All know that Jeju Island does not need a visa, bring money and passport can be set off, but the travel is needed to prepare, here for you to prepare Jeju Island short-term travel strategy, let you play around Jeju Island.

Jeju Island Route

Although it is just an island, a lot of the natural beauty of Jeju Island is spread throughout the city of Seogwipo, and the attractions are far away from each other, and the local public **** transportation in Jeju Island is not convenient, with fewer trips. To save time, it is recommended to choose a chartered bus tour around the island on one of the days, which is more free. If you know how to drive, you can also rent a car locally and drive yourself. You can first look at the map to understand

Jeju Island about the situation, the tour route is mainly divided into the east line, west line and the south line, we basically around the island to play once.

Independence Rock, the setting for Dae Jang Geum

The first stop on the chartered/driving tour started at Independence Rock, one of the locations for the important scenes of Dae Jang Geum. The sea where Independence Rock is located is the Sammei Peak sea, along the steps all the way down, you can see along the road there are a lot of local people make a wish with the stone, a little bit similar to the southwest of China's Mani Pile.

Independence Rock, as its name suggests, is the only one in the sea to grow a "sudden" strange rock stands, as far as a formidable general standing in the sea, so some people also call it General Rock. The local people like to call it Wangfu Rock, it will be compared to an old woman waiting for her husband to return to the sea, a lonely piece of rock, a little sad.

Near Independence Rock, there are many open rocky observation decks where you can reach the closest distance to the sea, but you have to pay close attention to safety because there are no railings on the rocky platforms to protect your hands.

The wooden trestle bridge that leads to Independence Rock is also known as the Olle Trail, which means "path in front of the house" in the Jeju dialect, and is ideal for light hiking.

There are eight scenic spots on the island, and you can enjoy a tour around the island. If the weather is good, the sky is blue and the sea is blue, so the scenery is very nice.

Transportation:

Take a bus to Seongsanpo Port at Jeju Coach Terminal or Jeju Seogwipo Bus Terminal (701 and 710, we recommend 710 to Seongsanpo Port, 710 has fewer stops and does not go along the traffic circle, which makes the journey shorter and saves more time), and then take a cruise ship to Ngukdo in Seongsanpo Port (round-trip ticket is 11,000 won, 10 ships per day).

Yakcheonsa Temple

Yakcheonsa Temple is the largest temple in Jeju and the largest in Asia, and is called Yakcheonsa Temple because of the sacred water that cures all diseases. The structure of Yakcheonsa is similar to that of a Chinese temple, with lush greenery and fresh air. In the front is the main hall, flanked by the bell tower and drum tower, and in front is the release pond. It is considered a very well-maintained temple among Korean temples, and at the same time, the environment is very beautiful. Korean temples are very environmentally friendly, do not burn incense, is to use money to buy rice to worship Buddha tribute to donate incense and oil.

Don't forget before you go

Although Jeju is visa-free, so you can just copy your passport and take your ticket and go. But after all, it's a foreign country, and there are still a lot of things you need to prepare beforehand.

1, exchange Korean currency

Jeju Island

The duty-free stores, convenience stores, food and beverage outlets with Chinese-speaking clerks, basically can use Alipay, and some can even use WeChat to pay, which is still relatively convenient. However, some stores that have not been developed by Alipay can only use cash to solve the problem.

Before we left, we did a Bank of China card, and in China

Banks need to call and make an appointment before 14:00 on the day before the exchange of foreign currency, otherwise the bank will not be able to exchange without preparation. This time is very important, do not miss it.

2, rent WIFI equipment or buy a phone card

I'm used to renting WIFI out of the country, because if I use a phone card, I'm especially afraid of losing the card, whether it's a WIFI or a card, the almighty Taobao can be solved.

With WIFI, it's important to remember to charge it up, and take the cable with you when you go out in case you run out of power! We have encountered such a dilemma, WIFI halfway without electricity, can only start freestyle. As it turns out, it's still possible to live off the grid, too.

3, download a good variety of map APP

Google Maps: the only real-time map, don't know where they are, are relying on Google Maps. But the version I use can't check bus routes, and you need to go over the wall to use the full version.

