Jeju, sometimes spelled Cheju, is the largest island in Korea. This image is taken on the east coast of Jeju near Odu island. The island is volcanic like the islands of Hawaii, so some of the landscape will have similarities. This image was take as we were climbing a crater. The horses are used for climbing on, in order to have a photo opportunity. The Asian style roof is that of a Buddhist Temple. I really love the old style architecture in Asia and am sad that most of the new buildings lack the historical elements. It is understood that things change, so the changes might as well be embraced. In the meantime, photographs will help preserve history in a strange sort of way.
