What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors rave about the Yangjae Flower Market for its incredible selection of fresh flowers and diverse plants at wholesale prices. The sheer volume and beauty are a major draw, making it a must-visit for flower and plant lovers. However, some note that it can get very crowded, especially on weekends, and bringing cash is highly recommended.
"We got 2 bunches of flowers for 25,000. The one bundle was 15,000 and one was 10,000.
Much cheaper than a flower store!"

"Like most reviewers mentioned, this place is huge.
But not many people mentioned is that each stall has limited plants.
Warning to people who can't speak Korean. There's no price tag to the plants. Only name of the plant I guess.
Majority of the stall looks empty and plants dnt really look healthy to us.
Overall, just an experience to see Seoul flower market"
Pi Er
"Simply awesome. My boyfriend romantically took me to the largest flower market in Korea (I am flower/plant girl). It is huge and divided into a plant/tree section and a fresh cut flower section. The plant section is like going to a botanical garden with everything you could imagine. The fresh cut flower section smells like heaven. The prices are cheap. There isn't much room for bargaining buy you can get a small discount by paying in cash or by buying multiple plants. I took so many photos like a kid in a candy store. My boyfriend drove and they have a big parking lot (paid) but I saw lots of buses nearby and the subway."
