Flowers in the Hanok Village




I went to Jeonju's Hanok Village which is a huge tourist complex in the old part of the city, where the old buildings are being restored and there are major places of interest to visit. You can read more about that here.

The spring annuals that I saw planted a few weeks ago are blooming and it is quite a picture. There is also a paper sculture display among the flowers.

Magnolia at the temple


One of the great joys in spring in China and Korea are the blooming of the Magnolia trees. There are different varieties - some all white, some with rose colour on the back of the petals, and others with smaller flowers.

These were blooming at the temple just out of Jeonju.
