Spring is almost here and this expat wife has found some Korea Spring Flower Festivals to visit. Included in these festivals are the best places to see the Cherry Blossoms. Hopefully the blooming of theses blossoms occur at the time during Korea Spring Flower Festivals.
The weather is starting to warm up and it’s time for a road trip with the family. Go out and enjoy the lovely spring air.
Some festivals are only an hour away and worth a visit. A must see is the famous and favorite Jinhae Geonghwa Station Cherry Blossom Row.
