The facts
The o’sulloc Museum, located on Jeju-do Island near Seogwangdawon, teaches visitors about Korea’s traditional tea culture. The “o” in “o’sulloc”, means to appreciate and enjoy, and it also stands for the origin of sulloc, only sulloc, and of sulloc tea.
The museum, which first opened in September 2001,is widely known in Korea. The entire building takes the shape of a green tea cup. It seeks to harmonize the cultures of the West and East, and past traditions with the modern world.

The big green tea plantation right across the museum is excellent for photo ops. They have excellent tea options in their shop. It was big enough and we attempted to line up for the green tea ice cream but the crowd was huge and we hated to waste our time. So we left empty-handed. Again, try to visit on off-peak hours and avoid lunch time at all costs.

A lovely place to visit in Jeju. The building is surrounded by lush tea plantation. There are various types of exotic fragrant tea being sold in the museum. Grab a matcha drink from the cafe for a taste of their green tea, or head to the nearby Innisfree house to try the soap making activity.

It is the one of the places I really like. Actually I like green tea foods, but it provides the best desserts. I suggest you ear greentea roll cakes and icecream.
