Autumn Soul Day 2 – Jeju Island – Teddy Bear Museum

After Cheonjeyeon Falls, we took a taxi to Teddy Bear Museum ( Only to find out that Teddy Bear Museum is just 5 minutes walk away from Cheonjeyeon Falls ).

The entrance fees to Teddy Museum for an adult is KRW7,000 ( Approx RM20 / USD6.50 ).

The Teddy Bear Museum lives up to its name, boasting quite an impressive variety that have been loved for more than a hundred years the world over. Inside the two galleries you can view the teddy bears from various countries.

The gallery is grouped into three sections: the History Hall, the Art Hall and the Project Exhibition Hall.

The toy “Teddy bear” came after Theodore Roosevelt’s name. In November 1902 Theodore ‘Teddy’ Roosevelt, 26th President of the United States, was hunting in Mississippi.

The President failed to make a kill so his hosts caught and tethered a bear, presenting it to the President as a sitting target. Naturally the President refused, uttering the immortal words, ‘Spare the bear! I will not shoot a tethered animal.’
