Course information

Historic artifacts and relics that you encounter in each and every tourist destination or even those you pass by the window on the bus travelling around Yeosu on the Romantic Bus are enough to make you understand the ancient provincial history of Yeosu that it kept from the ancient times.

Odongdo Island is where you can appreciate the dark blue sea of Namhae from the excitingly dancing musical fountain, barefoot park, Sinudae Tunnel, Odongdo Lighthouse and the observatory. The entire island is full of camellia trees, green bamboo trees and silver magnolia trees.

Jinnamgwan Guesthouse is registered as No. 304 Natural Treasure and is the biggest single-story wooden building that exists until today. It served as the Jeolla Jwasuyeong and Navy Headquarters of Three Provinces during the Japanese Invasion of Korea in 1592 and it was where the Turtle Ship was first built.

In the vicinity of Yi Sun-sin Square are fine delicacies on the Jwasuyeong Food Culture Street. Visitors have a broad range of choices from spicy raw tonguefish salad to soy sauce marinated crab, eel soup, duck soup and Korean meal set.

Maritime & Fisheries Science Museum has all about sea creatures that are well organized for keen visitors. It is also equipped with a trial fishing site where visitors can catch fish by hands, and a view point over the southern sea. On the way up to the Hyangiram Hermitage, when you bend down to pass through the natural stone Iljumun Gate and enter the narrow passageway, you can finally get to the Hyangiram Hermitage.

Hyangiram Hermitage, beautifully overlooking the sea, is full of amazing and extraordinary scenery including a rock with its back cracked like a turtle. It is a place of beautiful sunset and sunrise and it has a forest of old camellia trees.

Yeosu Fish Market is where you can get local specialties of Yeosu including fresh live fish, dried fish and Dolsan leaf mustard kimchi.
