Seongeup Folk Village, Jeju

2.8

#1 of 15 in Sightseeing in Jeju

Battlefield Historic Site

See scenes of traditional Korean life at Seongeup Folk Village, a small, inhabited town that also operates as a government-funded open-air museum. The rock walls and thatched roofs of the buildings have a pleasant, pastoral look to them, while a large number of cultural points of interest, including Confucian shrines and schools, stone statues, and monuments, transport visitors back in time. Look out for the local black-haired pigs running around, a central (and by all accounts very nutritious) aspect of Jeju folk culture. Put Seongeup Folk Village into our Jeju travel itinerary planner and find out what's close by, where to stay, and where to head next.

볼것도 없고 아무것도 없었다. 고양이 한 마리가 황량한 이 곳을 돌아다닐 뿐...주민분들이 사신다고 하는데 사람은 딱 한 명 보았고 관광객은 우리밖에 없었다. 그냥 집만 보다가 10여분만에 나와 버린곳이었다. 뭔가 관광지로서 대책 마련이 시급해 보였다. more »

There was nothing to see. Cats roam around the desolate this place one as well ... Residents, who have seen only one person to live and tourists we had out there. Just less than 10 minutes from home drove me there. As a tourist destination is something that measures sigeubhae.

a small village to learn about history and tradional culture of jeju. There will be a short introduction by local resident which is interesting. The culture and enviroment should be promoted, protected and preserved, but not to make it for commercial business.

It was dead when we visited (mid March 2017, on a Saturday). Would skip it. Did visit an artisan liquor maker where we purchased nearly 2L of a special type of rice wine for 15000 krw.

Though korea is a modern country, the korean government has made this a heritage village to depict the way of life of village folk as it was several years ago.My visit to this place was informative, enjoyable and memorable.
