YonHwaJi is the pond of lotus flowers.
YonHwa means lotus flower in Korean and Ji means place.
Actually the flowers blossom in July and August. So, the time I visited at the place the flowers already have been faded.
Well I feel little shame for that.
The story says that the pond YonHwaJi was a small pond in Korea dynasty and in 17th century they reconstructed.
After that it was built again in 1950s for 2years and it became current a lotus flowers pond.
The west southern part of the pond had been used to be drinking water and rest of places for live stocks.
Actually this lotus pond is a park for local people.
There are so many identical parks in Korea.
They look a little letdown.
However, if we make unique park in Jeju island, it will be great sources for tourism.
You will see full of lotus flowers and hydronic flowers in July and August.
Not only plants but also there are so many kinds of aquatic animals and plants.
This is a small natural eco system.
At the entrance there is a warning for taking care of children.
If you bring children you should be careful.
The depth of water looks shallow but actually it's quite deep.
Some time the accidents are happened.
There is a beautiful school next to YonHwaJi decorated in rainbow color.
The name of the school is 'Deoduk elementary school'.
I asw some tourists tried to go in to take some photos of the school.
I think it is an interesting school.
I wish I have a house like this school.
Well, this school became the model of my future house.
