Jeju Stone Park

Jeju Stone Park (제주돌문화공원) showcases the volcanic heritage and traditional stone culture of Jeju Island. The park features extensive exhibitions of harubang (stone grandfather figures), millstones, and other artifacts carved from basalt and tuff stone. Visitors explore indoor galleries and outdoor installations that document centuries of Jeju's relationship with stone—from practical household tools to sacred monuments. The collection reflects how islanders historically shaped volcanic rock for agriculture, construction, and spiritual practices. The park provides context for understanding Jeju's unique geological landscape and the cultural significance of stone in local life.
