Thousands of blooming dendrobiums, a member of the orchid family, have slowed down the pace of visitors to the first orchid exhibition at the Kunming Botanical Garden in southwest China's Yunnan Province. More than 200 varieties of orchids were on display, capturing the hearts of locals and visitors alike.

The exhibition area features a range of integrated horticultural elements such as rockeries, streams, corridors, tree stumps, bonsai, wooden pavilions, and picture frames that recreate the natural habitats and living environments of the orchids, presenting the beauty of the flowers in a natural way.
