[March Only | South China Agricultural University Spring Outing Guide]

| South China Agricultural University Spring Outing Guide. 1. Spring Splendor in Full Bloom March at South China Agricultural University (SCAU) is like a Monet garden in Lingnan. Botanical wonders are in full bloom: ▶ Bauhinia Tunnel The Hong Kong Orchid Trees and White Bauhinias in front of the Administration Building intertwine to form a 2 km pink cloud. The falling petals resemble snowflakes in the breeze. The best viewing spot is at the intersection of Bauhinia Bridge and the Wetland Park. ▶ Golden Shower The Golden Trumpet Tree forest next to the Materials Science and Engineering Building is in full bloom. Bright yellow bell-shaped flowers adorn the branches, and from 2pm to 4pm, the sunlight filtering through the petals creates a golden spectacle. ▶ Hidden Sakura Grove The Guangzhou Cherry blossoms behind the College of Animal Science are at their peak. The pale pink petals shimmer with a pearly luster, creating a picturesque scene against the red brick buildings. ▶ Other Surprises Cascading magenta azaleas on Azalea Hill, irises by the stream in the Wetland Park, and the emerald green buds of camphor trees in Camphor Garden. You might even encounter the fiery red blossoms of the kapok tree. 2.

Light and Shadow Magic: Capture the translucent glow of cherry blossoms in the morning sun before 10am on sunny days. Cloudy days are ideal for capturing the soft beauty of bauhinias. 3. Reflection Philosophy: Create artificial reflections with a bottle of water to photograph Golden Trumpet Trees. Capture double exposures on the wetland boardwalk. 👗Outfit Suggestions: Choose light green or moon-white hanfu. For modern outfits, a creamy apricot knit sweater and denim skirt are recommended. Avoid bright red or fluorescent colors. 🎞Atmospheric Touches: • Bees Collecting Nectar: Observe the azalea bushes for 10–15 minutes. • Falling Petals in Slow Motion: Use your phone's 240fps mode. • Human Touch: Capture candid shots of art students sketching under the trees. Friendly Reminder: Please appreciate the flowers without picking them. We recommend taking the campus bus (CNY 3 per ride) to travel between flower viewing areas. Wear comfortable athletic shoes and prepare for a 20,000+ step spring feast!
