To admire the magnolia flowers, come to this special park
From a meteorological perspective, Shanghai has not yet entered spring, but the city's flower, the white magnolia, is already in full bloom throughout the city. 'But for one branch worthy of jade, why need nine fields to start seeking orchids?' This line from a Tang dynasty poem is the origin of the name 'magnolia,' and China has a history of cultivating magnolias for over 2,500 years. In addition to the white magnolia, there are many other varieties in the Magnoliaceae family, such as the Yulan magnolia, the Lucky Red magnolia, the Yellow magnolia, the Purple magnolia, etc. Among them, the Spring-watching magnolia, also known as the Spring-welcoming flower or tree, is the earliest blooming magnolia and is known as the 'messenger of spring.' There are many places to view magnolias in Shanghai, but the largest planting area and the most numerous is the Magnolia-themed Park - Minhang Cultural Park. Minhang Cultural Park currently has over 1,200 magnolia trees of various varieties such as white, yellow, purple, and Lucky Red magnolias, distributed in ecological attractions within the park such as the Music Plaza and the Hundred Flowers Garden. Clusters of magnolia flowers resemble a flock of doves landing on branches or pure white snow hanging from the treetops. Visitors leisurely take photos and check in among the trees, enjoying the vibrant early spring scenery. Since the magnolia's blooming period is quite short, generally lasting about one week to ten days, those who want to see them should hurry. Additionally, nearby there are art venues such as the Minhang Museum, the Shanghai Style Art Gallery, and the Baolong Art Museum, which can be visited together on a weekend.
