Seoul City Walk | Autumn is gradually entering its prime, miss it and wait another year

The first time I came to Seoul in the thick of autumn, the streets were dyed with red maple and golden ginkgo everywhere, and any corner could take a blockbuster. I went to Sungkyunkwan University Myeongnyundang and Seoul Forest on November 2nd, and the autumn colors are gradually entering their prime. The best time to enjoy autumn is before mid-November, if you miss it, you have to wait another year! 🍁Sungkyunkwan University Myeongnyundang This historic university is one of the oldest in Korea. The new campus is built on the mountain, and you can overlook the whole view from the top. The path is full of red leaves. Walking in the campus, the strong autumn atmosphere is like a scene in a Korean drama. Myeongnyundang is an ancient building, and the most famous in the campus are several hundred-year-old ginkgo trees, which are interesting with the old buildings. The unique atmosphere makes people feel the charm of traditional culture. 📷To avoid the crowd as much as possible, we arrived early in the morning. There are several popular photo spots in the front and back courtyards, and you often need to queue up. Try to combine yellow leaves 🍂 and buildings for shooting, and some tourists in Korean costumes are also suitable for the lens. Both telephoto and wide-angle lenses can be used, with different styles. 📍Myeongnyun 3-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul Special City 🚇Subway Line 4 Huihwa Station 🕙Autumn opening hours 9:00-17:00 🍁Seoul Forest A large park in the center of Seoul, next to high-rise buildings. Now the autumn leaves have painted the entire park with brilliant colors. There is a large ginkgo forest in the middle, and the Metasequoia Road, Mirror Pond, and Children's Garden are all good for shooting. Even though it's not the weekend, there are still many locals bringing their families to enjoy the autumn, couples, girlfriends, and various pets have become a different scenery in the autumn. There are many delicious restaurants and cafes in the nearby blocks. You can buy some desserts and drinks, bring a picnic mat, and take a break on the ground to experience the leisure time of Seoul people. 📷Bring a telephoto lens to avoid the crowd and capture the exclusive autumn colors. In addition to red leaves, other plants and water reflections can also produce different effects. 📍685 Seongsu 1(il)-ga 1(il)-dong, Seongdong-gu, Seoul 🚇Subway Bundang Line Seoul Forest Station Exit 3

The autumn foliages is exceptionally pretty, especially the 600 year old gingko tree standing in front of the academy. Gingko tree is considered one of the most sacred tree in Korea, as this tree is the least insect infested fauna, which is why it is considered a very pure tree among all, chosen to be planted in front of most Confucius academy. The stone walls beside the academy is also full with maple trees foliages, which adds in more colours to the surroundings making the autumn in the university much more pretty.
