A strip of artificial reef is built on the sea surface, and two red and white lighthouses stand there.
"Because of the existence of these two lighthouses, Niudao is also called the Island of Lighthouses." Li Xianghe began to show off his knowledge.
Before coming, she spent a whole night researching all the major attractions in Jeju Island so as not to run out of topics to talk about during the trip.
Naturally, Ushijima is included in the travel plans.
“And there are still the only remaining haenyeo here,” she continued. “That’s why before Udo Island was developed, it was also known as the island of haenyeo.”
"Haenyeo?" Su Yuhang, who grew up inland, had no idea what it meant.
"Haenyeo refers to female fishermen who fish with bare hands without using diving equipment." Li Xiangha gave an accurate explanation, "Before Jeju Island was developed into a tourist attraction, most of the indigenous people here were fishermen and relied on the sea to support themselves."
"They make a living by collecting abalone, conch, sea cucumber, etc. all year round. After Jeju Island was included in the government's development plan, this ancient occupation gradually disappeared."
"I didn't expect you to know so much. I didn't know anything about it before I came here. I only knew that Jeju Island is the most famous tourist attraction in South Korea."
"No...no, are these okay?" Li Xianghe scratched his head with a smile.
The corners of her mouth that unconsciously turned up showed that she was very grateful for Su Yuhang's praise.
It seemed that his preparations were not in vain. Li Xianghe snickered proudly in his heart.
Continuing along the route of the sightseeing bus, the green peak stands not far away. This is the only towering peak in the flat land of Niu Dao - Niutou Peak.
As a scenic spot that was excluded from Sister Li's travel plan, she had no intention of introducing this mountain peak, for fear that if she didn't pay attention, Su Yuhang would have the idea of climbing the mountain.
It is absolutely impossible for me to take the initiative to climb mountains, absolutely!
As if he heard the girl's thoughts, Su Yuhang pointed to the Niutou Peak in front of him.
"There are so many people there, how about... we follow them and go to the top of the mountain to have a look?"
Although it is not Golden Week, there are still many tourists traveling to Jeju Island.
The sightseeing bus stopped at the foot of the mountain, and the tourists who got off the bus carried their travel bags in groups, followed the stone steps, and began to climb the highest peak of Niu Island.
"this……"
Li Xianghe's tone of voice was hesitant, and the corners of his eyes twitched, thinking to himself, are you asking me to choose between life and love?
"Don't you want to go?" Su Yuhang asked curiously.
"No...no, this is the only peak on Niu Island - Niutou Peak. It is one of the must-see attractions here." After saying this, Li Xianghe really wanted to slap himself in the face.
Which pot should not be opened?
Now it's better, the scenic spot that they didn't plan to visit has become a must-see for both of them.
Even if he didn't want to go, he would have to bite the bullet and go.
I just hope that this Niutou Peak is not too high, otherwise I might fall halfway up the mountain.
Li Xianghe shook his travel bag and sighed helplessly in his heart.
After parking the rented bicycles, the two of them climbed up the steps.
As the height rises, the surrounding view gradually broadens. Under the breeze, the reeds growing outside the fence sway.
After traveling for more than twenty minutes, the two arrived at the halfway point of Niutou Peak.
There is a platform for tourists to rest here, with thick stone benches placed vertically and horizontally. Many tourists choose to stop here, but most of them are elderly aunts and uncles.
Although Li Xianghe was panting and his calves were numb, he gritted his teeth and did not sit down shamelessly.
Fatigue is a temporary thing, but face is a lifelong thing. Doesn't sitting down mean that your physical fitness is on the same level as those of the aunts and uncles?
She didn't want to leave a weak impression on Su Yuhang that he was "physically weak" during this trip.
For a young girl like her, these four words are simply the greatest insult.
But Su Yuhang didn't care about this at all. He directly chose a stone chair near the fence and waved to Li Xianghe.
Facing Su Yuhang's invitation, she had no choice but to refuse. She jogged over a few steps, put her travel bag aside, leaned against the back of her chair and sighed.
Sure enough, the seat is the most needed thing when climbing mountains.
The short period of relaxation left the girl filled with emotions.
“This is indeed the best location.”
Su Yuhang turned his face sideways and said softly.
Through the protective fence next to it, you can see the beach in the distance, the deep blue sea, and the red and white twin lighthouses floating on the sea. It is like admiring a magnificent picture scroll, all the scenery is completely presented before your eyes.
"If we reach the top, we can take in the entire Niu Dao." Li Xianghe couldn't help but answer.
As the only peak on the entire outlying island, Niutou Peak stands out among the relatively gentle Niu Dao.
Standing on the observation deck at the top of the peak, you can not only have an unobstructed view of Udo Island, but also look across the sea from Seongsan Ilchulbong Peak in Jeju Island.
After resting for a while, the two regained their strength and started heading towards the top of the mountain.
Before leaving, Li Xianghe took several photos with the camera in his hand.
She said she was taking pictures of scenery, but she took advantage of Su Yuhang's inattention and took several photos of young people leaving the country. Although they were all from behind, she regarded them as treasures.
After returning to the hotel, set these photos as your mobile phone wallpaper.
…………
"Finally... finally here." Li Xianghe gasped, holding on to the fence on the side, and stepped onto the wide platform of the observation deck with difficulty.
This long mountain road made her feel extremely tortured. If it weren't for Su Yuhang's company, she wouldn't have been able to endure it.
It seems that after this trip, I still need to strengthen my physical exercise. Otherwise, my next trip... will be particularly embarrassing.
"Li Xianghe, come here quickly. There are people here. If you go slower, you won't be able to get a good viewing position." Su Yuhang, who was walking in front, took the initiative to grab the girl's slender wrist and trotted towards the edge of the viewing platform.
The soft and warm touch spreads along the wrist to the whole body, and the numbness like electric shock makes the girl feel itchy and ready to move, as if there are countless deer raising their antlers and jumping around.
‘Dong dong dong’
The strong heartbeat was like a drum beating hard at that moment, and every beat was clearly audible.
At that moment, Li Xianghe felt that the fatigue along the way had completely disappeared. Even if she was asked to climb ten more times, she would not frown.
This...benefit came too suddenly, didn't it? After so long, I actually succeeded in holding hands with Su Yuhang without knowing it?
She sighed and cried with joy.
Although it was only the contact between the wrist and the palm, Li Xianghe was still satisfied and felt like a spring breeze.
It seems...physical activities like mountain climbing are not without merit.
The girl laughed foolishly in her heart.
Suddenly, her view of Niutou Peak, which had been excluded from her travel plan, changed drastically.
