The Jindo Moses Miracle


The Jindo Moses Miracle is one of the world's most amazing natural phenomenons happens twice a year in Jindo island, the third largest island in Korea next to Jejudo and Geojodo island. It's nearly the end of February and mid of June, during low tide, a land path of 2.8 kilometers long and 40 meters wide is revealed, connecting the islands of Jindo and Mondo for about an hour before being submerged again. This amazing phenomenon resembles 'The Splitting of the Red Sea' in the Book of Exodus in the old Testament, that's why this event is called "The Miracle of Moses".

A festival called The Yeongdeung Festival is dedicated to celebrate this natural wonder. During the festival, original folk plays of Jindo are performed and would draw tourist from aroound the world into Jindo island.

Jeju Love Land


Jeju Love Land or Sex theme park is an adult only theme park, the only park of its kind in Korea, featuring 140 works of arts created by 20 artists from Hongik University in Seoul. Opened for the first time on November 16, 2004 the park has become one of top tourist spots on the island. The park is only 10 minutes from Jeju International Airport, open from 9 am till midnight and costs 7,000 won for admission. I do recomend to visit this park in the evening when the naughty yet humorous sculptures lit up by beautiful lightings. The official website describes the park as 'a place where sexually-oriented art and eroticism meet, breaking the traditional taboos surrounding love, and is a place where visitors can appreciate the natural beauty of love'.
