The Spring Festival holiday is over, yet the vast plum groves at Shanghai Haiwan National Forest Park are in their most poetic full bloom.

During the Year of the Horse Spring Festival, 40,000 plum trees shone brightly, thanks to sunny days and various activities. Statistics show nearly 25,000 visitors during the holiday, with operating revenues over 1 million yuan—both records for the same period, even exceeding the total of the past three Spring Festivals.

These impressive figures are more than just numbers; they reflect a vivid practice of a beautiful life about plum blossoms.

Entering the plum garden is like stepping into a fragrant, colorful dream. Red plums glow like clouds, white plums look pure as snow, and pink plums appear soft and lovely. They form a brilliant blossom scene that goes perfectly with the pavilions and green trees, bringing visitors a wonderful visual and olfactory feast.

Thousands of plum blossoms line Plum Garden Avenue, creating a dreamy "Plum Fragrance Tunnel". Visitors walk in groups, stopping to enjoy the flowers and take photos of the beautiful spring scenery. By the lake, reflections of pink blossoms float on the water, with tall metasequoia trees in the distance, forming a peaceful ink-wash painting. Photographers use their professional gear to capture this delicate and timeless oriental beauty.

The holiday is over, but the fragrance of the vast plum forest remains rich.

This Plum Blossom Festival runs until March 22. The park will hold colorful themed events every weekend to come.
