In April 2022, the English cultural and tourism magazine "Jiangsu Glimpses",

produced by the "Charm of Jiangsu" Global Communication Center, has launched a

new spring version which recommends interesting spring folk customs, beautiful

museums and fun routes in Jiangsu.

What winter takes from here, spring will give it back. This classic verse by

Heine is especially evident in "Charm of Jiangsu". After a winter of dormancy,

the flowers on the Meihua Mountain in Nanjing are budding, the Biluochun tea

stretches on the Xishan Mountain in Suzhou, the Artemisia Selengensis and

Kalimeris Indica emerge from the ground, and the puffer fish also feel the

warmth of the spring river. When spring comes to Jiangsu, people will see the

beautiful flowers, tea and food of spring.

It has become a habit for Chinese tourists to come to Jiangsu to see flowers in

spring. The city flower of Nanjing is the plum blossom, which glows on the

Meihua Mountain near the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum; Yuantouzhu scenic spot of the

Taihu Lake is one of the three major cherry blossom viewing spots in the world,

also a story of Sino-Japanese friendship; Rape Flower in Taizhou Xinghua

Duotian is one of the four major flower seas in the world; Yancheng Dafeng

Holland Flower Sea is known as the "Best tulip scenic spot"; Yangzhou Marco

Polo Flower World has the world's largest flower carpet; "Natian Flower Sea" is

located in Santai Mountain National Forest Park, Suqian, Jiangsu, which

includes 612 flower fields that are "stitched" together... Spring comes and

grows on the branches of these flowers, releasing the unique fragrance of

spring in the south of the Yangtze River.

Tea is another gift that comes with the spring of Jiangnan. Every bud sprouting

in spring awakens on mountains in Jiangsu, making the spring scenes tastable

and admirable. Many teas with poetic names are all from Jiangsu, such as

Suzhou's Biluochun tea, Nanjing's Yuhua tea, Liyang's white tea, Yixing's

Yangxian tea, Yangzhou's Lvyangchun tea and Maoshan's Changqing tea. During

this period, the tea field can not only produce quality teas but also is a nice

place for tourists to go for a walk. Tea trees are pickier to choose their

planting sites than humans. Nowadays, people follow the footsteps of looking

for tea and enjoy one-stop services in Jiangsu including transportation,

accommodation, sightseeing, and food. In addition to the tea fields, tourists

can also walk into the surrounding tea houses, scenery parks, picturesque

villages, modern tea factories and tea museums.

In the spring of Jiangsu, tourists must not miss the fresh food such as

Qingtuan and Preserved and Braised Fresh Meat. In addition, Huai'an Kaiyang

Cattail, Yangzhou Puffer and River Clam from the "City of Gastronomy" as well

as seasonal wild vegetables such as Toona sinensis, Kalimeris Indica and

Artemisia Selengensis are very suitable to enjoy in spring.
