On the second day of the Year of the Ox, flowers in the world come to Yuntai

In China, the most solemn festival is the Spring Festival, and the colorful "New Year customs" are an indelible memory in the hearts of every Chinese. The Chinese people's "Year" is both sacred and full of joy. Every day has different customs, and every place has unique customs.

February 13 is the second day of the first lunar month. The custom on the second day of the first lunar month is to return to her mother's home and sacrifice to the God of Wealth.

Having lived in Guangzhou for decades, I have never had a Spring Festival as popular as the Spring Festival in the Year of the Ox in 2021. Because of the "New Year on the spot", the roads during the Spring Festival in the past were quiet and sparsely populated. Instead, they were replaced by heavy traffic, crowded scenic spots and crowded with thousands of people. Traffic should be restricted, and the tranquility I like is gone forever.

There are people at the entrance of Yuntai Garden at Lower Baiyun Mountain. There are four or five long queues for tickets purchased on the spot, an artificially winding long queue for tickets purchased online, and two long queues at the ticket gate. The noise is endless.

It was finally easy to buy tickets to enter the scenic spot. From the gate to the promenade of the sprinkler platform, what came into view was a number of exquisitely crafted scenery groups. The integration of traditional Chinese festival elements brought a festive atmosphere to the face, and the sides were filled with tulips, with many flowers and many eyes, and many people and many words.

The garden cannot hide the spring scenery, and all kinds of flowers compete for beauty.

Tulips are the theme flower exhibition of Yuntai Garden during this year's Spring Festival. It is said that 100,000 tulips have arrived in stunning fashion, and the noble elegance of tulips can be seen everywhere.

Next to the Yan Lake, tulip flowers of several colors are competing to bloom, matching with seasonal flowers to form a colorful flower belt, intertwined with the green lawn and green lake surface to create a colorful artistic conception, forming a grand drawing The scenery is like a human color palette.

Kapok, bauhinia, yellow-yellow rosewood, peach blossoms, crabapple, geraniums, roses, gerberas, and lavender, Lu Binghua, and hanging bell flowers that I love are in full bloom, competing to show their tall and straight or beautiful figures. Colorful and eye-catching. They either meander along the paths in the garden, or dot between flower mirrors and garden sketches in the forest, or stretch in the flower fields. They are really gorgeous to the sky, creating a spring-filled New Year picture.

On both sides of the waterfalls and colorful steps, next to the Roman colonnade, red and enthusiastic geraniums and lively and bright pink flower-flower crabapple dot the steps here into a red carpet, making people can't help but stop and watch.

Kapok is the city flower of Guangzhou. It originally bloomed in May, but it blooms very early this year. Perhaps it is because of her blooming in recognition of this year's anti-epidemic hero. The fiery red flowers are in full bloom on the branches and can be seen from afar, but it is difficult for mobile phones to capture a close-up view of her.

There are several yellow-flower windmills on the hillside under the blue sky and white clouds, and bright yellow flowers hang high on the trees like wind chimes. They are playful and cute, full of vitality of life. They can't help but stand on tiptoe and reach out to touch the nearest one to the ground.

The Lu Binghua in new Zealand is my great love. Some people may ask, have you fallen in love with someone else? Don't you like lavender best? No, I like lavender because lavender is purple. Because I like purple, I like purple flowers, such as lavender, lilacs, wisteria flowers... Lu Binghua has thicker stems and flowers than lavender. The color is also richer. The red, pink, purple, and white ones each show the thousands of years and dot the earth. She represents maternal love! Seeing the Lu Binghua in front of me, I was singing the song "Lu Binghua" in my heart:

Thinking of my mother's words every night, shining tears and Lu Binghua

The stars in the sky do not speak, and the children on the ground miss their mother

Eyes in the sky blink and blink, mother's heart is Lu Binghua

The tea garden in my hometown is full of flowers, and my mother's heart is in the world

Thinking of my mother's words every night, shining tears and Lu Binghua

The Lu Binghua and hanging bell flower in Yuntai Garden are planted together and are difficult to find. At first glance, I thought the hanging bell flower was Lu Binghua, and the hanging bell flower was very amazing.

The magnolia flowers on the hillside are in full bloom. Magnolia is a fragrant woody plant, and its fragrance is intoxicating. Mulan was planted as far back as the Spring and Autumn Period. In the "Li Sao" by the great poet Qu Yuan, there is a good saying,"Drinking the dew of Mulan in the morning, and eating the chrysanthemum in the evening" to show his noble personality.

The poet of the Tang Dynasty sang: "Enjoy the white magnolias in the morning and evening, and it is spring in the old district." If women admire magnolia trees every day and smell the rich fragrance, they will be old and young, retain their years and remain young forever.
The meaning of magnolia flowers is loyal and unswerving love.

It's a big tree, with thick branches and lush branches.

The pink Dutch windmill in the distance is also a photo shoot site and can pretend to be in Europe.

In Yuntai Garden, do you hear the sound of flowers blooming? I heard it, not only the sound of flowers blooming, but also the beep of whistles. It was a warning sound from the staff to the crowd entering the grass to shoot flowers. The whistles came one after another. I wish we could quietly listen to the sound of flowers blooming...

The restaurant next to Yuntai Garden was also crowded. It took half an hour to sit down. A colorful Shahe powder, red, yellow, white, purple and green powder segments dotted the plate, and a cabbage heart greatly satisfied our taste buds.
