The Tianzhu Mountain Tung Flower Festival 2021 (Xiamen Haicang) kicked off at

the Tianzhu Mountain National Forest Park on April 24, and it will run until

May 3, according to The Haicang District Media Center. Under the guidance of

the Haicang District Rural Revitalization Leading Group and Xiamen Daily, this

the Dongfu Subdistrict Office of Haicang District, and the Haicang District

Federation of Trade Unions. It is being organized by Xiamen Tianzhu Mountain

Tourism Scenic Area Investment Management, a Haicang Urban Construction Group

Tung flowers are absolutely gorgeous when in bloom, and they look like wondrous

snow when falling. This year, tung trees on Tianzhu Mountain will be blossoming

from mid or late April to early May.

The Tung Flower Festival is held in Haicang District with a view to pushing new

boundaries in the process of rural revitalization. The main venues of the Tung

Flower Festival include the Four-season Flower Valley and the Bamboo Garden in

Tianzhu Mountain. Visitors can enjoy immersive experiences through a series of

Tung Flower themed activities all along the route connecting the eastern and

western sides of the scenic area. On opening day, the event started at the main

venue and visitors were treated to some traditional Chinese performances.

Included were performances such as the Recitation of Tang poems by children, a

Han Chinese costume show, a display of some supremely beautiful Tung Flowers,

and a competition to find the best farmhouse chefs in the region. Other

activities included the Tung Flower Youth Market, the Tung Flower Photo

Exhibition, the Han Chinese Costume Experience, the Tung Flower Garden Party,

the Tumbler of the Imperial Concubine, and the Photography Lucky Bags.
