Jinhae naval port festival is held the 54th this year. It means cherry blossom festival these days, but it was not that kind of festival in 1952. It was the festival for admiral Yi Sun-shin at first. Now 50 events are held every part of the downtown during the festival from Yi Sun-shin memorial ceremony, essay contest and photo exhibition. I headed to Yeojwacheon right after having a meal in the train. Okay, here we go!

I could see cherry blossoms after arriving at Jinhae Yeojwa-dong. Jinhae would be the most famous city for cherry blossom festival in Korea. It is so famous that hundreds of tourists visit here in every spring. I visited Jinhae this year again, and I found more foreign tourists than last year. They were more than Korean tourists around Yeojwacheon Romance Bridge.

I recommend you use public transportation during the festival. But if you drive your own car, you'd better park a car in Military Staff College. Since it was moved to other place, the site has been used for a parking lot. The cherry blossom tunnel here is so impressive, too.

Even though it is on festival, it is not crowded. It is because it is not a tourist spot. This white spring flower is so beautiful. You can fully enjoy spring while getting flower rain. Why don't you enjoy this?

Young is good. Female high school students came to take a picture. Four friends took funny poses. They were so cute.

You would look back the way you come if the road is so beautiful. I turned back, and four girls still took various poses. Spring is short. Girls, enjoy the moment!

Jinhae has many beautiful cherry blossom spots. All places in the city like Jang Bok-san park, Anmin road, the Naval Academy, admiralty port, Yeojwacheon, Jehwangsan Park, Naesoomyeon ecology park and Gyeonghwa Station are full of white flowers. In particular, inaccessible places like the naval forces are open to the public during the festival period.

“Romance Bridge” is the most famous great cherry blossom place in Jinhae. Kim Jae-won and Kim Ha-neul firstly met in the place in MBC TV drama “Romance”. After the drama was broadcasted, the bridge was named and more people visited there. But Yeojwacheon is a beautiful place even without the name.

A brook is flowing in the middle of the bridge, and rape blossoms are full around there. It is a real spring. Floral leaves fall on the water, and are flew away. It is so beautiful.

Do you understand why this place has been so loved by couples? Small wooden bridges are built in every 100 meters of the brook, and all of them have different sceneries. Lighting is turn on at night, so don't miss it. The brook is about four kilometers. But the cherry blossom road is only 1.5 kilometers. It is a good distance to take a walk.

The floral leaves of powder pink cherry blossoms have been fallen even by a little rain and wind. Fallen floral leaves on the water of Yeojwacheon look amazing.

Starlight is twinkling in some parts, and bicycles are hanging in other parts. All sculptures are turn on light at night, so the night view would be better for you. You even cannot see the sky in the tunnel, but the scenery is awesome. It felt so magnificent.

A loaf of bread is better than the song of many birds. All food stands are crowded with many people. They are selling Chicken Skewers, ice cream, fried ice cream, coffee and beverage. You might be so hungry after walking for 1.5 kilometers, huh?
The cherry blossom tunnel around Yeojwacheon is the most beautiful flower tunnel that I have ever seen. My heart is fluttering with white flowers that cover the sky. It was raining for a while, and the floral leaves were fallen on the water and flew away. I am sure that everyone likes this place. You would probably not miss here during the trip to Jinhae, but you should visit when it is full of flowers. It would be so sweet. :-) I saw the night view, too. I will show you the pictures next time.
