During the months of April and May, the 17,000 Azalea bushes are in full bloom and offer a breathtaking spectacle to the thousands of people who visit from all over the world for the Azalea Festival, held at the 1300 year old Buddhist temple. Pink, purple, orange and white flowers covering the surrounding hills create a stunning image of pure natural beauty.
