Younjungro Cherry blossoms

Yeoinaru Line 5 Exit 1.

Walking up the street for a kilometre or more following and swimming against a sea of humanity you will eventually come to a blocked off street area where you can wander under the street lined cherry blossom trees.

Saturday afternoon was quite busy so I would suggest a very early morning visit and escape. I would estimate that there were not a few thousand people but 10's of thousands perhaps even 100,000 people in that area looking at the blossoms. We had to escape by walking for 10 min and getting a taxi as the subway was backed up to an estimated 2 hour or so wait just to get on a train that would probably be packed anyway!

Good thing that Korean taxi's are cheap and comfortable and a good 15 - 20 min ride will cost about 20,000 w so well worth the comfort and avoidance of stress and saving of time!

So here are some photo's:
