Chapter 56: Jeju Island
My trip to Korea really started today, and I was fascinated by the beautiful scenery of Jeju Island, and during the trip, we let go of all our worries, played to the fullest, and enjoyed the highγγγγγγ
When I traveled to Jeju Island, I knew something about Jeju Island, Jeju Island:
With a mild climate throughout the year, it is known as the "Hawaii of Korea" and has a long coastline of 256 kilometers, forming a land known as "Dreamland". The mysterious natural landscapes left over from ancient times, the folk culture condensed by the wisdom of Jeju's ancestors, and more than 18,000 stories about ghosts and gods make Jeju Island full of spirituality. The best time to visit Jeju Island is the sound of water, and the spring and autumn seasons are the most suitable for visiting Jeju Island. The climate of Jeju Island can be clearly divided into a continental maritime climate depending on the seasons. The temperature difference in winter is large and dry, and the summer is humid and rainy, with an average annual temperature of about 16 degrees Celsius, a maximum temperature of 33.5 degrees Celsius in summer, and a minimum temperature of 1 degree Celsius in winter. Jeju Island is windy and foggy.
In the spring, cherry blossoms, rape flowers, and azaleas bloom in Jeju Island, and in May, the mountain flowers bloom like a burning color. In summer, the melodious sound of birdsong, waterfalls, magical valleys and dense greenery from the verdant jungle make a wonderful landscape. Purple mango flowers decorate Jeju Island in autumn, and the self-absorbed maple leaves silently dye the whole body red; In winter, Jeju Island seems to grow taller when the dead trees are decorated with snow, and the snowflakes that have not bloomed and fall are always smiling in the cold wind.
Jeju Island is said to have been an independent country called "Tamna" in ancient times, and it is also an island of festivals where various festivals are held throughout the year to enjoy unique pleasures and experience another charm of Jeju Island. Starting with the Seongsan Sunrise Festival on January 1, the Great Cherry Blossom Festival and Rape Flower Festival in spring, the Seven Fairies Festival in May, and the sports-loving Jeju people hold the International Citizen Marathon and the Bracken Picking Contest in mid-June. In the summer, romantic Jeju people naturally don't miss the annual seaside festival on a midsummer night; With the blooming of purple mango flowers and the arrival of autumn unconsciously, there is good news on the island with a strong cultural atmosphere, that is, the International Wind Band Festival and the Halla Cultural Festival are held, which can really cause a sensation on the island; And once the snow comes to winter, the Hallasan Snowflake Festival and the Lantern Festival Wildfire Festival are also quite colorful.
It's a pity that we're in the most beautiful time now! Early in the morning, I told Kaede that I was going to visit Jeju Island, and although I missed the season, it was good to see Jeju Island in early autumn! Kaede and I got up early in the morning, had some breakfast, and were getting ready for Jeju Island! Kaede looked at the excited me and said, "Worry, I've already asked someone to buy the ticket, you don't have to be in such a hurry!" I hugged him gently and said, "Kaede, you've thought so thoughtfully, thank you!" β
"Thank you! If you want to thank youγγγγ" He didn't finish the last few words, and I asked, "Thank you for what?" β
"Have a good meal in the evening." His words were so ambiguous, and he was still whispering in my ear, and my face suddenly turned red!
"You're so bad! Ignore you! I pretended to be angry and said, "Let's go, the weather is pretty good today, it's the best time to travel!" β
I arrived at the Seoul airport, took a flight to Jeju Island, and after a two- or three-hour flight, we finally arrived at Jeju Island, known as the 'Hawaii of the East'. In fact, it is not as good as the legend, it is all advertising! In fact, it is not as interesting as some of the attractions in China!
"What, disappointed?" Kaede smiled slightly and said.
"No," I replied
"Not yet, it's all written on the face, in fact, whether a place is beautiful or not lies in its culture, and it depends on who you play with, am I right?" A slight smile crept into the corner of Kaede's mouth.
"Yes, Kaede, let's go sit and watch over there, where are the many couples over there, what are they doing?" Looking at the distance ahead, there are many people around, and they are also couples, holding hands, I also want to go up and have a look. I said and pulled Feng forward, when I got there, I saw that it was a wedding dress exhibition, and I saw that the couple was smiling the happiest, what Luoya wedding show, looking for the best couple combination, you can sign up on the spot! Those wedding dresses are beautiful! The people around me looked at us with amazement when they saw me and my brother, and I knew that no matter where we went, it was a beautiful scenery, and the handsome host came over and said to us in Korean, "Mr. and Miss, do you want to participate!" If you win the first place, you can get a lot of prizes. I only heard them chirping and croaking, but I didn't understand it, so I asked Kaede, "Kaede, what are you talking about?" β
"He asked us to come to their wedding show, and I refused." Kaede is generally too lazy to pay attention to this kind of occasion!
"Oh, that's right!" I answered, I knew Kaede didn't like this kind of occasion, but I didn't like it either! If it was photographed by a reporter, then I would report it again, and I said, "Then let's go and go somewhere else." "The handsome Korean guy looked at this pair of handsome men and beautiful women, looking at their dress, they should be rich people, and they seem to be foreign tourists! That beautiful woman didn't seem to understand what she was saying just now! He watched as two beautiful backs disappeared into the crowdγγγγγγ
It was almost lunchtime, and I was feeling a little hungry, so I said to Kaede, "Kaede, let's go have some lunch!" I'm hungry! β
"Well, there's no decent restaurant here, let's go over there!" Feng pulled forward, and after walking for more than ten minutes, we came to a French restaurant, where we ordered some random dishes to solve the problem of food and clothing, and continued our trip, I wanted to see what I could buy, and bring some gifts back to Aunt Li Xue'er!
We came to the souvenir shop, I have honey, I want to buy some back to Aunt Lee, I heard that the local honey of Jeju Island is of good quality, which is unattainable in other regions. The most famous are mandarin honey and rape honey, which are extracted from the flowers of mandarin orange and rape respectively, and have a very unique fragrance in themselves. This honey is very beneficial to the body, very healthy, and it is of great help to people with bad stomach. We brought back five or six pounds!
"Sorrow, how did you come up with the idea of buying honey?" Kaede asked with a smile.
"I think it's good for the body, so I want to buy it for Uncle Ping and them to taste!" I smiled and replied.
"Worried, where are we going to go?" Kaede asked.
I smiled and said, "Go to the jewelry store again and bring some small gifts for Cher." β
We came to a Silla jewelry store, there are a lot of things in it, I went in and saw the puppet angel, very cute, there is a pendant on it, I plan to buy this, I pointed to the puppet angel and said to Feng, so that he can talk to the boss, "Worry, how many are you going to buy?" Kaede asked.
"Three, me and Xing, one for each of Cher." I replied casually.
"Okay!" Kaede said with a smile, and then said to the boss in Korean, "Give me three puppet angels." β
"Yes, sir, please wait a minute." After a while, the boss packed them, Kaede opened the money, and we left.
Today I went shopping for a day, had a lot of fun, we plan to go back to the Imperial Hotel, and then rest for a day, the day after tomorrow to return to China, out of two three days, the company has no brother, no, or go back early, this said I have to go back to homework, the dead teacher assigned a lot of homework, but also to write papers!
