#WowKorea
It's the time again, the cold winter finishing, winds starting to thaw, birds are chirping and flowers starting to bloom.
If you are in Korea, it's no doubt that you see the immersion of flowers with white and pink colors on the cheery trees. Once they bloom its really hard to go more than few steps without watching the dazzling displays of colors from the many cheery trees scattered around the countryside.

If you can’t get enough of the fluffy pink flowers, then Yeouido is the place for you. In Korea, the biggest spring festival event is at Yeouido Spring Flower Festival in Seoul and the Jinhae Cheery Blossom Festival. Specially the night view. For 2015, Spring Flower Festival will be happening on the island in Seoul’s city center. While it may not be the most peaceful place in the city for a stroll under a canopy of cherry blossoms, it’s hard to deny that beauty of the trees flanking the Han River and the National Assembly building.

Yeouido; however, the canopy of cherry blossoms extends for most of the circumference of the island, meaning that a stroll along the southern shores of Yeouido is sure to provide more relaxation.The festival will feature a lot of flowers, as well as musical performances and many street vendors selling food. While not the most cultural of Korea’s festivals, it’s certainly one of the prettiest.
If you take the subway to Yeouido Station (Line 5 or 9), take a stroll in Yeouido Park (여의도공원)itself. If you have time, having a leisurely picnic in the park is not a bad idea. After that, enjoy the walk beneath big shady trees filled with spring flowers along Yeouiseo-ro (여의서로) that runs along the Han River Park (한강공원). The first subway station that you will hit along the Han River is Yeouinaru Station (Line 5). From Yeouido station exit, taking a 8-min walk parallel to the Olympic Way, it will bring you to the Yeouido Park. The entrance of Yeouido Park is very prominent, with its huge Hangeul characters which you will not miss.
