Dali Sangling Village | The fringetree flowers are in full bloom, it's the perfect time to enjoy the blossoms! (With guide)

It's the perfect time to enjoy the flowers in Dali! In the thousand-year-old Sangling Village in Jianchuan, the most beautiful April days are here, with fringetree flowers blooming and the scenery as beautiful as a painting. This is the second year I've rushed to the ancient village to see the fringetree flowers, and the April snow scenery is still breathtakingly beautiful. ✅ 'April's fringetree blossoms are as beautiful as snow,' 'A tree covered with an inch of snow, fragrance wafts through ten miles of the village,' 'Century-old fringetree, blossoms surpassing the beauty of snow,' the fringetree flowers of Sangling Village are in full bloom, and this beautiful and spectacular 'April snow' is indeed breathtaking. In Jianchuan Bai language, fringetree flowers are called 'Gulu flowers,' which look like honeysuckle with only petals and no stamens. The flower leaves spread over the tree leaves, and up close, they look like white 'noodles' hanging on the trees, hence they also have a name called 'noodle flower.' ✅ The fringetree of Sangling ancient wood village blooms every April, and the flowers are like white clouds, hence also known as 'April snow.' Around Huanglongtan, the flowers are like brocade, the fragrance is pervasive, filling the surroundings, as if the soul is also rippling in the scent. When the fringetree's small buds are about to bloom, their shape, size, and color are similar to glutinous rice, and the flowers and tender leaves can be used to make tea, hence they are also called glutinous rice flowers or glutinous rice tea. ✅ Walking on the arch bridge of Huanglongtan, I was completely amazed by the blooming ancient trees in front of me. Looking around Huanglongtan, the fringetree's snow-white blossoms are full on the branches, and looking up, the fringetree flowers hang like snow on the branches. ✅ Such a beautiful, free, and less-known spot for flower appreciation definitely deserves more photos of the fringetree blossoms to be taken and shared with more friends. Although Huanglongtan is small, it is surrounded by ancient trees that are several hundred years old. It is understood that there are more than 40 ancient fringetree trees in Sangling Village, with the oldest being over 480 years old and reaching more than 10 meters in height. ✅ The leisurely and kind old people of Sangling Village are the best guides for the fringetree flowers.
