Surrounding Chengdu: Aromatic Flowers and Romantic Spring Escapes

✨2.5 hrs west of Chengdu I found the Chang'an spring scenery from Li Bai's poems‼️ Ten thousand acres of gilded rapeseed flower fields × the flying eaves of an ancient temple The moment I put on a Tang-style Hanfu and flew a kite, I suddenly understood what "riding on the wind of success" meant. 📍Location: Guangming Temple, Hongya (No tickets required‼️) 🚗Transportation: Drive from Chengdu and navigate to "Guangming Temple." Toll fee is approx. CNY 60. ⏰Flowering period: Early March to mid-April (Go now!) 📸Full Guide to Tang-Style Photos 👗 Clothing Recommendations ▫️Choose a skirt with ruched bust! Lotus root pink/bamboo green/moon white create a soft light filter in the flower sea. ▫️Finishing touches: Pearl face stickers + floral appliques (approx. CNY 9.9 with free shipping on Taobao) ▫️Bring a kite/round fan/bamboo woven flower basket as props. Even beginners can pose with a sense of story. 🎐Fun Tips ▫️You may encounter a monk sweeping the steps in the early morning mist, as if time has been reversed. ▫️You can ask for a lotus lamp in the temple to pray for blessings (CNY 20, donations are welcome). ⚠️Lessons Learned ❶ Bring a reflector! Backlighting will cause poor facial lighting. ❷ Drone photographers remember to declare. There are no-fly zones for drones nearby. 🪁️"Please check your admission ticket for high spring" "The moment the kite string is released, I and the spring breeze are both passers-by" They say rapeseed flowers are tacky? That's because you haven't seen a spring blessed by an ancient temple.
