4. Lunch
5. Manjanggul lava tube
6. Jongdalli coast road & Haenye museum 



Point of the tour course2: If you want to see more deep inside of Jeju island, I strongly recommend this course. For a long time Jeju had been very harsh island for living, so that people were vulnerable to nature. Because of this kind of situation Jeju people have created so many god and goddess. That's why Jeju island is known for its diverse mythologies. In this course we will visit at a real shamanic shrine.

Jeju island has 368 volcanic craters, so it is called a paradise of craters. We will climb one of the most beautiful volcanic craters in Jeju island. Well, we will go not only a crater but also a lava tube(actually we call it a tube instead of a cave). Do you want to explore the longest lava cave in the world? Then, here we go!

Have you ever heard of woman diver in Jeju island? The job of diving into the water is endangered now. Let's see the sad history of woman divers.

* Notice - this course needs a lot of walking.
If you are ready to walk, then take this course.


1. Jeju natural folkore museum





Jeju island had been isolated for a long time. Actually it was an independant maritime kingdom once called 'Tamra kingdom'. If you want to know about history and culture of Jeju island, this is the best place for it. The statue of a woman carrying a water jar is one of symbols of Jeju island. Why?  If you are curious about that, then Jeju natural and folkore museum will give you an answer.  


2. Waheul Bonhya dang (Shamanic shrine)




No matter what kind of god or goddess people have believed in to struggle harsh environment for a long time. Jeju island is known for its diverse god and goddess. If you want to understand Jeju people's life, you should know the mechanism of their belief. Even though this is not a touristic attraction, Waheul Bonhyang dang is worth place visiting for understanding of Jeju culture.





3. Darangshi volcanic crater




Jeju island is known for a paradise of volcanic craters. Darangshi volcanic crater is a queen of craters in Jeju island. It is 382m height and the depth of crater itself is 115m. Walking on the rim of the top gives you maginificent view of eastern part of Jeju island. Darangshi crater also has a tragic story which is one of the biggest massacre happened in 1940s in Jeju island. This crater gives you not only a great view but also historical story.




4. Manjanggul lava tube



Manjanggul lava tube is the longest lava tube in the world discovered so far. The total length is 7.8km but it opens to the public only 1km. 
However, it shows you vivid vestiges lava flowing happened 500,000 years ago within 1km. At the end of the tube there is a lava column(7.8m) which is the biggest one in the world. Mangjaggul lava tube has been registered as Natural Heritage of the World by UNESCO in 2007.





6. Haenye Museum



Haenye(Jeju woman diver) can be seen only in Jeju island. This Jeju woman's primitive job has been come down generations to generations but now it is endangered as the society being mordenized. Jeju Haenye Museum is located in Jongdali coast line because the sea on this coast line is well known for Jeju women's diving working. Why don't you see real Haenye and learn about them?
