🌸Yuantouzhu Cherry Blossom Viewing Itinerary:

Starting from Chongshan Gate, you'll step into a pink wonderland. Once a private garden during the Republican era, it has been transformed into a park with scenery in all four seasons. In early spring, the early-blooming cherry blossoms on both sides are a spectacular pink waterfall.

Next, head to the Cherry Blossom Pavilion, a three-story ancient-style building that serves as a "watchtower" for the Cherry Blossom Valley. From here, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the entire cherry blossom forest.

Changchun Bridge, known as the "internet-famous bridge" of Yuantouzhu, is lined with cherry trees that bloom in shades of pink and white. Rowing a boat across the bridge feels like traveling through a painting.

Cherry Blossom Valley is a 200,000-square-meter pink ocean, with early- and late-blooming cherry blossoms taking turns to showcase their beauty. We recommend viewing the weeping cherry blossom waterfall in front of the Cherry Blossom Viewing Tower or experiencing the healing sight of fallen petals covering the stream at Yinggu Liufang.

Finally, the China-Japan Friendship Cherry Blossom Forest is a hidden gem, perfect for taking photos with fewer crowds. In the afternoon, sunlight filters through the petals onto the wooden walkway, making you feel like you're in a Japanese movie.
