I actually saw full blooming cherry blossoms in Seoul Children's Grand Park and Seoraksan Mountain. I heard that there are larger cherry blossoms in Yeonglang Lake, so I decided to come to the lake to have a look. There are The trail around the lake is suitable for walking and cycling. It is really good to enjoy the beautiful lake view along the trail around the lake!
Attractions
This time, I took bus No. 7 from Mount Seorak and got off at the bus stop near Yonglang Lake, and then walked for about 15 minutes to the entrance of Yonglang Lake.
There is a "Story Bike" (Story Bike) rental shop near the entrance, where you can rent bicycles to circle the lake! It's a pity that all the bicycles were borrowed that day. There are shop assistants who can speak a little Chinese in the store, and the communication is not bad.
Bicycle rental price list, I chatted with the boss, if you want to rent an electric car, you need to provide a driver's license!
In the parking lot of the bike shop, the boss said that these bikes are under maintenance and cannot be rented. There are public toilets nearby.
The map of Yonglang Lake Walking Trail, besides the cherry blossoms, the lake view is also great.
The lake view of Yonglang Lake makes people feel calm.
It should be interesting to be able to pedal a bicycle romantically among the cherry blossoms!
The range of cherry trees is roughly L-shaped along the lake.

In fact, it was a bit unexpected, because I met a lot of people having picnics under the cherry trees in Seoul Children's Grand Park. I didn't see any tourists at Yonglang Lake in Sokcho, and there were no people sitting under the trees for picnics. There were not many people. It's quite comfortable, and it's much easier to take pictures, which is not bad.
A lot of petals have already fallen, and it should be more beautiful if you come a day or two earlier.
The rich man thinks this is a good cherry blossom viewing spot, and recommends it to all friends.
