Sudgurak Jekkarak

<Special post / Collaboration>












Website: https://www.facebook.com/jejurestraunt



Sudgurak Jekkarak is a face book page that recommends great restaurant/cafe in Jeju Island. My blog usually deals more on tour sights, so I thought this will help for people who need restaurants as well.

Sudgurak Jekkarak is a student run website and the restaurants they recommend are highly reliable - students actually visit the restaurant and when they like the food, they upload their posts on Facebook with their reviews.

The photo on the right side is one of the posts they wrote. The posts are written in both Korean and English.

Yongmeori Coast/Shore is a great place to walk. You can view the beautiful sea shore and the layers of rocks (sandstone bed) that were formed during the past one thousand years. I visited here with my school friends to do a science project and it was truly amazing! You can also spot the haenyeos, the female divers in Jeju Island and the sibling island

The Legend on Yongmeori shore
This place is called Yongmeori (dragon head) because the hill near this shore looks like a dragon's
head going inside the ocean. According to the legend, king Jinshi sent his soldiers to cut off the dragon's tail and its body. This made the dragon scream with pain and fall into the ocean.

One of the best museums in Jeju Island. Although I post places in Jeju Island that I liked, this museum is one of the top museum wise. World Automobile Museum may sound unfamiliar because it seems there is absolutely no relation with Jeju Island, this museum is worthwhile visiting and I loved it.

In World Automobile Museum, you can view various cars outside and inside the museum. First of all, inside the museum, there are cars displayed, raging from the first automobile in Korea to sport cars such as lamborghini.

Outside the museum, there is a park with animals like rabbits and roe dears. Cars are also exhibited here. I personally loved the outer part of the museum because I was able to see rabbits walking around near us (they were not afraid of humans) and digging holes like they do in nature. For this reason, I strongly recommend families with children here.

The World Automobile Jeju Museum also provides free mini car ride for adults and children. You are able to choose the car that you want to ride and drive through miniature buildings (Adults or teens are allowed to drive with children sitting next to them). When I visited here, the path was longer than I thought and it didn't just go around in circles, but went around the museum. Children will love this part!
