JEJU ISLAND, KOREA
I would like to visit Jeju Island at Korean. Jeju Island is a volcanic island, dominated by Halla-san, a volcano 1,950 metres high and the highest mountain in South Korea. The island was created entirely from volcanic eruptions approximately 2 million years ago, during the time period from the Tertiary to the beginning of the Quaternary period, and consists chiefly of basalt and lava. It has a subtropical climate, warmer than the rest of Korea, with four distinct seasons. Half of the summer is rainy, and the winter is fairly dry. The Jeju City has a population about 560,000 people. Before the Japanese annexation in 1910, the island was usually known as Quelpart to Europeans. When Korea was annexed by Japan in 1910, Jeju then became known as Saishu, which is the Japanese reading of the hanja for Jeju. Before 2000, when the Seoul government changed the official Romanization of Hangul, Jeju-do was spelled Cheju-do. There are many sights that are most popular places for tourist. Example, the Cheonjiyeon waterfalls, Mountain Halla, Hyeobje cave and Hyeongje island. I will enjoy a lots of leisure sports in Jeju island including golf, horse riding, hunting, fishing, mountain climbing, etc. Depending on seasons, I can enjoy many festivals likes penguin swimming contest in winter, cherry blossom festival in spring, midsummer night beach festival in summer, horse festival in autumn and many more.
