The Myeongnyang Marine Cable Car connects the Wusuyeong tourist site in Haenam County with Jindo Tower in Jindo County and is one of the recommended travel courses in Jeollado, beloved by many tourists.

It crosses over the whirlpool sea of Uldolmok, the site of the Battle of Myeongnyang, famously depicted in the domestic box office record-holder and number one audience-ranked film ‘Myeongnyang,’ and the upcoming release at the end of July, ‘Hansan: Rising Dragon.’ Visitors can enjoy a healing trip while admiring the stunning views of the Myeongnyang Bridge, the archipelago’s scenic beauty, and the mysterious Uldolmok whirlpool harmoniously combined.

A representative of the Myeongnyang Marine Cable Car stated, “In honor of the Month of Patriots and Veterans in June, we wanted to offer benefits as a token of gratitude to many who are dedicating themselves to the nation across various sectors of society. We also hope that many people will look upon the Uldolmok Strait whirlpool and remember that Admiral Yi Sun-sin devoted himself to the country during the Japanese invasions of 1597.”

Furthermore, starting from the 23rd, visitors using the Myeongnyang Marine Cable Car will be able to enter Haenam and Jindo counties’ directly managed tourist sites (Wusuyeong Tourist Site, Jindo Tower, Duryun Miro Park, Gosan Yun Seon-do Historic Site, and Ttangkkeut Observatory) free of charge.

By presenting the Myeongnyang Marine Cable Car ticket at the ticket booths of the directly managed tourist sites in Jindo and Haenam, visitors can enter for free. The validity period is within 7 days from the date of issue for Haenam’s sites, and only on the day of issue for Jindo’s sites.
