Dolhareubang of Jeju Island




Dolharubang or Stonegrandfather is one of Jeju Island’s unique feature. Dolharubang is a statue sculpted out of volcanic rock that looks like an old man. These statues can be seen almost everywhere in Jeju Island. They come in all sizes. 




Replica of this beloved statue is a favorite souvenir item of visitors to Jeju.
