Over the next few weeks I will be posting various travels that we went on.
This being the first post I wanted to take you on a virtual tour by showing you some of the driving scenery. Jeju is quite different from the rest of Korea and traffic there is quite light in comparison.
We will also visit Mysterious Road or some people call it Ghost Road where the laws of physics seem to not apply....
So here we go. ^^
Mysterious Road is quite famous on Jeju and is quite a tourist attraction. The legend has it that if you stop your car on the road you will roll forward up the hill or roll backward up the hill (depending on which side of the road you stop on of course). Either rolling bottles or cans on the road or stopping your car to see if it rolls by itself is more common than you would imagine. Watching for several minutes I saw perhaps 5 cars stop and a bunch of Chinese tourists rolling bottles and jumping all over the road! The best way to locate this road is to find out where Jeju Love Land is. The road is right outside you will see the coffee shop and Mysterious Road is right there and runs for 50 - 100 meters past the coffee shop. Go past the coffee shop until you see a sign saying "Mysterious Road Start".
Renting a Kia K5 we drove to our first place of stay the resort Dam & Roo (more on that next week along with Lotte Hotel Jeju). Jeju seems to be the land of the K5 as there are dozens driving all over the island. I think it is a favourite car for all the rental car agencies.
Lets take a little drive on a typical Jeju road:
Well this is my quick update for this week. Next week I will show you a couple of the amazing places you can stay and perhaps something more. ^^
Over the coming weeks I will be sharing more from Jeju Island but I will take a break for a week to bring you Musclemania which will be happening on the 11 of May.
Until next time have a fantastic week! ^^
