"Hundreds of visitors were seen strolling along Yunjung-ro on Monday for the annual cherry blossom festival, as the arrival of spring transformed the capital into a sea of pink and white. Footage shows crowds strolling beneath illuminated trees, with families, couples and tourists taking photos under the glowing blossoms that stretch across the popular 1.7-kilometre avenue. "Coming at night is wonderful. The lights are on, and it looks so beautiful. It's also great for taking photos with friends," said a resident. Others described the experience as both nostalgic and visually striking, especially at night when the floral canopy is enhanced by soft lighting. "We come here every year to make memories with our children. It's nice to see them growing up through the photos we take," he added. "It was really amazing. The cherry blossoms were beautiful, out of this world, something you only need to experience. Like, there's no way I can describe it, and you would understand how beautiful it was," added a tourist.

The blooming, recorded annually since 1922, signals the peak of spring tourism in the South Korean capital, drawing crowds eager to experience the iconic display."
