  • Chungcheongnam-Do 충청남도

    Chungcheongnam-Do 충청남도

    © Lonely Planet 318 Chungcheongnam-do 충청남도 It’s close to Seoul and home to the fifth largest city in South Korea, Daejeon, but Chungnam – as it’s more commonly known – is not the most scintillating of provinces. Its attractions are largely very old (5th-century Baekje capitals) or utterly recreational (a bevy of beaches). Much of the buzz in recent years has focused on a new administrative national capital Sejong City, to be built near Gongju, but whether it materialises depends on the political winds in Seoul. For now, it’s Daejeon that’s the capital manqué, with flashy KTX services, all the trappings of modern Korean life and all its lack of urban charms as well. More interesting are the small towns left in its wake: little Geumsan is the hub of the ginseng industry, while Gongju and tiny Buyeo were once capitals of the ancient Baekje dynasty. The latter towns have retained a surprising number of old fortresses, tombs and relics, chief among them the tomb of King Muryeong in Gongju – like King Tut’s tomb, it was uncovered in modern times with all its burial artefacts miraculously intact. The province’s other main draw is its beaches. Daecheon Beach in the south is widely considered to be the best on the western coast, while travellers preferring some solitude can hop on a ferry to one of the nearby islands. To the north is Taean Haean National Park, dotted with more islands, beaches and the promise of wind-whipped fresh air – just what most day-trippers from Seoul are looking for.

This unique aspect of Jeju culture encompasses a rich trove of tradition handed down to the present, including diving techniques, knowledge about surviving and living in harmony with the oceanic environment, and diverse rituals. Women divers, or haenyeo, have overcome adverse conditions to give birth to a full-fledged female profession, serving as an exemplar of persever- ance and the pioneering spirit of Jeju women.
