But still the cities are decorated quite interesting, in Daegu there were several light shows and fireworks, and if you want to experience a fantasy story mood - then definitely E World park would be the place! #yearofrabbit #newyearadventure

Beautiful Cherry Blossom of E-World at Night

#cherryblossom2024 I'm on a cherry blossom trip right now. I got off at Dongdaegu Station on April 4th and saw Daegu E-World cherry blossoms, a cherry blossom attraction in Daegu, yesterday! The cherry blossoms in E-World in Daegu are raining because of the wind. I think this week's Daegu cherry blossom will be the ending. Daegu said that the cherry blossoms bloom and lose quickly, but it seems to be falling faster than other places. Daegu E-World needs to get a free pass when entering, but if you only see the cherry blossoms in E-World in Daegu, you can see them without getting a free pass. It will be hard to see the cherry blossoms in full bloom, but wouldn't it be possible to see the cherry blossom rain for two to three days?

Autumn Foliage at Apsan Park

Sitting within the vicinity of South Daegu, Apsan Mountail offers a spectacular view of of autumn foliage from the mountain foot to the top of the mountain. It is around 600m tall in altitude and there are many trails for hikers to hike to the top of the mountain. Alternatively, one can also take the Apsan cable car to the mountain top, just that one has to walk around 30 minutes before reaching to the cable car foot. There is a cafe and an observatory for visitors to have a bird eye view of Daegu metropolitan area, and the night view is also spectacular. There is a huge rabbit structure located by the observatory. #celebratewithtrip #tripblazers

A Waterfall of Pouring Weeping Cherry Blossoms.

I visited Apsan Laundry Park, a hot spot for weeping cherry blossoms on SNS. The drooping weeping cherry blossoms are so beautiful, and the king cherry blossoms are also in bloom. It's a place where you can enjoy a variety of cherry blossom views. I recommend visiting early in the morning on weekends to avoid the long lines. 📍Apsan Laundry Park 1501-2, Daemyeong-dong, Nam-gu, Daegu

Cherry blossom view, Gangsimoksam - the best meat restaurant in Daegu 🌸👍

I went to a famous restaurant known for its front mountain cherry blossoms 🥩🥩 It is also famous for its cherry blossom view in the spring, and the quality of the meat and food is naturally delicious. ✅The meat taste here is really amazing 💓🥩 Not only the meat, but also the fried rice and ramen were very delicious. Especially the fried rice, I really want to go back and eat it again. It keeps pulling my visual and olfactory senses 🥹 ✅It is recommended to come early because there is a lot of waiting and it is difficult to get a middle seat.👍 I went there on March 26th, and the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, so the taste of the meat while enjoying the cherry blossom view was even better. ✅It opens at 12:00 and closes at 24:00. The break time is from 15:00 to 16:00. I arrived before 12 o'clock.⏰🥹 ✅The parking lot is a paid parking lot 😂 Or you can use the parking lot of the closed cafe across the street.😃 ✅Many photos are taken at the entrance of the store. Take a lifetime shot with the store and cherry blossom tree in the background 📸 #DaeguTravel #HotSpot #FoodTour #CityTravel #DateCourse #InstagrammableSpot

Apsan Mountain

what a beautiful sight

where dreams come true 🌟💭

#seoul A laid back and spacious park with great vibes. Scenic view of the Hangang River, with boats passing by and seagulls gathering around. Nice place to spend evening time with cool breeze. Picnic mat and table rental available nearby and plenty of eateries are present around. You can also rent a bike for 3000 won for an hour and take a ride. If you like to walk, it is a place to visit. As it has good walking track along the river. You can see amazing sky colours at sunset which will be definitely refreshing. This is literally one of the highlights of my trip to Seoul #korea #vacation #park #river #picnic

Hangang Park

#fallingforfall An urban park along the Han River. There are a few Hangang Parks alongside the river and the one we had gone to is the Yeouido Hangang Park, which is near the Yeouinaru station. Nice relaxing park to chill out and relax. There are quite a lot of locals / families around the park picnicking, walking, and cycling, while enjoying the riverside / fall foliage views. The trees at Yeouido Hangang Park had started to change colours when we were there, and should be even more beautiful when it reaches its peak. Yeouido Hangang Park is also where you can book and collect the tickets, as well as board the ferry for the Eland Cruise. The park is also near 63 Square where there's an Observatory, art museum & aquarium.

