Beijing: Peach Blossom Sea Scenic Spot of Pinggu



 Pingu, a suburb district of Beijing, is the most famous town of the big peach in China. The 220,000-mu garden of big peach is can be said as the largest peach garden in the world, the largest peach town in China and the largest fruit planting area in China’s capital city of Beijing. So far, Pinggu, Beijing has consecutively held 13 International Peach Blossom Festival successfully. And it has been a famous spring tourism activity in Beijing-Tianjin region.
It is time for peach blooming in Pinggu in mid April (15th - 25th) of every year. The over 220 thousand mu colorful peach blossom sea presents tourists a majestic and spectacular scene, which attracts numerous visitors from Beijing, Tianjin city and Hebei provinces etc to flock to enjoy the vaporing and rosy cloud. When I attend the Beijing Xian tour in April this year, I was lucky to be taken there by my friend in Beijing and had a witness of the magnificent pink peach blossom sea.
With high in the east and low in the west, the full-bloom stage of every peach orchard differs a little. In some peach orchard, tourists can appreciate the peach blossom even in early May. In the peach orchard, a purple flower which called is “Eryuelan” can be seen everywhere.
It is said its florescence is even longer than peach blossom. It is free for appreciating the peach blossom during the Festival. As the local tourism is now under the initial stage of development, therefore some tourists facilities are still incomplete. On the one hand, the local villagers expect tourists to view the blossom and buy their subsidiary agricultural products; on the other hand, they don’t want tourists to step back and forth in their orchards. You may see some villagers shout at these tourists sometimes.
My friend took me to the Xian Agriculture Expo Park in the spare time of my Xian tour, it was indeed an interesting experience!
