head to Jeju Stone Park and Jeju Folklore & Natural Museum. Step out of the city life by going to Seongsan Ilchulbong and Hallasan. You'll find plenty of places to visit near Jeju: Seogwipo (Halla Mountain, Jungmun Saekdal Beach, &more). There's much more to do: Head underground at Manjanggul Cave, don't miss a visit to Mysterious Road (Dokkaebi Road), head off the coast to Udo, and examine the collection at Angel and Woodcutter Museum.
