Samcheonpo Bridge in Sacheon, Gyeongnam, is currently adorned with multifarious spring flowers that are bound to put your footsteps to a halt. The deep blue sea sprawled along the way will add an air of ever-lasting freshness to your adventure.

When the delicate cherry blossoms wither away after an extravagant entry, out comes the rape flowers that last until mid-May. The flowers that grow up to one's knee-level create a scenery normally found in places like Europe.

  

The bridge was also chosen as Korea's most beautiful road in 2006.

The bridge was initially "just a bridge," linking two areas. But with the rise of nearby tourist attractions like the Hallyeohaesang National Park, throngs of people have begin to visit the spot solely to catch a glimpse of the stunning monument.

  

For a more romantic time at the bridge, drop by Choyang Island, where rape flowers will greet you with their yellow glimmer. The moment you step on the island, you'll feel like you're in a fairy tail. A photo shot here will beat any other background!

Spare some time for a nice walk on the bridge, where the sidewalk is completely separated from the road. With  the broadest view of the endless ocean, you'll feel like you're walking on water.

 

You will notice that the bridges linking each island all have their unique style, too. Samcheonpo Bridge's tall column and Choyang Bridge's red arch offer a new viewpoint.
