Peony vibe: A Caozhou peony blossoming with ancient romance

01:23

Caozhou, the ancient name for what is now Heze City in east China's Shandong Province, is where the peony isn't just a flower – it's a living legend of beauty and myth. Florists once offered rare peonies to emperors. General Li Ji brought imperial garden peonies to the people. Guyu sacrificed himself to save the flowers, leaving a lasting tale. This time, we admire peonies and hear their stories.
