Cherry Blossom trip to Jinzhong 🌸

It was a trip to Jinzhong 🌸 We started our day at Yuci Old Town, a beautifully preserved ancient town where cherry blossoms add a soft touch ✨ to the historical architecture. The contrast between the pink petals and the traditional courtyards made for some of the most unique and picturesque shots 📸 We wandered through the narrow stone-paved streets, stopping at wooden 🪵 archways covered in cherry blossoms. The best time to visit is early in the morning (7:00 AM – 9:00 AM), when the soft morning light enhances the beauty of the flowers, and the streets are peaceful ✨ 📍Yuci District, Jinzhong, Shanxi, China We then visited Chang Family Manor, a grand Qing Dynasty residence known for its impressive courtyards and gardens. During spring, cherry blossoms 🌸 bloom in the garden areas, providing a stunning contrast to the ancient buildings. We explored the stone pathways and found a secluded pavilion where petals gently fell into the pond, creating a perfect photo opportunity 🙌 The best time to visit is between 9:30 AM – 11:30 AM, when the light is soft and ideal for photography 📸 📍Jinzhong City, Shanxi, China We also made our way to Mian Mountain ⛰️ a breathtaking mountain range where cherry blossoms bloom along the hiking trails and temple grounds. The combination of rugged cliffs, historic temples, and delicate pink flowers was absolutely mesmerizing. Between 1:30 PM – 3:00 PM, the lighting ✨ was perfect for capturing the full beauty of this unique cherry blossom spot. We hiked up to a viewpoint where the blossoms framed the stunning valley landscape, making for some of our favorite shots of the day 📸 📍Hiexiu City, Jinzhong, Shanxi, China #vacation #travel #cherryblossom25
