It is a rural community surrounded by mountains, with small businesses and shops everywhere, along with farms and small refineries.
Jindo is famous for the breed of dog that is native to the island, also called Jindo. There is a history of the breed which the Koreans are apparently proud of, and they do not like to export them.
Unfortunately, they aren't as kind as we would expect to these animals. There are a lot of strays and I have seen dogs locked inside dog houses with no food, water or means to relieve themselves for days at a time.
