About Spring Flower Season
From March through May, spring flowers bloom across South Korea. Arboretums across the country will host festivals and show off their stunning gardens. The country is covered with stunning locations to view copious amounts of blooms that will make your Instagram sing.
Famous Spring Flowers in Korea
Famous spring blooms in South Korea include cherry blossoms, pear blossoms, apricot blossoms, tulips, canola, digitalis, lupine, daisies, grape hyacinths, azaleas, magnolia, and forsythia. Of all of these flowers, cherry blossoms and tulip photos are the most coveted by Instagram lovers.
