This island exudes a sense of mystery since it possesses important rare geological features as well as lava caves, dynamic volcanic topography, and natural ecology. The beautiful and unique scenery of Jeju embraces the island. Including the Geomunoreum Lava Tube System connected by caves such as Baengduigul, Manjangul, Kimnyeungul, Yongchundongul, and Dangchumuldongul, the lava caves are like blood vessels that connect the underground world of Jeju. There is no place like Jeju that possesses various forms of volcanic topography within a single island. Jeju intactly possesses the history of changes in earth's crust due to volcanic activities.
