Where to Stay in Jindo
Jindo is an island, but it is connected to the mainland by bridges so you can drive in.
The island is large, so where you stay depends on what you plan to see.
This guide focuses on Uisin-myeon in the southeastern part of the island.
Uisin-myeon
Uisin-myeon is home to Ullimsanbang and Modo Island, one end of the Miracle Sea Road.
Ullimsanbang is where Sochi Heo Ryeon, a painter from the late Joseon Dynasty, stayed.
Today, you can see paintings by the Heo family at the Sochi Memorial Hall.
The Miracle Sea Road is a sea route of about 2.8 km that opens between Hoedong-ri in Gogun-myeon and Modo in Uisin-myeon.
The sea path opens only at specific times of the year.

The sea below the bridge is Uldolmok, where the Battle of Myeongnyang took place.
On Manggeumsan Mountain on the Jindo side, Jindo Tower overlooks Uldolmok and Jindo Bridge.
