O’sulloc Tea Museum (오설록 티뮤지엄) Travel Guide (2026)
O’sulloc Tea Museum is one of Jeju Island’s most popular and photogenic attractions. Opened in 2001 by AmorePacific, it is Korea’s first tea museum, showcasing the history and culture of Korean tea amid vast organic green tea fields on the island’s western side. It blends education, scenic beauty, shopping, and delicious food/drinks, making it ideal for tea lovers, photographers, families, and casual visitors.
Location and Getting There
Address: 15 Sinhwayeoksa-ro, Andeok-myeon, Seogwipo-si, Jeju-do (제주특별자치도 서귀포시 안덕면 신화역사로 15).
It sits next to the expansive Seogwang Tea Plantation and is very close to Innisfree Jeju House (great for photos and skincare shopping).
Transportation options:
By car/taxi: About 50 minutes from Jeju International Airport. Easy parking is available.
By bus: From Jeju City Bus Terminal, take Bus 151 (about 1 hour) and get off at the Osulloc (오설록) stop, then follow signs.
Tours: Many Jeju day tours include it, often paired with nearby spots like Spirited Garden.
Pro tip: Renting a car gives the most flexibility on Jeju, especially for combining with other west/south coast attractions.
Opening Hours and Admission
Hours: Typically 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM (summer may extend to 7:00 PM; winter closes earlier). Open daily, year-round (subject to weather).
Admission: Free for the museum, grounds, and most areas. Some special experiences (like certain tea classes) have fees.
What to See and Do
Green Tea Fields and Walking Trails: Stroll through lush, emerald tea plantations. They are especially stunning in spring (with nearby canola flowers) and offer excellent photo opportunities. The views from the observatory are highlights.
Museum Exhibits: Learn about Korean tea history, production processes, and culture through displays, ancient tea tools, and interactive elements. It’s informative but not overly academic—more experiential.
Tea Tastings and Tea Stone (Teastone): Sample various teas in the cellar or join a tea ceremony class (reservation recommended, especially for groups; around 30,000–35,000 KRW).
Café and Desserts: Indulge in matcha lattes, green tea ice cream, tangerine (Hallabong) flavored treats, cakes, and pastries. The café is spacious with indoor/outdoor seating and beautiful views. Many visitors say the desserts alone are worth the trip.
Gift Shop: Stock up on Jeju-grown teas, tea bags, skincare (green tea products), snacks, and souvenirs. High-quality options at reasonable prices.
Innisfree Jeju House: Just steps away—perfect for more photos, K-beauty shopping, and additional café options.
Recommended visit time: 1.5–3 hours. Go early (around opening) to beat crowds and enjoy better light for photos.
Best Time to Visit
Year-round appeal, but spring (March–May) for vibrant green fields and flowers is magical.
Avoid peak holiday weekends if possible, as it can get busy.
The site remains scenic even in winter.
Practical Tips
Wear comfortable shoes for walking the trails.
Bring cash or a card—most places accept cards, but small purchases are easier with cash.
Combine with nearby attractions: Innisfree Jeju House, Spirited Garden, or west coast drives.
Vegetarian/vegan options exist (matcha items), but confirm ingredients if needed.
No strict dress code, but modest clothing suits the cultural site.
English information is available, though Korean signage dominates. Staff are generally helpful.
Nearby Recommendations
Pair your visit with a Jeju black pork meal, Hallabong picking (seasonal), or coastal drives. The area offers a relaxing contrast to busier spots like Seogwipo or Jungmun.

O’sulloc Tea Museum perfectly captures Jeju’s natural beauty and Korean tea heritage. Whether you seek peaceful walks, Instagram-worthy views, or matcha indulgence, it delivers a memorable, refreshing experience. Plan it into your Jeju itinerary—you won’t regret it!
