Seongsan Ilchulbong (성산일출봉), Jeju’s Famous Sunrise Peak

Seongsan Ilchulbong (성산일출봉) is one of the most iconic natural landmarks on the eastern side of Jeju Island (제주도). It was formed by volcanic activity in the sea, creating a dramatic crater that rises above the coastline. The name “Ilchulbong” means “sunrise peak,” because it is especially famous for its beautiful sunrise views. From the top, visitors can enjoy a wide crater, the blue ocean, and a view of Udo Island (우도) in the distance. As part of Jeju’s UNESCO World Natural Heritage site, Seongsan Ilchulbong is a must-visit destination for anyone traveling to Jeju. #SeongsanIlchulbong #JejuIsland #UNESCO #KoreaTravel #SouthKorea
