Jeju Island, South Korea

Loveland Erotic Sculpture Park

The Loveland Erotic Sculpture Park is a themed park featuring 140 sculptures of people in various erotic poses. It was opened in 2004 with the help of 20 artists and is the first erotic museum in Korea. The location for the park was chosen for a reason. As in Korea marriages are typically arranged with parental consent, newlyweds got to know each other closely only during their honeymoon trips, which were often made to this island. That is why it was decided to create on Jejudo Island a themed park of an erotic nature to promote sexual education for young people. The park is open every day; 100 of its sculptures are outdoors and 40 are located in the gallery.

Soin Guk Miniature Park

Themed park “Songguk” is one of the most impressive attractions in South Korea. On the vast grounds of the park, centuries, countries, and cultures are brought together in one place: its many exhibits are replicas of famous structures and works of art from different times and peoples. In addition to monuments of Korea’s traditional and modern culture, there are around one hundred masterpieces from 30 countries around the world. Among them are the French Arc de Triomphe and Notre-Dame Cathedral, the American Statue of Liberty and the White House, the Taj Mahal Palace from India, Egyptian statues of the Sphinx and Ramses II, the Greek Parthenon temple, and other architectural wonders. Russia is represented here by replicas of the Main Building of Moscow State University, St. Basil’s Cathedral, and the church in Kizhi.

Chunmun Beach

Chunmun Beach is one of the most popular beaches in South Korea, stretching along the southern coast of Jeju Island in the city of Seogwipo, on the grounds of the famous Chunmun resort. Its length reaches 560 meters, and its width is 30 meters. The sand at Chunmun Beach is exceptionally fine and multi-colored due to specks of gray, red, and black sand of volcanic origin. The water depth near the shore is only about 1.2 meters, so it warms up quickly-therefore, it offers ideal conditions for families with children. Everything you need for a day at the beach is available for rent; on-site you’ll find showers, changing rooms, as well as cafés and restaurants.

Yomiji Botanical Garden

Peak Sŏnsan Incheolbon

The name of Mount Seongsan Ilchulbong is translated as "Sunrise", as the peak is located in the eastern part of the island. The peak looks like a castle, surrounded by beautiful landscapes, and is a popular spot for tourists. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The peak was formed as a result of volcanic eruptions over 100,000 years. Today, it features a vast crater with a diameter of 600 meters and a height of 90 meters. The crater’s rim is surrounded by jagged stones, while the crater itself is covered with grass. The peak and the hill connected to the crater make a wonderful place for strolling and horseback riding. In addition, from the top of the peak there are wonderful views of the surrounding area, especially during sunrise.

Udo Sea Park

Udo, whose name in translation means “cow island,” owes its original shape to its form, reminiscent of a cow lying on the sea surface with its head raised. On the island, which is 17 kilometers in circumference, there are about 700 houses and 1800 residents. Volcanic stone serves as the building material for buildings, roads, fences, and sculptures. Almost all the women of the island, according to an age-old tradition, are divers who collect rapans and other mollusks. Udo Marine Park is a delightful corner of nature untouched by civilization. White coral sand on the island’s beach, abundant underwater fauna, silence, and the chance for seclusion attract many tourists here.
