Appreciation of flowers is not a luxury for Kunming people. In Kunming, where flowers fly everywhere and all the time, no matter what the period is, there is always the company of flowers. Flowers bloom season after season, green leaves of tree after tree, one after another, flowers bloom continuously.

Entering the end of April and early May, Jacaranda has become a unique scenery on the streets of Kunming. This tree species, which has been introduced to Kunming for only more than 20 years, has settled in Kunming. It is indispensable in many road greening and beautiful courtyards. The shadow, unique colors and beautiful flower patterns bring Kunming a romantic and charming summer with rising purple mist.

Although you can enjoy Jacaranda in many places, the middle road of Jiaochang is the most concentrated area, and the flowering season is also the most amazing place. As you can see from the mobile phone map, there is a place called "Jacaranda Theme Leisure Park"., attracting us to go and see what happened.

Choose a sunny day and we go to the middle road of the teaching ground to see jacaranda. This is a very beautiful place. Take a look at the most popular Internet celebrity check-in spots in Kunming, and this place will definitely be on the list.

Jiaochang Middle Road is located in the north of Kunming's Urban area and on the south side of Second Ring Road. This is an urban road and an important transportation road, with a large traffic flow, dense communities and units on both sides of the road, and very tight parking spaces.

During rush hour, the roads are crowded with all kinds of cars. Therefore, if you go to Jiaochang Middle Road to see flowers, it is recommended to take a bus or take a taxi. There are many buses with stops here.

Because of Internet communication and community creation, the Jacaranda landscape on Jiaochang Middle Road is becoming more and more beautiful. I remember when I came to see flowers last year, the road was being renovated, crowded with people and cars, and messy. It was a luxury to take photos of people who didn't lead the way... Only after I went did I realize that the current situation had changed greatly.

The renovation and upgrading of Jiaochang Middle Road has been completed, and it feels that the road surface has been widened a lot. On the smooth asphalt road, there are some purple flowers irregularly distributed. They are petals falling from jacaranda, which are crushed by cars and integrated into the asphalt road surface., become a special scenery.

The sidewalks on both sides of the street have been widened a lot. Under the tall jacaranda trees, there are sidewalks more than two meters wide, and there are garden passages several meters wide. Stone benches are set up at intervals for tired pedestrians to rest; there are many creative huts and small shelves are built in the jacaranda trees. Red, purple and pink are matched with the flower trees along the way to complement each other.

There are pictures related to jacaranda on a long wall, as well as many wall paintings from old Kunming life. It is a very cordial memory and becomes a good background for people to take photos.

The most eye-catching thing is naturally the connected Jacaranda in full bloom. The flowers of Jacaranda are concentrated into clusters, with strings of petals like small bells connected in series, hanging on the branches and swaying in the wind. In clusters and layers, the big tree becomes a romantic purple crown.

The leaves of Jacaranda are also very special. They are green and full of vitality. There are neat and even small openings between the leaves, like the teeth of a comb. The sun passes through the gaps between the leaves, scattering waves of flowers, and dancing with the flowers is very beautiful.

With the different flowering periods, the purple flowers are deep and shallow, thick or light, like rising purple mist. Like a cloud of purple clouds, floating on the long road, it is very beautiful.

If we go back to 30 or 40 years, old Kunming knows that there is a place called Beijiao Chang, which is located in the northern part of the Urban area and north of Lianhuachi. At that time, Kunming City was very small. After passing the North Railway Station and the Ring Road, it was the suburbs. The difference between an Urban area and a suburb is very big. The roads are narrow and there are few buses, so it is not easy to get there.

It should be said that the name of this "Beijiao Chang" also has a history. Because during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it was a place for military parades, martial arts exercises, drills, and garrison troops, it was called "Jiaochang". Due to its geographical location, it was distinguished from the teaching grounds in the south, so it was called "Beijiao Chang".

With the advancement of Kunming's urban development, great changes have taken place in Beijiao Field. Jiaochang West Road, Jiaochang North Road, Jiaochang East Road, Jiaochang Middle Road... It has built crisscrossing urban roads, rows of high-rise buildings, and a very popular shop market... It has become a prosperous neighborhood in the city.

Jacaranda is a deciduous tree native to Brazil, South America. It was introduced to Kunming in 1984. After continuous cultivation and adjustment, it took root in Kunming. It will become a tree for urban greening even later.

We once saw a report saying that when the urban renovation and the new urban green belt in the Beijiaechang area of Kunming were completed, hundreds of Jacaranda trees were planted on various roads in the Beijiaechang area, especially the middle road in the Jiaochang area.

It was this experiment more than 20 years ago that turned Jiaochang Middle Road into a beautiful Jacaranda Avenue, famous for its romantic flower street.

More than 250 jacaranda trees have been planted on Jiaochang Middle Road. At nearly 30 years of age, the trunk has become thicker than a bowl, the crown is large, and the planting is concentrated. The flowering season of jacaranda on Jiaochang Middle Road is naturally an amazing picture. It is dizzying.

Unlike cherry blossoms that bloom first and then grow leaves, jacaranda grows leaves first and then blooms. When all the green leaves fall and the tree is full of purple and blue flowers, jacaranda enters its full bloom, and then the flowers will It will slowly fall until it wither, and new green leaves will grow.

It used to be a deserted and empty countryside. Because of the use of jacaranda as a street tree, Jiaochang Middle Road became Kunming's Internet celebrity street.

If you also like this romantic purple sky rising, then go to the middle of the teaching ground to see the flowers and have a date with Jacaranda. It is very beautiful.
