Autumn chrysanthemums show off their beautiful appearance against the backdrop of green Masan.

The Masan Goga Popa Chrysanthemum Festival is in full swing, lured by 120 million chrysanthemums.

Yellow, white, etc. are also available in different colors.

The colorful chrysanthemums also smell attractive, so even the children who came with their mothers and fathers are drunk on the scent of chrysanthemums.

Unlike last year, when the event was held only in one place, this festival added one more venue.

Changwon expects to revitalize its local commercial districts.
