If you’re looking for a memorable spring holiday, why not head to ​South Korea to see the country erupt in gorgeous cherry blossom? As the frigid Korean winter draws to a close towards the end of March, warmer weather in the country’s south sees the first cherry blossoms of spring bloom majestically in Jeju Island. As the warmth moves north, the blooms spread from Busan up towards Seoul and Incheon. Generally speaking, the safest bet to guarantee good cherry blossom viewing is to be in ​South Korea in late March and early April.
