Seoul experiences very distinct four seasons, spring, summer, autumn and winter. April to May and September to October are the peak travel seasons in Seoul. April to May is during spring and when the cherry blossoms start to bloom, while September to October is autumn and when the green leaves start turning to a fiery red, yellow and orange. Both seasons also offer a much more comfortable temperature for sight-seeing, being not too cold nor too hot. If you are looking for lesser tourists and cheaper airfare, November to March, which is during winter would be best. There will be lesser crowds but also slightly harsher cold weathers.
