Day 9: Jeju - Drived in one big circle of the island

Day 9: The Shilla Hotel - Hallim town- Jejusi- Yongduam Rock (Dragon head rock) - The Mysterious Road - Manjanggul Lava tube Cave - The Shilla Hotel

Lunch of the day was grilled fish....

and seafood soup..
side dish with taugeh...
At the beginning, the plan was to go to Hallim park but I was lost and missed the destination and ended up we went to a further place at jejusi. We almost missed the Yongduam rock with some confusing road sign.

Here's the Yongduam rock, a rock which is unique because it resembles a dragon head.

The next destination was the Mysterious road, where the road which seems to be going uphill with our naked eyes is actually going downhill. A lot of cars were testing the magical effect of the road at free gear sliding along the road.There were many stones statue next to the road.

Finally, we reached the must see site in my list, Manjanggul Lava Tube. It was very far from jejusi, which has taken me around 2 hours to reach. Most of our valuable time was consumed in driving to the destination. What a long drive!

Manjanggul Lava Tube, another UNESCO world natural heritage, is worth visiting. It is very cold in the cave, I guess, it's around 18 degree celcius so be reminded to bring a jacket there.

The entrance of lava tube.

I was taking video.. :D

At the very end of the cave, you would be able to admire the longest lava pillar in the world, formed from solidified lava. Lava rocks at the surrounding area.
Resembled the lava pillar in the cave.

Other existing lava tube system in Jejudo.
This was my very last day for the car rental service. I would have to bid goodbye to this dashing car later at night.
For a tiring day, we awarded ourselves with a local buffet at Han's Place, closed by to the ICC at Jungmun Resort. A sumptuous dinner that cost KRW24 500 per person.
