Best Time to Visit Korea
Korea is a country with 4 distinct seasons. Spring and fall are decidedly the best times to visit. Spring happens between April and June, and is when you see an abundance of pink cherry blossoms and sunshine. In the fall between September and November, temperatures are mild and rainfall is usually low. It is also a time of festivals which take place around the country. The colours are spectacular, consisting of reds and orange as the leaves change.
Summer can be sticky and muggy, with the country’s highest amount of rain falling in July and August when half the annual rainfall takes place. Winter falls between December and March, it can be a pretty time with the snow adding to the season’s charm. If interested in skiing, then this is the time to visit Korea.
