Best Autumn Foliage Spot in Jinju, Gyeongnam
Metasequoia Road
Recommended Autumn Driving Route
Autumn offers many gifts, and vibrant foliage is certainly one of them. The colorful leaves of fall, when every leaf becomes a flower, make autumn a second spring.
If there's a quintessential autumn tree, it would be the metasequoia, with its leaves turning a beautiful orange hue. This metasequoia forest path is located in Nae-dong, Jinju.
Here, along a national highway adjacent to a car-only road, metasequoia trees stand tall for approximately 1.5km, creating a spectacular scene as they beautifully change color.
The orange tunnel created by the magnificently stretching trees evokes admiration from all who see it.
The Metasequoia Road in Nae-dong is perfect for both a scenic drive and a light stroll. Enjoy a drive and take in the waves of foliage rushing past your window.
There is a walking path in the middle section under the trees, so you can park your car for a while and enjoy a cozy autumn walk.
On the day I visited, the sunlight was dazzling, and even the clouds floating in the autumn sky created a truly wonderful scene.
If you want to escape the complicated city and enjoy a quiet and peaceful drive, the Metasequoia Road in Nae-dong is the answer. Although it's not a short section at approximately 1.5km, you'll feel like you've passed through the visually pleasing foliage tunnel in an instant. I highly recommend it as a driving course near Jinju!
