Anmyeondo
Top 10 in Top 10 Most Beautiful Islands in Korea
Anmyeondo Island is one of the most beautiful islands located in Taean County, South Chungcheong Province. Yeonguijeong Kim Yuk ordered the flooding of the land between Changgiri (Anmyeoneup) and Sinonri (Nammyeon) to preserve tax delivered to Hanyang (now Seoul) from Japanese pirate pillage. To connect the Anmyeondo Island to the mainland, the Anmyeongyo bridge (length 208.5 meters) was built in 1970.
In Anmyeondo Island, the island's coast is lined with some 14 beaches as well as abundant pine trees, which are symbols of Anmyeon-eup. The island also owns Anmyeondo Natural Forest, along with the Mogamju Forest. The terrain here is vast and varied. One day you could spend hours hiking through vibrant green rice fields and jungle paths only meeting water buffalo along the way; the day after you could beach hop all day from one patch of white shore to the next. For nature lovers, there are no limits here.
