Seongsan Ilchubong (Sunrise Peak) | |
| Life in Korea rating: 4 | Average member rating: N/A (0 ratings) |
Near the eastern town of Songsan-ri, a volcanic crater with vertical cliffs rises up
from the shore. As the easternmost tip of Jeju Island, this area is the first to greet
each day's new sun, thus earning the name of "Sunrise Peak." A hefty climb brings
visitors to the top of the peak. Visitors are prevented from entering the crater by barbed
wire, but they can still enjoy the panoramic views of the surrounding area. Jagged rocks
stick up like teeth along the crater's perimeter. It is definitely worth the view, even if
you do not make it in time for the sunrise.
