The important Effects of Geotourism in Jeju

Jeju Island is famous for Korean. Many Koreans go to Jeju for enjoying their holidays. We can have very  interesting and new experiences, like picking tangerines and riding horeses. Jeju also has many superb natural landscapes. It was created by a series of volcanic activities resulting of natural caves, mountains, rocks and plants that are unique to other landforms. So we can travel Jeju by geotourism. By geotourism, we can see the real beauty of Jeju Island. Geotourism has important effects in Jeju because tourists can enjoy the wonderful natural landscapes and it increases the local economy.  

One reason why geotourism has important effects in Jeju is that tourists can enjoy the wonderful natural landscapes, not man-made structures. Jeju has been selected as one of the New Seven Wonders of Nature and UNESCO as a world natural Heritage Site. Tourists can climb Halla Mountain which is the highest in Korea and Seongsan Illchulbong Tuff Cone which is a huge crater. Through Olleh Route, tourists can look around famous landmarks in Jeju. It has several section and provides tourists to see beautiful natural scene in Jeju.

       Another reason why geotourism has important effects is that it can increase the local economy. As Jeju Island becomes more popular from the foreign people and many Korean people moves to Jeju Island for realizing slow and well-being life, it has been more commercial. For example, the chain facilities have increased 100 times as compared with facilities in 2010. By geotourism, we can increase the local economy and we can contribute to the local business by going to the local places, staying the local hotels and eating local food.

To continue to see the beautiful landscapes in Jeju and preserve local economy, the government has to activate geotourism and we have to travel by geotourism rather than traveling by commercial tour. A couple of years later, Jeju will have the big problem to threaten the local people
