Beijing: May Day Check in the West Beijing Rape Flower Sea Festival
travel notes
Every time the spring is warm and enjoying flowers, I will think of "Xugong Store in Suxin City" by Yang Wanli, a poet of the Song Dynasty. "The fence is sparse and the path is deep, and the tree heads are new green yet to turn into shade. Children rushed to chase the yellow butterfly, but flew into the cauliflower and nowhere to find it." The poem shows a beautiful picture of a sea of rapeseed flowers. Now, you can also see such a beautiful sea of rapeseed flowers in Beijing.
This sea of rapeseed flowers is located in a 200-acre farmland called Guai Village in Wangzuo Town, Fengtai District, 37 kilometers southwest of Tiananmen Square. The locals have carefully built this sea of rapeseed flowers into a great place to take photos and check in. Under the blue sky, golden waves rose, and the fragrance of rapeseed flowers was refreshing. The tickets here are also designed very poetically. There is a Tibetan poem written on the ticket, which reads from left to right: "Guacun Rape Flower Festival”。
With huge windmills, balloons, and pastoral photo frames, you can shoot beautiful pastoral scenery from any angle.
If you feel tired, you can sit down and rest on the pastoral chair among the flowers. Pick up the paintbrush and fill in the beautiful scenery of this idyllic sea of flowers. You can also send a postcard from Huahai to your future.
In the sea of flowers, giant cartoon rhubarb ducks and Doraemon are waving to you, and the Love Flower Corridor and the White Half Moon Bay are waiting for you to snuggle up.
There are also a group of changeable scarecrows in the field, working hard "seriously". Do you want to take a photo with them?
Many people are curious, why is this called a "weird village"? I heard from locals that it is said that there is a rare grass growing along the river in the village. Villagers call it "strange grass" because they can't name it. Later, the villagers named the village "Guicao Village", and later changed its name to "Guicao Village". Although the name is a bit strange, it is easy to remember. Around May Day, this is the most beautiful season for rapeseed flowers. Ask your family and friends to come here to enjoy flowers, take photos, and check in. The trip will be worthwhile.
