Don't Cluster Together: In Zhengzhou, Besides Rapeseed Flowers, There Are Also Peach Blossoms and Cherry Blossoms
This season, the peach blossoms have passed their prime viewing period, followed by rapeseed flowers, along with cherry blossoms, peach blossoms, and pear blossoms. As long as you don't cluster together to go, it's a good mood. Within 1 hour south of here, the mountainous areas in the southwest of Zhengzhou, such as Yiyang, Gongyi, and Xinmi, are all good choices. Outside 1 hour north, you can go to the Yellow River Wetland Protection Zone. Last week, we went to Peach Blossom Village, not many people, the scenery is good.
Peach Blossom Village is located at the entrance of the Yingcuiyi Scenic Area, or you can enter from the neighboring villages. This time, we entered directly from the scenic area gate, scanning the code, and as long as you have a green code, you can enter.

After entering the scenic area, don't walk too far after passing Meishan Waterfall, pay attention to turning left. After turning left, you'll arrive at this turning point in just 5 minutes, with several layers of rapeseed flower fields. We stopped here to admire the rapeseed flowers.

Continuing forward, you can see peach blossoms blooming all along the roadside, as well as a dense layer of pear blossoms hanging on the branches.

This pear tree looks quite old, but the flowers are blooming exceptionally well.
Facing this pear tree are two peach trees. The peach trees in the mountains are not expected to produce good fruit, they are mostly wild, and just these peach trees, naturally formed, blooming particularly alluring. Across from the peach trees is a farmhouse reflecting the flowers, resembling an outdoor paradise.


Next to the peach trees is a terraced field, this terraced field is planted with rapeseed flowers, and the rapeseed flowers are in full bloom, with peach blossoms and rapeseed flowers intermingling in red and yellow, which is particularly beautiful.

Through the peach blossoms, by the rapeseed flower field is a farmhouse and cowpen, a yellow cow is leisurely eating grass, and occasionally looks at me.

Continuing uphill, you'll reach the summit. From here, looking down, a small mountain village emerges.

This route is a loop route, not too long if you hike, with a total length of 5 kilometers or so, all good roads, normally I would hike it, the feeling of viewing and driving is completely different. After circling once, it took less than an hour to see the flowers and take pictures. There are many valleys and ridges in this area, it's like mountain connected to mountain, valley to valley, every mountain valley has its own beauty. If you stop and walk, you'll find more beautiful scenery.
