Nanjing Wuchao Gate Hydrangeas | What's it like to be stunned by a 600-year-old tree?

🌸 Sisters! I've discovered an absolutely stunning and relatively unknown flower viewing spot! Right next to the Ming Palace Ruins in Nanjing, these hydrangeas that have traveled through time from the Ming Dynasty are so beautiful that they instantly transport you back to the prosperous age of Jinling! ✨ Why should you definitely come to Wuchao Gate to see the hydrangeas? 🌳 600-year-old Palace Trees: These are living cultural relics that existed during the Zhu Di period! 📸 Every shot is a stunning ancient-style masterpiece: Mottled palace walls + a snow-white sea of flowers, creating an atmosphere that's off the charts. 🕗 Fewer people and beautiful scenery: 100 times quieter than Jiming Temple! 💐 Best viewing period: Now! Now! Now! (late March - mid-April) 📷 Photo Tips: 1️⃣ Wear Hanfu! Ming Dynasty style is the best! Travel through time in a second. 2️⃣ Bring an oiled paper umbrella, stand under the flowers and look back, it's absolutely stunning! 3️⃣ Come at 7 AM and have the entire sea of flowers to yourself. 🚇 How to get there: Take subway Line 2 to Minggugong Station, Exit 3, and walk for 5 minutes! Free! Free! Free! 💡 Tips: Remember to bring a small stool, the upward angle is absolutely stunning. The Nanjing Museum is nearby, you can visit it together. There are many delicious foods in Kexiang nearby, go for a big meal after taking photos. ⚠️ Important reminder: There are only 2 weeks left in the flowering period! Miss it and wait a year! Go this weekend!
