Eastern Jeju: Sunrise Peak, Maze, Haenyeo & Living Traditions
09:00 · duration, hours: approximately 7
Romantic views of East Jeju, the sea, the UNESCO-listed volcanic crater that is Jeju's calling card, the Maze Land labyrinth, the picturesque Yakcheonsa Temple with ocean views, and haenyo divers.
- Maze Land
  Maze Land is Jeju’s unique theme park of three mazes built from volcanic stone, inspired by nature, wind, and the island’s haenyeo divers.
  
  Visitors can explore basalt labyrinths shaped like typhoons or stone walls, visit the Puzzle Museum, and enjoy peaceful forest trails surrounded by camellias and ancient trees.
- Seongsan Ilchulbong (Sunrise Peak)
  Seongsan Ilchulbong (Korean: 성산일출봉), also known as Sunrise Peak, is a stunning volcanic formation located on the eastern side of Jeju Island. Rising to a height of 182 meters, this natural wonder features a volcanic crater at its summit, offering breathtaking views of the island's landscapes.
  
  Seongsan Ilchulbong is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site listing under Jeju Island and its lava tubes, recognized for its geological and scenic significance. A visit to this magnificent peak promises an unforgettable encounter with Jeju's natural beauty.
- Umutgae Coast
  Umutgae Coast (우뭇개 해안) offers dramatic ocean views and a glimpse into Jeju’s living tradition. Here, the Haenyeo divers perform their afternoon free-diving show, emerging from the sea with baskets of fresh shellfish — a rare encounter with the island’s true spirit.
- Yakchunsa Temple
  Since ancient times, this place was known as Tweksaemi — in standard Korean, Doyaksaem (道藥泉), meaning a spring of exceptionally pure and healing water. The name of Yakchunsa Temple originates from this ancient designation, and today the temple stands on a hillside offering magnificent views of the vast Pacific Ocean.
Western Jeju: Nature, Tea, and the Spirited Garden

One of the world’s largest bonsai gardens, the “Spirited Garden,” adds a meditative touch with its harmony of nature and art.

The route creates a calm, contemplative rhythm, allowing you to experience the deeper beauty of Jeju.

- Spirited Garden jeju
  The Spirited Garden is one of the largest bonsai (punjae) gardens in the world, designed as a space of tranquility, contemplation, and harmony. It features hundreds of crafted living artworks surrounded by ponds, stone arrangements, and a carefully designed landscape.
- Osulloc Tea Museum
  OSULLOC Tea Museum on Jeju Island showcases the history and culture of Korean tea amid the island’s vast organic tea fields.
