One thing I notice in Jeju-do, most CU convenient store built on a standalone place like this. This one in particular located out of nowhere, surrounded by a vegetable farm. I have fun checking out the surrounding and even visited the vegetable farm nearby.
'Bijanamu' means "Nutmeg Tree". Bijarim Nutmeg Forest was a designated Korea's Natural Monument No. 374. There around 2,800 nutmeg trees here aged from 500 - 800 years old. I love the smells and refreshing smells of Bija seeds here. Even keep few in my jacket throughout my journey in Jeju-do. I will take out and smells the aromatherapy from time to time.
