Post subject: Walk in the Peach Blossom Garden

Walk in the Peach Blossom Garden
-- Trip to Nan Hui with iMandarin

Blossoms are particularly auspicious flowers. Coming as they do in spring, they symbolize life, growth and prosperity. The peach blossom is the most auspicious of all plants, its significance lying in the symbolic importance of the peach. The peach, in Chinese culture, is a symbol of long life, and is regarded as the strongest defense against evil.

Peach trees are everywhere in the scenic area and blossoms come into bloom from late March to late April every year. It is just like a picture of rural scenery and a land of peace, away from the turmoil of the world. "Coming to Taohuayuan to be close to the nature". Visitors can enjoy the beautiful rural scenery and learn more about the new countryside.

Imagine what you can enjoy? Pink peach blossom; The blue sky; The attractive fragrance around you; best friends and….. All in all, everything is just like a dream!
