Best time to travel to South Korea

Discover the ideal time to visit South Korea

The best time to visit South Korea is during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to November) months.

In spring, the country is adorned with cherry blossoms and various other flowers. Seoul, the capital city, is particularly beautiful during this time, with temperatures ranging from 10° to 20°.

Popular spots like Gyeongbokgung Palace and Namsan Seoul Tower offer stunning views amidst blooming flowers. Jeju Island is another must-visit location in spring, known for its picturesque landscapes and the Seongsan Ilchulbong Peak.

Autumn is equally enchanting, with temperatures ranging from 10° to 20°. The foliage turns vibrant shades of red, orange, and yellow, making places like Nami Island and Seoraksan National Park incredibly scenic. The crisp, cool air is perfect for hiking and outdoor activities.

In Seoul, you can enjoy the autumn leaves at Bukchon Hanok Village and Changdeokgung Palace.

While summer (July to August) is hot and humid, with temperatures often exceeding 30°, it’s a great time for beach lovers. Busan’s Haeundae Beach and Jeju’s Hamdeok Beach are popular destinations. However, be prepared for occasional rainfall.

Winter (December to February) is cold, with temperatures dropping to 0° or lower. If you enjoy winter sports, the ski resorts in Pyeongchang and Gangwon Province are ideal.

Overall, spring and autumn offer the most pleasant weather and picturesque landscapes, making them the best times to explore South Korea.
