Cheonjiyeon Waterfall
Single-drop falls crashing into a deep forest pool, dramatically floodlit after dark.

About this audio guide
Cheonjiyeon Waterfall in Jeju carries a legend about a woman named Suncheon, who married a man from another village instead of a local suitor, Myeongmun, and years later crossed his path again on this same route. The guide follows what happened when he refused to let her pass, on a stretch of trail leading down to the pond in front of you. The pond itself sits inside a bowl of dark cliff, deep enough, by the old telling, to hide whatever it holds.
