Fall in Purple on Purple Island, Where Purple Flowers Bloom All Four Seasons

[Sinan=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Jae-kyung] Sinan-gun, Jeollanam-do, will hold the Purple Island Willow Verbena Flower Festival throughout September under the theme "Into the Enchanting Scent of Purple" at Purple Island, which has been selected as the UNWTO (United Nations World Tourism Organization) World's Best Tourism Village and a Star of Korean Tourism.

Willow verbena is a perennial herb of the Verbenaceae family that blooms purple flowers from spring to autumn. Due to its long blooming period, it is a perfect plant for Purple Island. Along the coastal walking trails, tens of millions of flowers?the largest scale in the nation?bloom throughout Purple Island, enchanting tourists touring the island with a captivating purple flower path and the early autumn atmosphere.

Purple Island has established large-scale flower complexes where purple flowers bloom seasonally. In spring, lavender flowers bloom brilliantly; in summer, willow verbena flowers; and in autumn, a 3,300㎡ area of aster chrysanthemums awaits visitors with a purple spectacle called "Ah~Star!".

Park Woo-ryang, the governor of Sinan-gun, said, "I hope that every tourist visiting Purple Island will keep it as a healing island where they can be deeply moved and comforted by the exquisite marine scenery of the mudflats and the dreamy purple spectacle." He also stated plans to actively attract many domestic and international tourists by taking advantage of the "2022?2023 Jeonnam Year of Visit."
