St. Isidore Farm was born when an Irish priest named McGlinchey (Korean name: Im Pi-je) was appointed in Jeju's Hallim region in 1954 and opened a livestock bank to help the impoverished locals. In 1961, it officially opened a central practice farm to not only educate on the livestock industry but also carry out hog farming, sheep breeding, beef cattle raising and dairy businesses. Today, the farm primarily raises cows and racehorses and produces high-quality organic milk and horses for racing to utilize the profits in various welfare projects. The farmland also presents an exotic scenery as the vast grasslands blend in with modern structures such as Ctesiphon, which symbolizes the history of the farm. The farm also has a cafe that uses milk produced at the farm in addition to a trail and park with religious themes.

It is said that the peak of Hallasan Mountain where Baekrokho Lake now exists was taken off and thrown away, which then became Sanbangsan Mountain. The myth describes how unlike other mountains on Jejudo Island, this mountain does not have a crater. The 5m-high rock cave at the cliff on the southwest side of the mountain was originally called Sanbanggul Cave, but it is called a temple now because it possesses a Buddhist statue.
This is where monk Hye-Il (964~1053) had lived during the Goryeo dynasty (918~1392)
Inside the cave, you can see Marado Island and the Dragon Head Coast. You can also see small ponds being made by the water drops that fall from the ceiling all through the year. The plant zone on a cliff of Sanbangsan Mountain is also designated as a natural monument. It is the only place on Jejudo Island where island boxwoods grow. On the Dragon Head Coast is the Hamel Memorial Monument.
