Jeju trip planner

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. The rugged appearance of such areas stands in stark contrast with the island's beaches and sunsets. Such features mean that Koreans have long since been making trips to Jeju, particularly newlyweds. The inhabitants of the island's two main towns share a matriarchal culture that stands out from that of mainland Korea, evidenced in the exploits of haeneyo (female divers) bringing in their catch, with seafood forming a large part of the island's distinctive cuisine.
