Travelingbrookie Says: We went to the Delphic Games in Sinsan Park and Jeju Cultural Center. There was more hype than what we actually saw, which is common in South Korea. There were supposed to be 50 countries represented, but we only saw 6 mentioned. Out of the 6 about 4 were Asian countries....
DaeBoong Nong Jang Garden: Fresh Pheasant!
D_Shannon Says: . Cheju is famous for food – seafood, horsemeat and, apparently, pheasant. Our chef took us out to the backyard and let us watch as he expertly caught and beheaded a large bird for our dinner. Our meal came in courses – or stages, as the owner’s son (a Japanese major at...
D_Shannon Says: You can't go to Korea without sampling soju (Korea's answer to Japan's sake or Mongolia's vodka) and you certainly can't go to Cheju without trying the local brew - it's so strong that apparently they can't even export it to mainland Korea! For proper atmosphere, head to the...

Not as grand as I though it was........
jaam Says: Most of the points of interests in this island seems to be geared for tourists....The one I was so disappointed with was The Shinyoung Cinema Museum. I was expecting a "micro" universal studio type theme and it didn't even come close. Mostly posters and photos of past and...
Jeju Is a Major Agricultural/Horticultural Centre
Hmmmm Says: Jeju Island is very gardened. The Island is famous for two main crops, Tangerines and garlic. Both are ubiquitous. But also other crops are grown. Flowers are becoming a popular crop.Go and have your photo taken in a Tangerine orchard. Everyone does it. Some orchards even...
