Chrysanthemum is the flower in Kaifeng now. Every year from 10 to10/month, chrysanthemum exhibitions will be held all over Kaifeng.

Rose is the city flower of Zhengzhou. Although it is not as elegant as peony or as elegant as chrysanthemum, it is known as the "queen of flowers", which is adaptable, more grounded, more close to the people and deeply loved by the people.

Zhengzhou is the capital of Henan Province. As early as 1983, the rose became the city flower of Zhengzhou, and 1984 held the first Zhengzhou Rose Fair in Bishagang Park.

Xinyang City is located in the hinterland of Dabie Mountain, with beautiful scenery and pleasant scenery. The mountains and plains are covered with azaleas, which is endless, like a picture scroll.

If which city in Henan province is like a southern city? It is estimated that Xinyang is the only one, because it is known as the thoroughfare of three provinces, and it is a famous landscape city. It is located at the southernmost tip of Henan Province, on the broad north-south dividing line (Qinling Huaihe Line) in China, and is known as "Jiangnan, with the Yangtze River in the north".
