Spring blooms draw admiring crowds in central China

Nature has put on one of its most spectacular displays in Wuhan, the capital of Central China's Hubei Province. Cherry blossoms are now in full bloom at the city's East Lake Cherry Blossom Park. The park is home to over 10,000 cherry trees and more than 60 varieties. The air is filled with spring's sweet scent while the park has become a sea of delicate petals. Every late March, Wuhan draws crowds of tourists and locals to enjoy the flowers. This year, it has enhanced visitors' experience with blossom-viewing boat rides, photography tours, and nighttime light shows that let visitors enjoy the beauty after sunset. The city has also tapped into the season's charms, offering cherry blossom-themed fashion, cosmetics and cultural products.
