Understanding Jeju as the Island of World Peace through exhibits

The Peace Center introduces the history of Jeju's designation as the Island of World Peace and efforts to put peace into practice. It offers a place to explore Jeju's social stories behind its sea and resort scenery.

Explore the background of peace, including the meaning of moving from the suffering associated with Jeju 4·3 toward reconciliation and mutual flourishing, as well as summit diplomacy. Observe how the same theme of peace is explained through different historical experiences.

About 1 hour is an editorial itinerary for reading exhibition explanations. Check the current exhibition layout and open areas; do not expect particular past exhibitions or activities to be offered permanently.

Discussing reconciliation and coexistence as a family

With children, start a discussion about peace with their experiences of resolving conflicts with friends. Guardians can read explanations of difficult events alongside them and adjust the visit's pace to their age.

Follow guidance for exhibits and photography, and reduce outdoor travel according to rain and wind. Nearby hotels and conference facilities are separate visitor spaces from the Peace Center; check which viewing areas are open to the public.

Combining a Jungmun coastal walk with peace exhibitions

The reference address is 중문관광로 227-24. This is a different facility from the similarly named International Convention Center Jeju, so confirm the exact name and entrance.

Daepo Jusangjeolli Cliff is an option for coastal geology after the exhibitions. Yeomiji Botanical Garden adds another indoor and garden visit. On rainy days, consider each facility's operation and outdoor travel as well.
