Poetic Transitions: The Seasonal Symphony of Nami Island

Day 1: Cultural Moments in Seoul In the early morning, I walked into Bukchon Hanok Village, where the sound of leisurely footsteps echoed through the alleys. The village preserves the architectural style of the Joseon Dynasty, creating a harmonious contrast with the modern city. In the afternoon, I visited Insadong, holding a cup of traditional Korean tea and feeling the slow passage of time. In the evening, I headed to Cheonggyecheon, where the stream adorned with night lights resembled a galaxy scattered on earth, offering a touch of tranquility and romance amidst the bustling city. Day 2: The Natural Symphony of Nami Island The next day, I took a trip to Nami Island. This crescent-shaped island is renowned for its romance and seasonal beauty. In the early morning, I strolled along the Ginkgo Tree Lane, where golden leaves carpeted the ground, making it feel like walking on an autumn tapestry. Then, I passed through the Maple Tree Tunnel, with layers of red leaves creating a poetic and picturesque scene, as if stepping into a fairy tale. The island also features filming locations for Korean dramas, especially the iconic tree-lined paths where one can almost hear the whispers and laughter of the characters. In the afternoon, I took a break at a lakeside café, enjoying the shimmering lake and the swaying shadows of the trees. Every corner of Nami Island composes a seasonal symphony in the most natural way, making travelers linger endlessly.
