A lava rock on the coast of Jeju City shaped like a dragon’s head raised to the sky. It is only 10 minutes from the airport and makes a convenient photo stop on arrival or departure day.
Yongduam Rock is an approximately 10-meter-high rock formed from lava that cooled and was eroded by waves. From the side, it looks like a dragon raising its head out to sea. According to legend, it is the dragon that stole the jewel of Hallasan and was shot down, turning into this rock. Viewing platforms and seaside trails offer shots from different angles. Nearby, the suspension bridge in Yongyeon Valley is lit at night, and the eastern coastal road has several seaside cafés and seafood restaurants. Admission is free.
