Jeju Cherry Blossoms: Encounter the Spring Romance at 33° North Latitude

Jeju Island marks the first stop of South Korea's cherry blossom season. From late March to early April, tens of thousands of cherry trees bloom, creating a stunning sea of flowers. The Jeonnong-ro Cherry Blossom Tunnel, a 1.7-kilometer romantic corridor, transforms into a fairytale world of falling cherry blossom petals during the day, and becomes even more magical at night with illuminated lights. On the Halla Mountain Gwaneumsa route, century-old mountain cherry trees line the path, and at an altitude of 800 meters, cherry blossoms amidst misty clouds and volcanic stone walls form a breathtaking composition. In early April, wild mountain cherries and Jeju's unique King Cherry blossoms bloom simultaneously, offering a chance to witness the rare "cherry blossom snow" phenomenon. Visitors can also join local "Night Cherry Blossom Tea Parties," stay at seaside guesthouses in Aewol-eup, and wake up to cherry blossoms drifting into their rooms. A trip to experience Jeju's cherry blossoms promises unforgettable springtime memories.
