The most beautiful autumn colours of Korea lie in the mountains.
October 31, 2024
Autumn, the season of colourful leaves, has come. In most countries, people usually enjoy autumn colours in the woods or parks, but in Korea, it is a bit different.
The place with the most beautiful scenery of autumn in Korea is the mountains. Seventy percent of the Korean territory – South Korea alone - is mountains, so wherever you go, you can easily find mountains either large or small everywhere, and those particularly famous for their beautiful autumn colours are designated as national parks. Besides, as old temples are located mostly in the mountains - many of them date back to several hundreds or even more than a thousand years, the natural scenery combined with those old temples is so attractive that many Koreans go to the mountains just to enjoy the wonderful autumn colours around temples without hiking.
The attached table shows some representative mountains famous for autumn scenery by region. There are 23 national parks in Korea, and they are all accessible by express bus from Seoul. You can select your favourite destinations at the Korean national park official homepage www.knps.or.kr, and then easily book express bus tickets at the express bus reservation website www.kobus.co.kr or “Tmoney GO” app, an integrated public transportation reservation application.
’Tmoney GO’ app, in particular, allows you not only to book a ticket, but also to figure out the time required to your desired destination in real time which is possible through the express bus arrival time information system installed in the application with the accurate expected arrival time information as well. This is the result of applying Formax Network’s FX-LBS solution which combines all the know-how such as traffic data analysis, processing and prediction algorithms.
The peak of Korean autumn foliage is from mid-October to mid-November, and if you stay in Korea during this period, we hope you can experience the beautiful Korean fall.
