A Regal Spring: Yaezakura Blooms & History at Gyeongsanggamyeong Park

#springitinerary
Step into a living painting at Gyeongsanggamyeong Park，where spring crowns Daegu’s historic heart with breathtaking yaezakura（double-layered cherry blossoms). These opulent pink blooms, heavier and more voluptuous than typical sakura, drape like jewels over the park’s 420-year-old legacy—once the seat of Joseon-era governors. Stroll past Seonhwa-dang(Tangible Cultural Property No. 1), where feudal officials once deliberated under these same blossoms, and let petals rain onto the grass plaza where modern Daegu citizens picnic. By sunset, the fountain’s mist mingles with falling petals, while the lantern-lit Jungcheong-gak residence whispers tales of the past. Here, every petal floats with the weight of history, and every path marries fleeting beauty with enduring heritage.
