Xiamen is cooling down! The sea of Celosia argentea flowers in Haicang is in full bloom, stepping into a painterly autumnal gentleness

Red dances like flames, yellow flows like molten gold, the two colors intertwine and spread like a sea. I found Xiamen’s most brilliant autumn mark at Hukou Park. Xiamen has finally cooled down! 🌬️ The slightly chilly wind carries the feeling of autumn, making it the perfect season for a walk. Taking advantage of the pleasant weather, I came to Haicang Hukou Park, and unexpectedly stepped right into the gentle world of Celosia argentea. 01 The whole garden’s autumn colors can’t be contained, a sea of flowers paints a picture As soon as I entered the park, my eyes were captured by vast patches of Celosia argentea. The red flower spikes flicker like flames, passionate and full; The yellow flower spikes flow like molten gold, bright and warm. The two colors intertwine, layering across the still-green grass, as if nature spilled its palette, painting a richly colored autumn oil painting. I visited in the afternoon; although it was cloudy, the colors of the flowers did not fade but gained a calm texture. If you come on a sunny afternoon before three or four o’clock, the gentle slanting sunlight will cast a soft glow over the flower sea, and every shot you take will be naturally filtered beauty. 02 Practical check-in guide, keep it handy to avoid getting lost 📍 Location: Haicang Hukou Park (accurate navigation available) 🎫 Admission: Free and open all day 🚇 Subway: Line 2, exit 2 at “Maqing Road Station,” about a 10-minute walk 🚗 Driving: Convenient parking around the park, perfect for a relaxed weekend outing The flower sea is mainly concentrated in the open lawn area not far from the park entrance, the terrain is flat, suitable for walking, photography, and family visits.
