Ulleungdo
Ulleungdo is a South Korean island 120 km east of the Korean Peninsula, formerly known as the Dagelet Island or Argonaut Island in Europe, and known as Yùlíng-dǎo in Chinese and Utsuryō-tō in Japanese. Volcanic in origin, the rocky steep-sided island is the top of a large stratovolcano that rises from the seafloor, reaching a maximum elevation of 984 meters at Seonginbong Peak. Ulleung County, North Gyeongsang Province, South Korea, is home to the island, which is a renowned tourist attraction. After tourism, fishing is the largest source of income, especially the well-known squid harvest, which can be seen drying in the sun in numerous locations.
