Experience a special Korean spring with a day tour from Busan to Gwangyang Maehwa Village and the Gurye Sansuyu Festival.
Enjoy the largest plum blossom festival in Korea, featuring the scenery of Maehwa Village, one of the 'Gwangyang 9 Views'.

During the plum blossom festival, the white flower buds at Maehwa Village and the Gwangyang Cheongmaesil Farm bloom in abundance, creating a magnificent landscape. Plum products are also sold, and various experience activities are available, making it a popular destination for visitors. As spring arrives every March, it is the most beautiful time for the yellow cornelian cherry flower fields, leading the Gurye region to host a series of festival activities themed around these flowers. At the festival, you can not only taste tea, wine, and various dishes made from cornelian cherry flowers but also enjoy performances, experience activities, and fireworks. Nearby attractions, including the Jirisan Hot Springs, are also highly recommended for visitors to relax.
After enjoying the plum blossoms, continue your Gurye tour to witness the spectacular sight of mountains covered in golden cornelian cherry flowers and observe the different forms of the trees. Taste cornelian cherry tea, wine, and snacks at local agricultural market stalls in Gurye, savor the limited-time flavors of spring, witness the harvest prayer ceremony, attend the spring blossom concert, and hang your wishes on the branches of the Korean cornelian cherry trees.