🇰🇷 Beautiful lights illumination

After sunset, you will be able to view the night illumination just right outside E-land cruise terminal. There will also be buskers and stages are set up too. If you are a pair of lovebirds, you will definitely love the illuminated love signages. It will look very nice on photos so remember to bring your camera/phones. Towards the makeshift stage, there is also more illumination. During Christmas, you can spot many Christmas displays too. The Hangang river area is really a nice place to relax and enjoy the breeze. Have a seoul-prise in South Korea. #bucketlistreboot #southkorea #seoul #liveyourdreams #takethattrip

🇰🇷 Hangang river food market

Be sure to come by this area to enjoy the food stalls and take photos with “I.SEOUL.U” signage by the Hangang river. It is just right outside Yeouinaru station Exit 2. If you want to have a picnic and do not have the necessary then you can buy from the stalls here. You can buy everything and have a picnic at Hangang river too. This is an open space and you can choose any spot you like. It could be dark after sunset, so you can also buy the battery-operated LED lamps too. It is cute and comes in many shapes. Have a seoul-prise in South Korea. #bucketlistreboot #southkorea #seoul #liveyourdreams #takethattrip

Taxonomically, it belongs to the dicotypic plant of the genus Plant, mainly distributed from tropical to temperate regions. In Korea, oak trees, which are collectively called oak trees, oak trees, oak trees, oak trees, oak trees, and pony trees, are representative broad-leaved trees. The garden is planted with nurijang trees, zelkova trees, maple trees, ash trees, mountain cherry trees, oak trees, birch trees, red pear trees, etc.

Autumn Festival Daegu Arboretum

#falltrip Daegu's Representative Autumn Festival Daegu Arboretum Chrysanthemum Festival To welcome the 2023 Daegu Garden Expo, this chrysanthemum festival is being held in three places, including Daegu Arboretum Dongdaegu Station! After 4 o'clock, I recommend looking around in the morning or right after lunch as the sun goes down. This year's Daegu Arboretum Chrysanthemum Exhibition has been somewhat reduced, but there is no place like this to feel the autumn atmosphere The Chrysanthemum Exhibition features many small countries along with the landscape of the arboretum, and the exhibition runs from the entrance to the fountain square, so it's good to see autumn leaves The 2023 Daegu Arboretum Chrysanthemum Exhibition runs until November 12th, so this weekend! How about enjoying a trip to Daegu with autumn leaves and autumn flowers?

Strolling through the Ximen Market, there are many different Korean style small jewelry shops. Exquisite coin purses, small sachets, and a lot of gadgets that are not famous. You can buy small things that you can't buy anywhere else. I heard that hanbok is worn in important festivals in Korea, especially when you are married, so when new people prepare for the wedding, they will also be prepared for hanbok. If you are tickle in your heart and want to try it on, you can. And the Korean aunt in the market will be very enthusiastic to help you try on.

It is said that the Daegu Ximen Market is very promising. It is known as the Three Great Markets of the Joseon Dynasty together with the Pyongyang Market and the Riverview Market. It is also the oldest traditional market in Daegu, due to its location in Daegu City. On the west side, it is named Ximen Market. Maybe you have already visited Seoul's Gwangjang Market, Sapporo Market, Lusongjin Aquatic Market, etc. Of course, you can't miss the very distinctive Daegu Ximen Market. This is a market with history, culture, food and fun. If you happen to have a trip in Daegu, of course you have to stop by.

There are many traditional markets in South Korea that are worth visiting. These places are an important part of the history and culture of Korea. They have changed over the years and adapted to the development of the times, and they have continued to renew their vitality. It is different from the scenery of metropolitan shopping, but it has the most simple and close to life and the truest embodiment of the most authentic human and life culture. In cultural monuments, you can understand the past of a city through historical development; and in the local traditional market, you can understand the past of a city through the development of humanities. The West Gate Market in Daegu is such a place.
