Flower Gift Korea visited The Garden of Morning Calm this Month (July)
July is the month of the hydrangea at The Garden of Morning Calm, which is a large garden with flowers and flower exhibits located in Gapyeong, Gyeongi-do, South Korea. It is a great place to visit and Flower Gift Korea was there just to hang out and find some time to just be at peace.
We went to this garden on a date, Brandy and I. So, we decided to take some photos and make a short video of what you can expect to see if you visit in July/August. Here is a 1 minute and 34 second video of our visit to the garden:
As mentioned, we went when the hydrangea festival was taking place. So, there is an area with a lot of hydrangea flowers. Also, there are places where you can take pictures. Honestly, there weren’t that many hydrangea exhibits, but it was still nice to see the beautiful hydrangea flowers in this Korean garden.
Here are more beautiful hydrangeas. There were many kinds of hydrangeas there, and most of the hydrangeas I saw are sold at the various flower markets in Korea.
Here are some potted hydrangea plants. There is some information about the particular hydrangea flower in the pot, but it is only written in Korean.
Some more hydrangeas. Most of the exhibits had a bench nearby.
Here is the bonsai garden, which was a little small. But, it was cool to see.
The best thing about our visit was just walking around and enjoying the scenery.
This place is called The Garden of Morning Calm for a reason.
I personally think think exhibits with a stream or a pond were the best. The sound of the water flowing is really peaceful.
It’s definitely a great place to visit. Go alone or with some friends. You’ll definitely be able to calm your spirit down and find some peace.
