oh dear, readers who are attempting to try jeju, go equipped. check out more information about the seasons. never attempt halla mountain during winter, it's too slippery.

it takes around 8 hours up and down the peak of halla - the G______ path.

drive a car! i miss Hyundai Avante (Elantra) :(

Go to dragonhill spa and resort. 24hrs open.
This one not ahem spa. Many family members bring along thir kids and laze around in the hall.
Pay entrance fee 10000won per person.
Can go steam bath, cold room, suana room, heated pool, salted room for relaxation and a nice bath.
U can stay there for 24hrs if you have time. No restrictions.

If you have extra bullet, go for a nice scrub. About 15000won.
Dont go for their package deal at the check.in counter. Not worth leh.

Reporting from dragonhill spa.

Sauna, cold room and the salt room are on the 1st floor. All genders can share together.
The lift to the heated pool is separated. Guys is on the 5th level. Diferent lifts for girl and guy.

ups for dragon hill spa!!!! i went one a late night after a long day of sightseeing last dec and slept overnight. super shiok after you come out from there. don't just try the hot and cold room. go ahead and try the baths. but you have to be in your birthday suit. don't worry about culture shock or whatever. just act as the local when you are there. no one will stare at you. but they did look at me and my friend when we spoke in mandarin while soaking in the baths. we were observing them throughout our stay too. nothing to lose. haha!
