Spring Moganshan: How to Operate? Don't Waste This Touch of Spring – Let's Have a Spring Tea Party
Lead: When you mention Moganshan, what will you think of? I believe many people have the same reaction – it's a 'resort for escaping summer heat'. Moganshan has become one of the 'Four Resort Destinations for Escaping Summer Heat in China' together with Badaguan, Lushan, and Jiping Mountain. Even if you haven't been there, you've surely heard of its name. Moganshan boasts a breathtaking forest landscape of towering, verdant peaks and vast, tranquil waters, with a bamboo area of 137 square kilometers – one of the largest bamboo seas in China, and a forest coverage rate of over 92%. It's a genuine 'natural oxygen bar', with an average summer temperature of only 24°C, earning it the reputation of 'a cool world' and being one of the 'Four Resort Destinations for Escaping Summer Heat in China'.
Because of its inherent natural advantages, we all define Moganshan as a resort for escaping summer heat. Because 'resort for escaping summer heat' has already been deeply rooted in my heart, I often overlook its scenery in other seasons. In fact, Moganshan is not just about the coolness of summer; it's also beautiful in spring, offering a beautiful spring scene that shouldn't be missed.
The spring Moganshan doesn't require you to climb to the top of the mountain and gaze into the distance; you just need to find a homestay that suits your mood and scenery, and then explore the spring colors of Moganshan. For those who love food, they yearn for Moganshan's spring bamboo shoots and authentic Moganshan farmhouse cuisine. Find a homestay you like and enjoy a delicious farmhouse meal. Bamboo chicken with bamboo shoots is fragrant and mellow, bamboo shoot and pork is fresh and tender, and malan head is uniquely flavored, and stone ear is delicate and crunchy – these are all the best ingredients in Moganshan in spring.
In early March, when everything is coming back to life, all kinds of flowers are in bloom, and Moganshan is no exception. Moganshan's flowers bloom at different altitudes, and their flowering periods are different. Therefore, throughout the spring, you'll always find that Moganshan never lacks floral colors. Dongzhen Village, Lao Ling Water Reservoir, Yangwan, and Huaguo Mountain all hide beautiful 'Peach Blossom Villages'; they entered their flowering period in mid-March; the 50 acres of pear trees in Shiyi New Village are the largest pear tree cluster in Moganshan Town, and the flowering period lasts from mid-March to mid-April; the pear blossoms on the hillside are like snowflakes, which is very beautiful; Moganshan Town's surrounding rural areas are full of oilpea flowers, which are continuous along the roads and streams, and the fragrance of oilpea flowers fills the air.
Of course, the spring Moganshan has more than just flowers; there's also the Chrysanthemum Sea at the Three Miles Line, the flowering period of peach blossoms at Moganshan Scenic Area, and so on. They all add a touch of spring to Moganshan, waiting for the season of spring flowers blooming, to show off their most beautiful colors, welcoming all the tourists who come to admire the flowers.
For hiking and enjoying the spring scenery, Moganshan also has its own ways. To make the most of Moganshan's spring colors, every tourist who comes for hiking and enjoying the spring scenery has their own way of opening up, but this year, Moganshan has a new operation: you can have a spring tea party under the peach trees in Maitan Eco-Park. Maitan Eco-Park has dozens of acres of peach groves, which began to bloom in mid-March, and the flowering period is at its peak in late March. At this time, the most spring-scenery-chasing tourists will come. You can sit under the peach trees, brew a pot of Moganhuangya – a new tea from Moganshan that's blooming this spring, and enjoy the beautiful scene of peach blossoms falling like snowflakes, just like the story of the God of Three Lives and Three Worlds and Bai Suzhen drinking peach wine. However, we are drinking tea instead of wine.
When you come to Moganshan in spring, you shouldn't miss this beautiful spring color!
