Jirisan Nogodan Pink Hairy Azalea Blooming... Peak from the 13th

Jirisan's Representative Alpine Zone, Nogodan's Pink Hairy Azalea Shows Off Its Beauty

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] The pink hairy azaleas at the summit of Nogodan, the high mountain zone of Jirisan, have begun to bloom.

The Jirisan National Park Jeonnam Office announced on the 11th that the pink hairy azaleas have started blooming around the 1,507m-high summit of Nogodan.

The blooming of the hairy azalea colonies, which began in early May, is expected to reach its peak from the 13th to the 17th.

Hairy azalea is a subspecies of azalea both taxonomically and in appearance, but unlike the commonly seen azaleas, it is a species limited to high-altitude areas such as Jirisan, Seoraksan, and Hallasan, and is called hairy azalea because its leaves have hairs.
