Overview
Cheonjeyeon, meaning 'pond where heavenly gods descend to bathe,' is a three-tiered waterfall ranked alongside Cheonjiyeon and Jeongbang as one of Jeju's three great falls. The first tier usually runs dry but is spectacular after rain, while the second and third tiers flow year-round. The Chilseonnyo Bridge (Fairy Bridge) spanning the falls is a striking photo spot, and night lighting gives the area a distinctive mood. Admission KRW 2,500. Located within the Jungmun Tourist Complex.
Travel Tips
Visit right after rain to see all three tiers flowing spectacularly. Don't miss the Chilseonnyo Bridge lit up at night.
