Sokchonje: (March and September) Confucian shrines and Sungkyunkwan University in Seoul hold this event. Hear traditional court orchestras and watch costumed rituals.

Royal Guard Changing Ceremony: (March to December) is held at the Changdeokgung Palace, Seoul from Tue-Sun every 30 minutes, 10am-1pm. Visitors can experience a re-enactment of Korean military tradition - the changing of the Royal Guards here. This ceremony has been re-enacted since 1996. In traditional costumes, the sentries change the guard at the main gates of Gyeongbokgung, Deoksugung and Changdeokgung Palaces in central Seoul. Palace gate guardsmen end their sentry duty, present arms and parade. The ceremony has become something of a tourist trap, but worth it.

Many flowers bloom during this festival but most renowned are the cherry blossoms that line the streets of Yeouido.
