Hand-built steam-style trains loop through a primeval lava-rock forest of rare northern and southern plant life.
This guide to Eco Land Theme Park traces its eight steam-style trains back to a family firm in England's Warwickshire, which studied nineteenth-century American Baldwin locomotives before handcrafting smaller Lincoln trains for Jeju. It explains how each of the eight was given a color and an island identity, from volcanic rock to wildflowers to the island's mandarins. You'll also hear about gotjawal, the jumbled lava-rock forest the trains loop through, where plants from cold and warm climates grow side by side against the usual rules.
