While in Jeju - we booked the Yeha bus tour and this is one of the places included to visit. We really enjoyed our time here and our guide did an excellent job of recommending how to see everything in the time we had allotted.

The view especially sunset was just amazing to observe. Crystal clear water, cosy cafes scatetred around gives happy vibes !
Hallam Park is one of the best botanical gardens we’ve visited. The paths are clearly posted and friendly to foreign visitors that don’t read Korean. We loved it. The restaurant at the entrance is only a good choice if you like Korean food. The barbecue spot inside might be a better choice for western visitors.
Allow for at least 2.5 to 3 hours to walk around. There are a number if different areas, my favourite being the bonsai trees. The park is very well kept and very tranquil. There are a couple of places that sell snacks and one restaurant on site.
You should be geared for a long walk inside the park. The ticket is a bit pricey (11,000 won per adult) with nothing much to see. There are plenty of palm trees and different types of pine trees as well but not really very rare or special species.They have collection of tropical plants (bananas, guava,mango , etc) which I am sure tourists from Southeast Asia will find boring. They have lots of cacti although not very extensive collection. May be we came at the wrong time because there were only few flowering plants. Overall, quite a waste of time and money ( and energy too).
This was one of the most popular things to do in jeju and we stayed close by so was a no brainer. Cost $11,000krw to get in, and had heaps of different plants and flowers from different parts of the world etc. overall not too bad, october is the off season to go so was very quiet. If you love plants you’ll love this if not properly not the place for you.
