Overview

After the last cold snap of the Spring goes away and April arrives, cherry blossoms start to bloom on a 4km-long road in Hwagae which is located between two provinces, Jeolla-do and Gyeongsang-do. This famous road called ‘Shimni Beotkkot’ which means ‘4km of cherry blossoms, is also referred to as the ‘Wedding Road’ because there is an old legend saying that a couple who loves each other can live happily together for the rest of their lives when they walk this road holding hands. And many couples around the country visit Hadong to walk this romantic road. The cherry blossoms that bloom like white snowflakes also decorate a 25km-long road referred to as ‘Hwagaedongcheon’ which means ‘flower-blooming place that is touching the sky’ and holds various colourful cultural events.

Gwangyang Maehwa Village
  • 1h
In 1965, Hong Ssang Ri (shown below) began to cultivate 2000 plum trees in the countryside of Gyeongnam Province. Maesil-Cheong is the Korean word for plum extract syrup. It can be used for cooking and direct consumption. Hong Ssang Ri's Maesil-Cheong is made with 100% Korean-grown plums. The fresh plums are harvested and covered with an oligosaccharide. It's then aged in traditional onggi jars for six months. The result is a delightfully tart and sweet extract. Many home cooks use Maesil-Cheong as a substitute for sugar in Korean cooking. That's because it's sweet like sugar but much healthier - packed with vitamins, antioxidants, and aids in digestion. Some people drop a few spoonfuls in water and drink it as iced plum tea.
