Cheonjeyeon Waterfalls

Cheonjiyeon Waterfall is located in Seogwipo City, Jeju Island. The strange cliffs tower into the clouds. The waterfall pours down from the black lava cliffs with a thunderous sound, like the Milky Way falling from nine days. According to legend, the seven fairies of the Jade Emperor named this waterfall Tiandiyuan after going down to earth to play. Tiandiyuan Waterfall is 22 meters high and 21 meters deep. The entire waterfall is divided into three sections. The scenery around the waterfall is beautiful, and it is a specimen area of Jeju Island to protect the original shape of nature. Therefore, all activities that damage the ecological environment, such as fishing and collecting plants, are prohibited in this area. Tourists come here every day for sightseeing. The scenic spot itself is relatively small, and the waterfall is far less spectacular than some similar waterfalls in China, but fortunately, the surrounding scenery is not bad, the vegetation is also very well protected, there are not many tourists, and it is very quiet. After entering from the entrance of the scenic spot, you will first come to an open space in front of the Tiandi Building. There is a white stone tablet of the Seven Fairies, and next to it is the Wufuquan Fountain. Putting coins into it is said to bring good luck. There are five different faces on five different faces. Animals that can pray for wealth and health, etc. Go further in and cross the high Xianlin Bridge. It drives in the middle of the second and third waterfalls. It is an iron arched bridge formed in the form of a magpie bridge. The statues of the Seven Fairies are engraved on the north and south sides. The bridge itself is steeper. , it takes some effort to go uphill. You can take pictures on the bridge, overlooking the waterfall or the sea in the distance. After crossing the bridge, go down the stone steps on the left to the Tiandiyuan Waterfall. The first section of the waterfall is Yuanchi. It is only formed when the water from the upper river flows down on a heavy rainy day, and the waterfall is usually invisible. Therefore, tourists often go to take pictures with the second and third waterfalls. The first to second waterfalls are about 300 meters long, and most of them are stone steps. The second section of the waterfall is formed by the water flowing down from the first section of the waterfall. After it falls, it merges into a pool with very clear water. Tourists can only take pictures on a platform in front of the waterfall, but cannot enter the waterfall for swimming. The third section of the waterfall is about 500 meters from the second section. Most of the steps here are wooden steps, and they are relatively steep. Be careful when playing. Basically, the time to visit these two waterfalls is about half an hour. Around the waterfall, lush evergreen trees and flowers and plants form another beautiful landscape with the changing seasons. The water in Cheonjeyeon forms a small river and flows all the way to Seogwipo Port. It is warm in winter and cool in summer, and it is very comfortable to play in summer. In addition, a grand Seven Fairy Celebration Festival is held here every May.
