Overview
Created in 1987 by Frederick Dustin, an American professor who fell in love with Jeju, Gimnyeong Maze Park is Korea's first hedge maze, where visitors navigate cedar and privet hedges to find an exit shaped like the map of Jeju. Successfully completing the maze comes with a bell-ringing tradition to celebrate the achievement, making it especially popular with families. Pairs well with nearby Manjanggul Cave and Gimnyeong Beach. Admission KRW 5,000. About 5 minutes by car from Manjanggul Cave.
Travel Tips
Plan it as a half-day route with Manjanggul Cave. Ring the bell if you complete the maze.
