Jeju Island is an historical tea site where Kim, Cheong-hi (pen name: Ch'usa) grew tea and had a tea life with many other tea lovers. The island has an idealistic climate and excellent geographical conditions for producing good tea.
O'sulloc Tea Museum, located at the entrance of Seogwang Teahouse, is a cultural space and environmentally friendly relaxation area where Western and Eastern tea cultures mix with traditional and modern practices. It is also an educational place where the long history of green tea and Korean tea culture can be understood.
The museum building is modeled after a green tea cup and has a grass square and walkway with a pavilion and bridge. The road through the tea field is a famous for a place for couples to go for a walk while on a date.
Inside the museum, a cup gallery displays tea items and tea sets, a tea culture room allows visitors to view many types of tea, and a gift shop where visitors can purchase various types of tea, tea-related food, green tea ice cream, and gifts. Visitors can also view the endless green tea field, Halla-san, Sanbang-san, and the ocean scenery from the third floor observatory (reached by elevator).
