Memorial towers recalling Jocheon's independence movement
Jocheon Manse Hill remembers the Jocheon independence demonstrations and the people who worked for independence. Read the descriptions of the memorial tower for patriotic martyrs and the March First (3·1) Independence Movement Monument.
The memorial tower is described as having a form reminiscent of Jeju's jeongnang gate bars. Observe its architecture, the symbols of Jeju culture and its commemorative meaning together.
Plan outdoor Manse Hill separately from the indoor memorial hall
The suggested 30–45 minutes is for a short visit to the public outdoor memorial grounds. Check admission and closure days separately for the nearby resistance memorial hall's indoor exhibits.
The area is introduced as the end of Olle Route 18 and the start of Route 19. A short historical visit takes a different amount of time from a long Olle walk, so make separate plans for a full-route walking day.
Explore the monuments' meaning with your family and protect them
With children, discuss why towers are built to remember people and events. Do not use the memorial grounds as a play area; walk quietly while observing the monuments.
Do not climb or damage monuments, and respect the spaces and routes used for ceremonies and events. Shorten your visit in heavy rain or strong wind, and return along public paths.
