Jeju City: Tapdong, Dongmun Market & Yongduam: what to see and do
A working port city where market stalls, a sea promenade and volcanic rock sit within a short walk of each other.
Known for
- Dongmun Market, Jeju's classic traditional market
- Tapdong seafront promenade by the harbour
- Yongduam, the Dragon Head Rock
What to do
Graze through Dongmun Market for black pork, fresh seafood and Jeju tangerine snacks, then walk the Tapdong seafront and finish at Yongduam, a basalt rock shaped like a dragon's head.
Tip: Easy without a car: the area is walkable and city buses or a short taxi connect it to the airport and hotels.
