OVERVIEW

View a volcanic crater so spectacular that it has become a Korean Natural Monument and explore a park with eerie stone statues that celebrate Jeju’s volcanic heritage. As you approach the extinct Sangumburi Crater, you will notice that its interior is shallow, broad and shaped like a natural stadium. Unlike other such craters, it didn’t fill with water after the eruption, which encouraged lush foliage to grow. The guide may point out flora such as red-wood evergreen oaks and mountain strawberry trees, depending on the season. For an introduction to the island’s unusual stone culture and mythology, you will browse the enlightening Jeju Stone Museum. In the surrounding park, you will find traditional thatched-roof houses, bizarrely shaped geological formations and dolhareubang statues, which are stone sculptures that symbolize protection and good fortune.


HIGHLIGHTS
• Explore an unusual volcanic crater filled with lush foliage rather than water.
• Delve into the island’s stone culture at Jeju Stone Park and its museum.
• Walk about the park and behold its seemingly countless stone statues
