Buy food for your trip to Seogwipo at Jeju Seogwipo Maeil Olle Market

#SeogwipoTravel ✨️Seogwipo Daily Olle Market✨️ is a traditional market located in Seogwipo City, known as the number one tourist destination in Jeju. Seogwipo Daily Olle Market, which is included in the Jeju Olle Trail course, is receiving great responses from tourists through various cultural events and festivals. It mainly sells local specialties such as tangerines, hallabong, and okdom. Seogwipo was the territory of the ancient Tamna Kingdom, and in 1946, it became Namjeju-gun, and in 2006, Seogwipo City and Namjeju-gun were merged to become the current Seogwipo City. There is a story related to the name of Seogwipo. Seobul, a minister of the Qin Dynasty in China, arrived in Jeju Island while searching for the elixir of life on the orders of Qin Shi Huang. However, he failed to find the elixir of life and on his way back, he was so captivated by the beauty of Jeongbang Falls that he wrote on the wall, “Seobulgwacha,” meaning “Seobul passed by,” and returned. So, the word ‘Seogwi’, meaning ‘Seobul’, and ‘Po’, meaning ‘port’, were combined to create Seogwipo (西歸浦). The word ‘Olle’ is a Jeju dialect that refers to a narrow path that connects the main road to the front door of a house. When the market and the surrounding area were included in Jeju Olle Course 6, the name was changed to Seogwipo Maeil Olle Market. It is a market that is very crowded with tourists during the vacation season. 🎯340 Seogwi-dong, Seogwipo-si, Jeju #Seogwipo #Market #MaeilOlleMarket
