When will the northern cherry blossoms bloom in 2022? Where can I see Dalian cherry blossoms?

Spring is beautiful, but it is also short-lived. In a flash, March passed, and April slipped away for another week. We can't catch spring, but we can freeze the beauty of spring. In spring, the cherry blossoms in the south have ended, while the cherry blossoms in Dalian have just begun!

1. When do northern cherry blossoms bloom? Northern cherry blossoms generally bloom at the end of March, and some varieties bloom in early April or early April.

2. Where to see cherry blossoms in the north? The vigorous cherry blossom viewing craze has brought the romantic atmosphere of spring to the extreme. The cherry blossoms in the south have quietly withered, while in the north, the cherry blossoms in Dalian, a coastal city, are blooming in the wind, and a brilliant picture of pink, light yellow and light green nature is unfolding.

At the beginning of April, Longwangtang Sakura Garden and Lushun 203 Sakura Garden were all bright pink, announcing the beginning of spring. Yingkeshi Botanical Garden is full of cherry blossoms, and a large area of tulips is stacked on top of each other. It will be as beautiful as Van Gogh's paintings, and at first glance it is reminiscent of the sea of flowers in Hokkaido.

The weather in early spring and the temperature at the seaside are just right. Picking stones to watch the sunset in Xinghai Park and riding a bicycle to blow the sea breeze on Binhai Road have become the most enjoyable enjoyment. And this will be the off-season, and there will be no bustling crowds. It is easy to contract the beach. If you visit at the end of April and the beginning of May, you will still have a chance to see the vast grassland, the pens for cattle and sheep, and the scattered cabins in Sanhuan Ranch, giving you an illusion of crossing the Inner Mongolia prairie.

/Getiaogou Xinghua Village/

Early April

At the beginning of April every year, the first flower is the apricot flower in Getiaogou, Dalian. It is a secluded village far away from the urban area, which is more suitable for driving. Every spring, countless photographers come here because of the apricot blossoms in the village. The apricot trees here are wild and planted by the villagers themselves. There are even centuries-old apricot trees on the mountain, the highest of which is as high as three stories. This year's flowers are still almost 60%, and this week should usher in its most beautiful appearance.

Address: Getiaogou at the foot of Daheishan, Jinpu New District, Dalian

Late April to mid-May

After the cherry blossom season has passed in many popular cherry blossom viewing places in China, the cherry blossom garden in Dalian Lushun 203 scenic spot will usher in its "highlight moment" from late April to mid-May every year. The growers here come from nearly 30 cherry blossom varieties at home and abroad, including China Sakura, Japanese Early Sakura, Eight Sakura, Mountain Sakura and Korean Yellow Sakura. It is the largest and most complete cherry blossom garden in Northeast China. Moreover, when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom every year, the "Cherry Blossom Festival" will be held here. If you just catch up, you can enjoy thousands of cherry blossoms in a garden romantically.

Since late April.

When you arrive at Ingersoll Botanical Garden, you will find that the colors of spring are brought to the extreme here, as if you had broken into the scene of a fairy tale picture book. In particular, Hokkaido has the same cherry blossom sea, and Taiziwan also has the same tulip flower sea, where you can enjoy the spring without being crowded. After May, there will be more flowers here, and all kinds of flowers are in season in summer, and the Sanhuan Ranch is nearby, so the two scenic spots are suitable for playing together.

/Rhododendron daheishan/

End of April

Every year in the middle and late April, the rhododendrons in Daheishan are in full bloom, and the wild rhododendrons are mainly distributed in the eastern hillside of the main peak and the upper part of the southern valley, which are all over the mountains and plains. This is a favorite hiking spot for locals to enjoy spring. Getting up early to climb the mountain, sunrise, sea of clouds and pink and purple flowers all over the mountains have become the most beautiful scenery. Early May is the best time if you want to see the rhododendron forest all over the mountain completely dyed and enjoy the more colorful rhododendron sea.

