[Geoje] - Windy Hill (바람의 언덕) & Sinseondae Cliff (신선대)

Of course, Geoje Tour Bus also included these must-visit attractions in Geoje. Our guide told us that we can go down to Windy Hill ourselves which is known as filming location of Eve's Garden and Merry Go Round.

You can see the beautiful Windmill from far...

The breeze sea wind is nice when we slowly walk down to the path to the windmill.

Magnificent view of Mindong Mountain and sea indeed!

Enjoy the view and not forget to take wefie...

Enough wefie as we need to climb stairs and walk back as

our guide will bring us to Sinseondae.

He told us to gather in time so we can have more time to admire

Sinseondae, which he claimed that it's much more picturesque than

Windy Hill! Ok, Palli Palli~!!!

It's just a stone throw away from Windy Hill,

though you need to go down and climb up a bit.

But seeing this spectacular view is totally worth it!

The name Sinseondae came from ‘sinseon’ (Taoist) was given

because its scenic view, these sacred people came to the mountain to rest and play.

It is also called Gaetbawi, which is shaped like a gad, and there is a myth that if a person who wants to make a shackle makes a wish of independence on this rock, his wish will come true.

Make a wish as our guide said that the prayer will be granted!

Our guide said the rock formation which looks like stairs are actually naturally formed.

Amazing, right?!

This rock looks like a baby elephant with its trunk looking at the sea

was a filming site... Our guide mimicking the pose of
Yi Sun-Shin commanding from this spot.

Our guide asked us to take photos at this spot...

Let's enjoy the panoramic view from here

100% satisfied with the whole Geoje Bus Tour

and professional Tour Guide~!

Sinseondae Cliff should be our last place to visit for this Geoje Tour Bus. Mr Kim, our tour guide specially brought us to Hakdong Mongdol Beach because he saw that I included this in my own itinerary. I've my own itinerary in case we couldn't joined this tour.

This beach is not an ordinary sandy beach...

The beach which stretches 600m long is covered with small pebbles...

Mr Kim said that the pebbles will make unique sounds when there is wind. Maybe we're a bit unlucky as not much wind that day. But we can hear our walking sounds when stepping on the pebbles.

This beach is quite secluded, therefore the water is clear and clean. Our guide told us that the pebbles on the beach are protected, so please don't take them home for souvenir or whatever purposes as you'll be fined if you do.

Would love to spend more time, but the bus will need to send us back to Geoje station and will go back to Tongyeong.

[Geoje] - Hongpo Observatory (여차 홍포전망대)

Half a day has gone, and time to refill our tummy because we're all hungry after strolled the Oedo Botania Island.

Giant Anchovies (멸치) sculpture at the port.

Anchovies are famous in Geoje, therefore our guide recommended us to

eat speciality food here...

Anchovies set meal consist of fresh Sashimi anchovy caught in Geoje. Our table

suddenly full of everything anchovies in the different cooking method...

Spicy Anchovy Stew,...

Fried anchovy and seasoned kimchi anchovy

and appetizing banchan.

All are very delicious and our mouths were busy to chew and hands busy to pick everything. But we didn't have enough time to finish them all... feel like asking them to pack them! Make sure you eat anchovy if you're in Geoje!
