A Walk in a Jeju Village: Fall in Hangyeong-myeon (Part 2)

Previously in 〈A Walk in a Jeju Village, Fall in Hangyeong-myeon! (Part 1)>, if you walked through the forests and oreum volcanic cones and felt the calm autumn season while drinking refreshing tea, (Part 2) will guide you to places that will fatten your body and mind. Small bookstores and book cafés that are perfect for the reading season and bakeries that are pleasant just to see their deliciously baked looks are the next destinations. Regardless of which region you introduce, bookstores and bakeries cannot be left out, as a book you find on a trip may change the direction of your life, and a piece of delicious bread you accidentally tasted may become the reason for your next trip. In fact, even without attaching such a grand reason, wouldn't it be clear that existence itself is a place of happiness? Especially in autumn, like these days, it will be more so.
