Folklore & Natural History Museum

Opened in 1984, the Folklore & Natural History Museum is a premier museum in Jeju. It houses approximately 12,000 artifacts across several sections, including the Natural History Exhibition Hall (Geology and Terrestrial Ecology Halls), the Folklore Exhibition Hall, and the Jeju Sea Exhibition Hall. The lobby features a 12.6-meter-long minke whale skeleton specimen and a large-scale fish diorama, offering visitors a multi-dimensional look at the formation of Jeju and the traditional way of life of its people, including Haenyeo and agriculture.