Korea Map: These two are used to check the location of the hotel when I booked a room, there is no real-time positioning function, so to Jeju Island

After there is no use, and can not check the bus route. But the good thing is that they are all in Chinese, which is suitable for the first time to familiarize with the location of the main attractions on Jeju Island.

In the end, even if an app are not down, it does not matter, every road, every place, there is no rely on the mouth can not go, haha! Because we didn't prepare very well, the bus routes in Jeju Island

were changed a lot, so we basically relied on our mouths to ask for directions wherever we went in those days.

4, on the Lotte, Shilla Duty Free official website to buy buy

The official website will be booked in advance than to the physical duty free store a lot more cost-effective, buy buy small sisters can not miss. In the departure, to the opposite side of the boarding gate to pick up goods can be (this process, later detailed). It is important to note that the official website booking basically 2-3 days before the departure of the order can not be placed.

5, airfare, hotel

Where to go, Flying Pig, Dianping, the U.S. group a variety of price comparison, can not be more simple.

6, conversion plug

Korea's holes are round, remember to prepare before departure, we prepared this time four just enough.

Cost rough calculation: round-trip ticket 1213 + four nights hotel 510 + exchange Korean currency 1200 + Alipay payment 100 + buy buy buy 1700 + domestic transportation and pre-preparation 100 = about 4800 yuan

Gourmet Tips

Jeju Island's distribution of food is centralized and does not require visitors to travel across the entire island to find food. Mainly distributed in Jeju City and Seogwipo City, both have a small commercial concentration area, but also concentrated a variety of gourmet food and beverage stores, convenient for tourists to focus on tasting. The main thing is that most of the food that has taken Seoul by storm can also be found on Jeju.

Black Pork

Only on Jeju Island can you get authentic Korean-style roasted black pork. Black pork is not that the meat is black, but Jeju Islanders use the smoking method when killing a pig, using whole grass to retreat the pig's hair, so its flavor permeates into the pork, and the taste becomes distinctive and more fragrant than ordinary pork. It is usually roasted over a fire until it is 8 minutes of rare, and then eaten with chili, garlic, and hot sauce wrapped in lettuce leaves or suzuki leaves along with the roasted black pork for a superb taste.

There is a famous black pork street in Jeju City, almost all of which are restaurants dealing with grilled black pork, but the following two restaurants are the most prestigious among tourists.

Seafood Hot Pot

How can you afford a trip to Jeju Island without eating seafood? There are so many different kinds of seafood, so if you want to feast on all of them, there's no better way than to eat the most famous seafood hot pot. During the meal, a pot over the fire is filled with fresh seafood, including crab, shrimp, abalone, squid, oysters, and more. The dish is served with a special Korean spicy sauce, making it a memorable meal. At the end of the meal, you can also put kimchi noodles in the hot pot, which are dipped in seafood broth for an even fresher flavor.

Shortcut Horse Meat

Jeju is a volcanic island with abundant vegetation but not much that is edible, so the shortcut horse, a native breed on Jeju, became the food of the people of Jeju. Nowadays, horse meat has become a specialty of Jeju. The horsemeat sold in the restaurants is specially bred for consumption and are all 2-3 year old foals. In Jeju, horse meat is also served in a variety of ways, including sashimi, braised, or the meat from the hind legs of the horse in raw,

made to eat in a hot pot.

Hunshin's No.1

This is a restaurant specializing in scallop dishes. The meat of the scallop sashimi is chewy and has no fishy smell, which is acceptable to me as I don't usually eat sashimi. After the whole Jeju wild silver scallop is grilled and served, the clerk will teach you how to eat it. Using a spoon, you can easily remove the spines on both sides of the fish, leaving the tender and flavorful scallop meat in the center, and eating it with slices of onion in one bite is so satisfying that I can't describe it in words. This is the best way to eat scallops ever, and the price is not cheap.

Address: 160-4 Kurakawa-ri, Andeok-myeon, Seogwipo City

This place is sensitive, but it's full of passion, and it's facing the sea, so you can also pick up the heart of a young girl. The romantic atmosphere that surrounds this tiny outlying island is the same as when a Korean actor confesses his love for you in front of the screen. Only when you really set foot on Jeju Island, you will realize that the natural scenery, cultural monuments, Korean entertainment, and the hearts of men and women are all in one place.
