[Cherry Blossom Chasing in Wuhan: A Brief Encounter with a Pink and White Flower Event]

In Wuhan at the end of March, the East Lake Cherry Blossom Garden was covered in pink and white. The five-story pagoda stood quietly in the sea of ​​flowers, the weeping cherry trees cascaded like waterfalls, and the Somei Yoshino trees bloomed into continuous clouds. I walked on the fallen cherry blossoms from early morning to dusk, and only then did I realize that the sea of ​​flowers would make people forget the passage of time. Others also moved to Northwest Lake Park. Although the cherry blossom forest surrounded by high-rise buildings is not as majestic as that of East Lake, it does show a rare exquisiteness in the city. But when we reached Qingshan Park and Zhongshan Park, the branches were already dotted with faded petals, like crumpled chiffon. Not to mention the empty branches on the Hankou river beach and the tracks under the Guanggu SkyTrain that have lost all their spring colors - it turns out that the time difference from cherry blossoms blooming to withering is just a matter of rain.
