Travelling with a Baby: Korea Day 11 Jeju Island [[Cheonjeyeon Waterfall + Seonimgyo Bridge + Jusangjeolli Cliff + EMart]]

There are three waterfalls within Jeju Island that are reccomended to pay a visit to. However, we were short of time and hence, decided to pay Cheongjeyeon Waterfall a visit together with Seonimgyo Bridge and Jusangjeolli Cliff which all happended to be located in the same Jungmum Resort area

Cheongjeyeon Waterfall + Seonimgyo Bridge
GPS:738-1529

Cheongjeyeon Waterfall also known as "The pond of Emperor of Heaven" has three tiers to it. We visited all three following the trail before heading to Seonimgyo Bridge located in Cheongjeyeon Valley.

When we were at Cheongjeyeon Waterfall, there were very little visitors. Hence, making it a very calming and pretty place to visit. We enjoyed the stroll very much.
Seonimgyo Bridge is an arch bridge that has seven nymphs carved on the side of it. Connecting Cheonjeyeon to the Jungmum Tourist Complex, the Seonimgyo Bridge is a high and steep bridge that provides a spectacular view of the Cheonjeyeon Waterfall.
Within Cheonjeyeon Valley lies a temple like structure which is the Cheongeru tower where painting of the Cheonjeyeon Waterfall's legend are showcased on the ceiling structures. Good place to rest and enjoy the scenic view of Jeju.
On our way out, we bought a bottle of Jeju fresh orange juice to share out of curiosity. It turned out to be very refreshing after our long stroll!
Jusangjeolli Cliff

Address: 36-30, Ieodo-ro, Seogwipo, Jeju Island 63547

GPS: 738-1521


We headed next to Jungmun Resort to visit the Jusangjeolli Cliff. Situated on the coast of Jungmun Resort, the Junsangjeolli Cliff are black rock pillars shaped either rectangular or hexagonal and are formed by lava!

The Jusangjeolli Cliff can be viewed via an observation deck within Jungmun Resort. To be honest, it wasn't as spectacular looking as seen on the internet. But it was still a great sight to see the wonders of mother's nature as everything was formed naturally when the lava from Hallasan moutain erupted into the sea of Jungmun.
After some twenty minutes on the observation deck, we made our way to E-mart for some food and shopping before heading back to our airbnb to do some packing as we will be jetting off the next day to Incheon.
Last picture before I end my post! Jeju special drink from Starbucks. Greentea with Orange. Pretty awesome tasting, hence, worth a mention here! :)
