Jeju Island - Gimnyeong Maze park and Love Land

Gimnyeong Maze Park

Map of the Jeju Gimnyeong Maze Park

Gimnyeong Maze Park contains a maze that has seven images incorporated in it. The maze is in the shape of the Jeju Island, and its images that can be clearly seen from above include the following: a serpent, which was an object of worship on the island until the mid-70s; native horses of Jeju Island, which were brought there by Mongolians as far back as 1276; the ship, the Sparrowhawk, that was shipwrecked on the island in 1653 bringing Hendrick Hamel and his company of Dutch sailors to the Joseon Kingdom; and dolmens that are relics from the Bronze Age. All of these images are famous symbols or landmarks of Jeju Island.


Entrance fee: 3300 won. Free parking available.
Direction: The maze park is located along the road to Manjanggul cave. Just use the road and turn in and you reach the parking area. It is a little difficult to search using GPS as the some spell as Gimnyeong while some spell as Kimnyoung or Kimnyeong.

The whole park is a very simple one. The main thing is just the maze so you walk to the ticket counter which is a small booth, pay up and walk through some garden and then there's the maze. There will be a map of the maze provided and if you follow the map, it will not be difficult to get to the top. However, if you do not follow the map of lost track of where you are in the map then it can be quite difficult to get out. I did not see any alarm or bell where you can call for help and the only way is to follow other people or fund your way to the bridge and ask for help to the people on the bridge. When I was there, there was a group of European guys who got lost and just walking round and round for some time. It is not possible to take picture of the whole maze unless you are sitting in a helicopter above. Even to get good maze pictures is quite difficult because the maze is very high and wide. However due to my great skills, I managed to get some good pictures of the maze.

Two poor visitors getting lost in the maze. Hope they can find their way out.

Without great skills like me, this is the best shot of the maze that you can get. The bridge is the first half of the maze where you can consider to be on the right track if you cross the bridge.

Love Land

Jeju Love Land.

Entrance fee: Cannot remember but is about 9000 won. Free parking available.
Direction: Search for Jeju Love Land in the GPS. It is quite famous in Jeju and with the GPS just look at searched location 80% you will find it. That is how I got to the place as it is already saved in the GPS.

This place is filled with many sculptures of love making position and penis. Something weird about the sculptures is that many of the sculptures are grandfather and grandmother. Shouldn't they be making sculptures of sexy guys and girls? Then somewhere at the end, there is a shop which sells various sex equipment and some displays. This is a place for 18+ adults. It is not an educational park. Kids can play in the kids room outside the entrance beside 7-11.

A super size sculpture of a sexy lady. This is the only sexy lady in the place. Others are either sculpture wearing masks or fat grandmother. You can stand below her backside and take pictures.

This is a funny sculpture. The dog and the guy is making V sign to each other.

Some mini figure to teach you how to make love.
