VISIT JEJU

At Hwabuk Port, which used to be the entrance to Jejudo Island from the inland, many local government officials built monuments to honor their work and dedication when they left Jejudo Island. Currently, 13 stone monuments stand at the port. At the coast in front of Stele Street of Hwabuk, Hwanhaejangseong Fortress, which was a fortress built to defend against the entry of Sambyeolcho, stands along the coast for 117km. At Hwabuk Port, Haesinsa Shrine (designated as City/Province-Designated Monument 22), which was a shrine to pray for the safety of the seamen, can be found. If you stand on the Stele Street of Hwabuk, you can almost see the footsteps of the government officials that were dispatched to Jejudo Island during the Joseon Dynasty. Each and every stone monument beholds the soul of the people in the past that have not been forgotten even after hundreds of years.
