Jeju Folklore and Natural History Museum

An intriguing museum where you can explore how Jeju Island was formed, its unique landscapes and ecology, various wildlife, as well as the island’s history, culture, and customs. It also reveals how the people of Jeju lived in the past. With both indoor and outdoor sections, it is truly worth a visit 🤩 On the day we went, we saw many Korean elementary school students visiting, even kindergarteners, which gave the place a lively and vibrant atmosphere 🤣 The atmosphere was lively but not that noisy, and notably, there were few boisterous tourists from that excessively populous Asian big country, making it relatively peaceful. We spent about two hours there, taking our time to enjoy the exhibits in comfort. Outside, there is also a small park, which is quite pleasant for a leisurely stroll 🤣

Good to understand about Jeju's history, economy, developmental phases, culture, biodiversity etc. But contents were quite dry. Overall still worth a visit for educational purposes. Tickets easily bought on the spo

Very interesting museum, besides any other typical museum, has its charm and full of the history of Jeju, really recommended to see.

This is a wonderful museum to educate visitors on Jeju Island. There are exhibits on the people of Jeju, and their traditions. There are detail exhibits that show the types of animals, vegetations, predators, and produce that are on and around the island. We really enjoyed our time in the museum. It gave us a lot of insight on how the island evolved and the eco system here. It's very affordable, I highly recommend coming here to learn about the island.

Really interesting museum with lots of areas covering pre-history up to present day. Lovely to learn about how people lived on the island. As a note though, not everything has an English translation. There was a guide in the halls who spoke to us and was really knowledgeable and interesting.

Really cool small museum telling Jeju's story from pre-history to the modern era, staff are lovely too! Takes an hour give or take

Small museum, were you can learn about Jejus volcanoes, animals, old traditions and history. But it was not really suitable for non-Korean speakers, and it felt more oriented towards kids. There was a little English text, but it was always much shorter and simplified, compared to the Korean text. And often there would be no explanation when going from one theme to another. So they should probably rethink the museum if they want to make it accessible to foreigners.

Interesting to roam around and read about Jeju history but not an immersive museum. The layout is a little bland and I got bored halfway through. Good place to pass time though.
