You left your plans at home, right? Then you're all set.

지도를 든 도꼬

Hi there!
I'm Dokko, your guide at Amudena.
I'm actually a burr seed, the kind that hitches a ride on passersby's clothes and travels.
This time, I'm sticking to you!

“Amudena” is Korean for “anywhere.” Wherever the wheel lands, that’s where you’re going.

What's Seogwipo-si like?

안경 쓴 도꼬

I'll tell you just a little of what I know.

South of Hallasan, this city takes up the whole lower half of Jeju Island.

Seongsan Ilchulbong at the eastern tip, Sanbangsan in the west, and in the middle of town, waterfalls drop into the sea.

The Seogwipo Chilsimni Festival is in autumn and the Canola Flower Festival in spring. There are three 5-day markets too!
