Visit the most beautiful hidden gem, Ulleungdo Island, and experience the most breathtaking and beautiful views. Locals believe that this remote volcanic island has a mystical energy and is a very sacred place, earning it the nickname "Mystery Island". Ulleungdo is believed to have been formed by volcanic eruptions over 2.5 million years ago. You'll be shocked by the pristine wildlife and rich primitive history that takes place away from the mainland. This island is the perfect destination for a relaxing vacation and spiritual healing, which is why we will be celebrating the Korean national holiday of Chuseok here. Chuseok is the celebration of the mid-autumn harvest season. Ulleungdo is so big and vast that you don't have to worry about overcrowding with tourists anywhere. Take a four-day trip and enjoy the beauty of nature on Ulleungdo Island that can't be found anywhere else!
