Information:
Ulleungdo is a pentagon-shaped island located 92km away from Dokdo.
The island was made from a series of volcanic eruptions.
Its highest peak is called Seonginbong Peak, and there is a village along the coastline on the slope.
On the north side is a caldera crater which collapsed to create the Nari Basin and the Albong Basin.
Level ground is difficult to find here and the shores are mostly cliffs.
There are a lot of snow in the winter.
About half of the people work in the fishing industry.
Corn, potatoes, wheat and beans were cultivated here, but nowadays mountain plants and medicinal herbs are mostly grown instead.
There are dongbaek trees and some 650 other plants and trees thriving on the island.
The neighboring waters is the junction line between two cold & warm ocean currents, where many squids, saury and pollacks are caught.
The Ulleungdo squid is especially famous for their outstanding quality.
It has been said that there are no thieves, pollution or snakes on Ulleungdo Island.
On the other hand, there are many aromatic trees, wind, beautiful women, water and rocks.
This is why it is called the island of The Three Mu (The Chinese character meaning ' have nothing') and Five Da (The Chinese character meaning 'have many of'). You can enjoy the scenery by taking a cruise around Ulleungdo, Gwaneumdo Islands, and a natural tunnel.
Elephant Rock, Samseonan, and Lion Rock are some of the other tourist attractions praised by tourists.
