Hyeopjae/Geumneung Healing Course: A Neighborhood to Enjoy Jeju's Summer

The best way to enjoy Jeju is to explore every corner of a neighborhood to discover its unique charm. Following Part 1 on the old downtown area, we present the Hyeopjae/Geumneung healing course, where you can feel the refreshing essence of summer! These two areas had various names before their administrative districts were consolidated. Hyeopjae was called Seopjae or Hyeopjae due to the abundance of bush willow trees. Geumneung was once called Baeryeong and eventually became Geumneung, taking its name from the local Geumdongsan hill within the village. The two locations are very close to each other, making them perfect for walking through the connected neighborhoods. Furthermore, they are perfectly optimized for enjoying the sea, making them an irresistible destination.
