Cherry Blossoms and Other Beautiful Flowers Usher in Spring in China

Residents and visitors in China were treated to beautiful flowers as Spring arrived. Aerial footage shows vast areas of cherry blossoms in the Guizhou Province.

Bright pink and white flowers carpeted the landscape in Gui'an New District and Qingzhen City. In Anshun City, face patterns made of yellow, white and purple rapeseed flowers covered the hillsides. In north China's Shanxi Province, pink-white apricot blossoms could be seen as well. In Jinzhai County of east China's Anhui Province, bright red azalea blossoms mixed in with green mountains. While cherry blossoms can be found around the world, the majority of species can be found in eastern Asia.
