| Mild Climate |
|
| Gyeongsangnam-do has one of the mildest climates in South Korea. The province¡¯s weather and temperatures are greatly affected by the sea, as southern and eastern areas both have vast coastal regions. The northwestern areas are very mountainous, with high peaks that help to block cold northeastern winds. |
