Modo, Jindo
Modo Island is a small island in Jindo County, South Jeolla province, South Korea, just off the southwest corner of the Korean peninsula. It is located to the south-east of Jindo Island and is about 1.1 km long and 300 meters wide. The tide-related sea level variations result in a local phenomenon (a "Moses Miracle") when a land pass 2.9 km long and 10–40 meters wide opens for an hour between Modo and Jindo islands. The event occurs approximately twice a year, around April–June.〔(Times sea way opens in 2009 ), Jindo County〕 It had long been celebrated in a local festival called "Jindo's Sea Way", but was largely unknown to the world until 1975, when the French ambassador Pierre Randi described the phenomenon in a French newspaper.〔(The Moses Miracle Of Jindo Island ), 17 July 2010〕〔(Майские фестивали в Чолладо – от "чуда Моисея" до боя быков ) (in Russian)〕 Nowadays, nearly half a million foreign and local tourists attend the event annually. It is accompanied by local festivals which include Ganggangsuwollae (Korean traditional circle dance), Ssitkim-gut (a shaman ritual, consoling the souls of the dead), Deul Norae (traditional farmers songs), Manga (burial ceremony songs), Jindo dog show, Buknori (drum performance) and fireworks.〔(Jindo Mysterious Sea Road ), Jindo County〕〔Martin Robinson, Ray Bartlett, Rob Whyte (''Korea'' ), Lonely Planet, 2007 ISBN 1-74104-558-4, p. 266〕 ==References==
