Nanjing City during the Qingming Festival | See a riot of colour in one scenic spot

At the end of March, the flower shadows and historical sites of Zhongshan Mountain interweave into poetry in the mist and rain. The flowers here are not only gifts from nature, but also a silent narration of the Six Dynasties and the Republic of China. When white doves fly over the wisteria and the new green of the parasol trees reflects on the red walls, I finally understand the profound meaning of "I have nothing in the south of the Yangtze River, so I give you a branch of spring." ✅Must experience: ✨As the core attraction of Zhongshan Mountain, Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum welcomes the relay blooming of two iconic flowers during the Qingming Festival. ✨Although Meihua Mountain is known as "the best Meihua Mountain in the world", it has a total of 11 variety groups, more than 380 varieties, and more than 35,000 plants in total. ✨Although the Qingming Festival is coming to an end, if you are lucky, you can still encounter late plum varieties such as "Nanjing Red", which are scattered among the lush mountains and forests, with a unique cool charm. ✨The Cherry Blossom Garden takes over the baton of the flowering period. 4,000 cherry trees are distributed along the Shinto Road, with early and mid-season cherry varieties intertwined, forming a unique contrast with the historical vicissitudes of the Ming City Wall and Stone Statue Road. ✨The late cherry blossoms such as "Guanshan" and "Songyue" are in full bloom, and the pink and white petals are like clouds and snow, which contrast beautifully with the red walls and green tiles of the ancient buildings of Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, as if traveling through a thousand years. ✨Before Qingming Festival, Nanjing's hydrangea is also a unique hotspot. In Zhongshan Scenic Area, elegant milky white hydrangeas are planted next to the Changsheng Deer Garden near Gate No. 3 of the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum and the Taixiang Zhaoming Ruins on the shore of Yanque Lake. ✨The flower balls of hydrangea are densely packed. They are green or white when they first bloom, and gradually turn into pure white or elegant milky white after blooming. ✨Luckily I caught the late stage of color change, and the large clusters of hydrangeas floated on the branches like cotton candy, and even the air became sweet. 📝Note tips: It is recommended to buy a combined ticket, 100 yuan can visit four attractions There is a shuttle bus in the park, 10 yuan each time To avoid the crowds, you can follow the following order: Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum - Meiling Palace - Music Stage - Linggu Temple
