Cherry Blossom Viewing in Seoul This Spring

It's March again, and the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. Tired of going to Japan? Why not visit South Korea next door to capture the beauty of cherry blossoms? 📍 Getting there: Take the subway to each attraction. 🌟 Highlights: ✅ Gyeongbokgung Palace: The largest royal palace in South Korea and the main palace of the last dynasty on the Korean Peninsula. The cherry blossom trees under the red bricks and green tiles present a unique beauty, making it easy for even amateur photographers to take stunning photos. ✅ N Seoul Tower: The N Seoul Tower, often featured in Korean dramas, is a fantastic photo spot! The romantic atmosphere of the N Seoul Tower against the backdrop of cherry blossoms makes it a perfect date spot this spring. ✅ Seoul Forest: Seoul Forest is a multi-functional leisure and entertainment center integrating culture, art, experiential learning, ecology, and wetlands. With cherry blossom petals scattered around, every corner seems to be tinged with pink. ✅ Seokchon Lake: A natural lake adjacent to Lotte World, Seokchon Lake is crowded with visitors during the cherry blossom season. You can take photos of the amusement park castle and cherry blossoms from a distance. ✅ Kyung Hee University Seoul Campus: If you want to take stunning cherry blossom photos, you must visit this campus. With classical teaching buildings as the background, the large swaths of cherry blossoms are particularly brilliant. It is said that many celebrities study here! ✨ Tips: ✅ In addition to Gyeongbokgung Palace, Namsan Hanok Village is also a great place for taking photos. It is recommended that ladies rent Hanboks in advance. Cherry blossoms, ancient walls, Hanboks, and Korean style create a perfect backdrop for stunning photos that will light up your social media. ✅ If you don't want to go to the crowded N Seoul Tower, you can start your stroll from the Namsan Library. The entire walking path is lined with cherry blossoms. This is the area where cherry blossoms bloom the latest in Seoul, so if you arrive too late, you might miss them. ✅ Seoul Forest is just a few steps away from the famous entertainment company SM Entertainment, so you can stop by and try to spot your favorite K-pop idols. Seongsu-dong, known as the Brooklyn of Korea, is also nearby. ✅ Seokchon Lake holds a cherry blossom festival every year, featuring large-scale performances, traditional cultural performances, and concerts. This is a great opportunity to learn more about Korean culture. ✅ Another hidden gem for cherry blossom viewing is the Hwarangdae Subway Park. The park retains abandoned railways and small trains, which, adorned with cherry blossoms, create a romantic scene straight out of a Korean drama.
