Traditional Jeju Island village constructions, built low to avoid full force of the winds, stone walls with thatched roofs. Roof material tied down with crisscrossing ropes so all house look like covered with mattresses, nice and warm. Lava rock, being aboundant on the island, is used for building material: walls, fences, roads and who knows what else.
At the entrance there is a curious, for outsiders, looking gate. Gate for honest and respecting their neighbours people. It consists of three bars across entrance: three bars up - nobody home, one up - will be back shortly, all down - we are home.
