Pic above: Main gateway to the fortress in background; unidentified floral object in foreground; hard to imagine with such colourful pretty flowers that this was once a site of bloody battles.
Pic above: Petunias or pansies ??? Taken somewhere near the pavilion
Pic above: Camellias near a temple - I read that the falling flower evokes an image of decapitation to the Japanese samurai but what does it mean to the Koreans? 
Pic above: Taken from the fortress ramparts; actually this was my first glimpse of cherry blossoms ever in real life before I suffered a surfeit of them in Jinhae.
