Korea has long been famous for its romantic images that make people's hearts flutter. Here, there is a dreamy winter with love songs and white snow; a charming autumn with yellow and red leaves covering everywhere; a vibrant spring with cherry blossoms blooming brilliantly.
This year, cherry blossoms are expected to bloom earlier than usual due to global warming, so the special cherry blossom festivals in 2024 will also take place earlier. You can enjoy the flowers, take romantic photos, and participate in the cultural and culinary festival with the most anticipated flower season of the year in Korea.
