Jeju is the biggest island in the Republic of Korea and is located in the southwest of the Korean Peninsula.

Basalt rocks cover more than 90% area of this volcanic island. A prestigious recreational island with a beautiful natural landscape is received as a gift from nature. The island is oval-shaped with Halla Mountain in the center stretching 73km from east to west and 41km from north to south.

It is an island with a temperate climate, where the temperature doesn’t reach sub-zero levels (in most cases) even in the winter.

First place in the world to obtain UNESCO designations in all 3 natural sciences

The value of JEJU was proved as the island received as the island was designated Biosphere Reserve in 2002, World Natural Heritage in 2007, and Global Geopark in 2010, making the sub-tropical island the only place on Earth to receive all three UNESCO designations in natural sciences. JEJU has now become a ‘treasure island of environmental assets’ that the world has to preserve.