3. Other scenic spots recommended/Binhai Road/

In Dalian, you can travel by car, on foot or by bus along Binhai Road, and you can visit almost all the places in Dalian where you can see the sea.

Binhai Road, with a total length of 40 kilometers, starts from Xinghai Square in the west and ends at Haizhiyun Square in the north, running through dozens of scenic spots. Haiyun → Bangba Island → Shizao → Fisherman's Wharf → Tiger Beach → Beida Bridge → Yanwoling → Fujiazhuang → South Gate of Forest Zoo → Xinghai Square. Even if you just walk aimlessly along the coastline, you can get countless scenery by accident.

/Xinghai Square/

Xinghai Square is an unmissable stop, where you can see all the romantic life scenes of a seaside city. Flying seagulls, leisurely pigeons, vast sky and blue sea, people enjoy a comfortable life. Not only can you enjoy the cross-sea bridge and the first-line seascape, feed the seagulls and wait for the sunset, but you can also watch the music fountain after dark.

. There are also rich entertainment facilities around, such as Xinghai Bay Bath, Amusement Park, Convention and Exhibition Center, etc. By the way, the TV series Eye of the Storm, which was broadcast a while ago, was also filmed here.

/Fujiazhuang Beach/

The bathing beach in Fujiazhuang is relatively small. Usually only local people will come. If you want to find a quiet place with few people to see the sea, you can choose to come here. March-May is the best season to see the sea here. The temperature is neither too hot nor too cold, and you can also feed the seagulls at close range.

Address: Fujiazhuang Park, No.53 and No.69 Binhai West Road

/tram/

The earliest tram in Dalian appeared in 1909, and its history is almost as long as this city. Dalian is also the city with the most tram lines in China. For Dalian people, trams are business cards, memories and even life. Therefore, when you come to Dalian, you must not miss the opportunity to experience the slow-paced life of the city by tram.

Remarks: At present, there are only 20 1 and 202 buses, and there are many kinds of vehicles. Only 20 1 has a green tram.

/Russian Style Street/

Dalian also retains a Russian-style street, and 38 buildings in the Far East in the pre-Belarus era, including Dalian Art Museum, Dalian Institute of Shipbuilding Industry and Dalian Natural Museum, are all ancient buildings with a history of 100 years. The whole Russian street is actually not long, about 500 meters, selling all kinds of specialties, handicrafts and Russian goods, full of exotic customs. Here, you can really "pretend to be in Russia" without going abroad.

4. Dalian Delicious/Abalone/

Dalian abalone is mainly Haliotis discus hannai, which is known as the highest seafood, so you must try this rare seafood when you arrive in Dalian. Dalian abalone is tender, clear and firm after eating. Whether it's original steamed, fresh soup or thick oil braised, it's memorable.

/sea urchin/

Sea urchin has a very grounded name in Dalian, called "thorn nest", which is also very vivid. Eating sea urchins in Dalian belongs to Xiaoping Island, and purple sea urchins produced in Changhai County are the most worth a try. Mature sea urchins are ginger. Whether it is eaten raw, steamed eggs or soup, it is fresh and delicious, with a hint of seafood.

April-June is the most fertile season for Pipi shrimp every year. Shrimp at this time, the meat is tight and elastic, even the brain is full of oil, Dalian people have plenty of ways to do it, salt and pepper, spicy, steamed, brine ... let go of your stomach and eat!

Jixiangyuan Dalian Sigh seafood restaurant

Jixiangyuan is a local time-honored brand in Dalian, featuring all kinds of seafood and northeast dishes. I generally have no resistance to such old shops. Their sea urchin tofu is a dish that I think comes for nothing without tasting it. The tofu in the stone pot is soft and rotten, and the soup that absorbs the taste of sea urchin is mixed with rice. I call it "sweeping rice"!

Address: Huang Xuan Building, No.813 Changjiang Road.
