| Description |
|
The Jusangjeolli are stone pillars piled up along the coast and is a designated
cultural monument of Jejudo Island. The Jusangjeolli was formed when the lava
from Mt.Hallasan flew to the sea of Jungmun. They are rock pillars shaped like
cubes or hexagons of various sizes. The administration of the district named
them 'Jisatgae Rocks' from their old name 'Jisatgae'. It is also famous for its
20m cliff with the high tides and sea angling. If you follow the farm road 600m
to the southwest from Depo-dong, at the end of the pine tree forest is a cliff.
By this cliff is the Jisatgae Coast with the stone pillars. The pillar-shaped
cubic or hexagonal rocks stand like artifacts, as if a stonemason had shaved and
trimmed them. This beautiful site is like a painting of mother nature. When the
tides are high, they jump as if lava were spouting, up to 10 meters high.
