THE PARK BESIDE YEOJWACHEON STREAM - PART TWO

[CONTINUATION OF PART ONE]

24th MARCH 2019 ~ Changwon Naesumyon a.k.a NFRDI Eco Park is the place where one could just walk, sit and spend hours admiring the untouched beauty of mother earth. I was there a bit too early before the sakura got to bloom during its peak season. I bet it would look spectacular when the park would be covered bi the pink buds of the flowers. Guess I have to make a return trip some other time.

This place also looks awesome when autumn arrives and the leaves turn to their brown, red, orange and brown hues.

I spent longer time there without realizing

 Even though it was not in the plan, it was worth every second to be there. This reminds me of a poem once taught to my students in school.

Leisure

W. H. DAVIES

WHAT is this life if, full of care,

We have no time to stand and stare?—

No time to stand beneath the boughs,

And stare as long as sheep and cows:

No time to see, when woods we pass,

Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass:

No time to see, in broad daylight,

Streams full of stars, like skies at night:

No time to turn at Beauty's glance,

And watch her feet, how they can dance:

No time to wait till her mouth can

Enrich that smile her eyes began?

A poor life this if, full of care,

We have no time to stand and stare.

THE PARK BESIDE YEOJWACHEON STREAM - PART ONE

24th MARCH 2019 ~ I came across this park while walking along the stream. Situated right across the street, it was surprising that this place was not promoted as a must visit spot in any travel websites that I had surfed before. It was not in my itinerary list but I was always curious to find out what was there inside.

It was a huge park with a lake in the middle. The place was filled with trees which were mostly sakura I think. This place must have looked awesome when sakura was in full bloom. Another site which required visitors to continuously walk to enjoy nature at its best.

From my internet search, the name of the park could either be Changwon Naesumyon or NFRDI Eco Park. And I am still not sure of it as I just compared the photos on the web with what I had seen before. So if anyone has any information about this place, please provide me with the real fact.

More photos of the park in the upcoming post.

OBSERVING THE PHENOMENAL SAKURA BLOOM AT YEOJWACHEON STREAM - PART 2

[CONTINUATION OF PART ONE]

24TH MARCH 2019 ~ I never expected the stream could be that long. For a solo traveler like me, I could spend as much time as I wanted here. There was no rush at all. When I got tired of walking, then I sat down on the benches by the sidewalk and observed people.

I could see the excitement on the faces of the visitors as they admired the blooming buds of sakura. They would not miss the chance of taking photos under the canopy of flowers with the pink hues in the background.

The workers were working hard installing lights that would be lit up later in the evening. Next time if I were to come back to Jinhae, I definitely have to go and see the flowers at night.

Here is a video of me walking under the canopy of pink sakura blooms. Hopefully u will get a better idea of how it was like to be there.

The sakura adventure did not stop here. There will be more sakura at other places in Jinhae for you to see later.
