Galdu Harbor Breakwater Lighthouse (갈두항방파제등대) - Ttangkkeut, Korea - Solar Power on Waymarking.com

---

This picturesque harbor is protected by a breakwater and this unusual lighthouse based on the design of the Eiffel Tower. Many ferries leave from this pier and the passageway into the harbor protects many small fishing boats.

The small harbor town attracts many tourists because it is known as Land's End, the most southern point on the Korean peninsula. There are trails out to the tip of this cape and a large observation tower perched on the peak overlooking the islands to the south. The tower can also be accessed by a special monorail.
