Luoyang is the hometown of peony in China and one of the birthplaces of peony in China. Luoyang peony is famous for its large flowers, bright colors, wealth and dignity. She began in Jin, flourished in Sui, flourished in Tang and flourished in Song. Since Sui and Tang Dynasties, Luoyang Peony has been introduced and cultivated in Tian Peng, Sichuan, Yancheng, Jiangsu, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, Haochuan, Anhui, Cao Zhou, Shandong, Shaoguan, Guangdong and other places, and now it has spread all over the Great Wall and the north and south of the great river. Luoyang Peony melts into the sea of China Peony and smells overseas. In 724 AD, China Peony was introduced to Japan; From 1330 to 1850, France was introduced. 1656, the Netherlands began to introduce; 1789, China peony was introduced into Britain, and more than 100 horticultural varieties were cultivated.

From 1826 to 1830, the United States was also introduced.

With the pace of the times, Luoyang peony has crossed the ocean and entered more than 20 countries and regions, becoming a link and bridge connecting the friendship of people in famous countries. Peony, also known as bone-burning peony, is related to Wu Zetian. In the Tang Dynasty, Wu Zetian visited Hou Yuan on a cold day. What she saw was freezing, flowers withered and everything was depressed. She was distressed: if only a hundred flowers would blossom overnight. I want to show the prestige of Wu Zetian. I don't believe all the flowers dare to disobey her wishes!

Thinking of this, she made an imperial edict in front of Baihua: Go to Mingyuan and report to Chunzhi at once. Flowers must be delivered overnight, don't wait for Xiaofeng to rush you! . When Wu Zetian's imperial edict came out, Baihua Fairy panicked and got together to discuss countermeasures. Some people say: In this severe winter, we shouldn't blossom. How do we do this? Some said: how can the imperial edict of Wuhou be violated? Otherwise, it will end in a tragic ending; Hua Xian was silent. They all witnessed the success and failure of Wu Zetian for me. What should we do? The next day, a heavy snow fell from the sky. Although the wind roared and the water droplets turned into ice, all huaxian dared not disobey their orders.

I saw that in the back garden, colorful flowers really braved the snow to open. Wu Zetian was very happy to see this scene. Suddenly, a desolate flower bed came into view, and Wu Zetian's face suddenly sank. What kind of flower is this? How dare you violate my imperial edict? At first glance, it's all peony flowers. Wu Zetian was furious after hearing this: immediately drive these bold peonies out of Beijing and demote them to Luoyang. Who knows, when these peonies arrived in Luoyang, they were buried in the ground casually and immediately grew green leaves and beautiful flowers. Wu Zetian was furious and immediately sent someone to Luoyang to burn all the peony flowers. The relentless fire reflected the sky, and the peony struggled and groaned painfully in the fire.

However, people were surprised to find that although the branches of peony were blackened, more than 200 famous foreign varieties such as Sun and Sun were introduced from Japan in 1994. Xiyuan Park Peony Garden: It is located at the junction of Nanchang Road and Jiudu Road in Luoyang City, formerly known as Botanical Garden.

Because the garden is located in Mangshan, the flowering period is later than that in the urban area, so visitors who come to Luoyang later can also enjoy the beauty of Luoyang peony. Luoyang Riverside Park: The Luohe River, which lasted for more than 500 years from Sui and Tang Dynasties to Northern Song Dynasty, has been managed by millions of working people, which has both the convenience of boats and the beauty of scenery. At that time, Luohe was surrounded by peaches and plums, surrounded by willows and covered with long bridges. The scenery is picturesque all year round. Especially the golden wind, summer, half-moon talk and autumn are poetic.

For thousands of years, the scenery of robins has made many poets linger. As early as in the Three Kingdoms, Cao Zijian said that he met a goddess by the river. He wrote an article entitled "Preferential Policies and Incentive Measures for Investment Promotion in the Old City". Moreover, Yang Jiong, Lu and Luo are also known as the four outstanding figures in the early Tang Dynasty, and they used to linger. In Tang Gaozong, Shangguan Yi slowly recited poems along the river bank. You can imagine how beautiful Robin's scenery is.
