Plum Blossom Viewing and Fragrance Welcoming Spring at Century Park

The early spring at the end of February already has a warm sun of 20 degrees, which is the best time for an outing to enjoy plum blossoms. The moment you step into Century Park in Pudong, Shanghai, the fragrance of plum blossoms announces the arrival of spring. This 140-hectare urban green lung is now showcasing a poetic scene with plum blossoms covering the area like胭脂白雪 (rouge and white snow). Walking along the winding forest avenue, you can see the curved plum branches slanting out from the dark green metasequoia forest, like cinnabar brushstrokes in a landscape painting. ❗Plum Blossom Viewing Time The plum blossoms are already eighty percent in bloom, and now is the most beautiful time. Before mid-March, go, go, go💥 🌟Recommended Route: ✔️Enter from Entrance 1 on Century Avenue, and you will be greeted by the lakeside viewing area of Mirror Lake. Walk counterclockwise along the lake under the shade of the trees. On one side of the lake is a rare food street, adding to the plum blossom festival. ✔️After passing the Grand Fortune Restaurant, you will see a large area of wintersweet. The wintersweet is already fading, but the plum blossoms next to it are in full bloom. ✔️The scenic forest area between Gate 1 and Gate 7 is the best place to view plum blossoms now. Along the way, there are plum exploring areas, fragrant snow paths, and plum blossom exhibition areas. The four characters "Century Plum Garden" on the large stone tablet are only visible during this season when the plum blossoms are at their peak. ✔️The most recommended spot is the large plum grove in front of the One Foot Garden lawn. People are spreading mats and setting up tents on the lawn, enjoying the first warm day of the Snake Year and the plum blossom feast. 🔥Features of Plum Blossom Viewing at Century Park 1⃣️The entire sea of fragrant snow is composed of thousands of Gongfen and Lve plum blossoms interwoven into flowing ribbons of color. The red ones are like clouds falling to the ground, and the white ones are like fresh snow on the branches. 2⃣️The most captivating are the two-colored plum blossoms. One branch has pink and white gradient petals, while another branch is the crimson of a young girl's cheek. Different vibrant colors appear on the same plum blossom tree, creating a dazzling display. 3⃣️In the scenic forest area, the fusion of plum blossoms and forest reaches its peak. Tall trees leave small paths and swaying shadows, forming a canopy for the plum groves in the distance. Varying shades of emerald green are interspersed among the elegant plum blossoms, or a red cloud appears faintly in the vast expanse of green. 📝Tips: Even on working days, there are so many "dayis" (older women). There are also all kinds of selfies and live streams.
