First Bloom A detour from Nagan-eupseong took us to the small, remote temple of Geumdunsa (금둔사) in Suncheon. It was here that I set my eyes on my very first bloom of the year! It was still in the chill of winter, but this blossom had already bloomed and quite a few other buds had already appeared. The temple was deserted except for a couple of photographers snapping away at the first blossoms of the year with their micro lenses. I consider myself lucky to have witnessed this beautiful early spring sight.
