#cityplaybook Daegu: Korea’s Secret Spring Sanctuary #aprilblooms #daegu #koreatravel #springinkorea #cherryblossoms #natureescape #cityguide #hiddenkorea #blossomseason #asiatrip Daegu might not be the first place you think of for cherry blossoms—but it should be. This southern city is a springtime gem where tradition, tranquility, and trees in full bloom create a surreal vibe. Start at E-World & 83 Tower, where cherry blossoms wrap around the base of the tower and the view from the top captures the entire city in bloom. It’s stunning by day, but magical when the lights come on at night. Next, wander Duryu Park—Daegu’s biggest and best blossom spot. With lakes, temples, and blossom-lined walking paths, it’s where locals go to relax and picnic under petals. For a quieter escape, visit Gyeongsanggamneung Park, a small but historic site surrounded by dreamy cherry trees and ancient vibes. Or hike up Apsan Mountain for panoramic views of pink hills and city streets. Travel Tip: Daegu’s warmer climate means early blossoms—plan your trip in early April to catch peak petals before Seoul.
