Strolling in the spring, I didn't expect the cherry blossoms here to be in full bloom

The current Expo Garden is brimming with greenery and new buds. The Cherry Blossom Avenue near the Chongyun Tower stretches for 1.5 kilometers, where 2,000 Japanese late-blooming cherry trees have been planted, and they are now in full bloom. 🌸 Admission: Free 🌸 Transportation: 【Light Rail】Take the rail transit line 3 to the Expo Garden Station Exit 1, and walk for 5 minutes to arrive. Or take the rail transit line 5 to the Expo Center Station Exit 1, and walk for 1 minute to arrive. 【Self-driving】Navigate to the Expo Garden East Park parking lot. 🌸 Photo tips: 1️⃣ It is recommended to go on a sunny day for the best photos of the flowers and scenery, and be prepared for sun protection. 2️⃣ For cherry blossom photography, it is suggested to go after 4 PM, using the cherry blossoms as a foreground to shoot the Chongyun Tower. 3️⃣ Cherry Blossom Avenue can be reached by navigating to Lingyun Bridge (picture 8), and some cherry blossoms have already started to fall, so hurry if you want to take photos. 4️⃣ Near Cherry Blossom Avenue, places suitable for taking ancient-style photos include the Tianjin Garden (picture 18) and Suzhou Garden (pictures 10, 11). If you don't go to Cherry Blossom Avenue, there are also a few cherry trees near the Expo Garden East Gate that are good for photography. 🌸 Recreation tips: 1️⃣ The Expo Garden is very large, it is recommended to buy a ticket for the electric tour car directly upon entering, 15 yuan per person, which allows you to get off at major attractions, and the tour car operates from 9:00 to 17:00. You can also choose to take a boat at the dock. 2️⃣ If you prefer to walk, be sure to wear comfortable shoes and travel light. 3️⃣ There are shops and vending machines inside the garden, which are a bit more expensive than outside, so it is advised to bring your own water and food. 4️⃣ Chongyun Tower (pictures 6, 7) is the only tower-style building in the garden, with a height of 51.6 meters and seven floors, from which you can climb and overlook the entire garden. However, it is currently under renovation and not open to the public, so those who want to visit should take note not to make a wasted trip! Take half a day to come here and enjoy the splendid flowers, and walk along this 'most beautiful cherry blossom road'!
