In April, the peach blossoms in Jingshan Temple in Fang Fei began to bloom, and the reason why the peach blossoms opened late.

The reason why peach blossoms bloom late is that the difference between mountain climate and plain climate leads to the difference of flowering time, and the factor that affects peach blossoms late is temperature.

Dalin Temple is located in mountainous or remote areas, with high altitude and low temperature, and its meteorological conditions are not as stable as those in plain areas. This leads to the great difference between the mountain temple environment and the plain environment, which is more vulnerable to climate change. Peach blossoms have strict requirements on climate and sunshine time, while mountain temples are mostly in cold areas or often affected by rainy weather.

These climatic conditions will affect the flowering time of peach blossoms, making them relatively late. Peach blossoms in Shansi Mountain Temple bloom late, which is mainly caused by environmental and climatic factors. The sight of peach blossom "blooming late" is even more precious and rare, which also adds the unique charm of Shanxi peach blossom.

Shen Kuo went up the mountain to see the story of "Peach Blossom in Mountain Temple"

The story of Shen Kuo going up the mountain to see peach blossoms tells that when Shen Kuo was a child, the teacher read a poem by Bai Juyi, Peach Blossoms at Mountain Temple in Early April, to the students in class. After the teacher finished reading, Shen Kuo asked the teacher.

"April is the end of the world. Why did the peach blossoms at the Temple of the Mountain begin to bloom? Isn't this very contradictory? " "Well, class is over," said the teacher. After class, this question has been swirling in Shen Kuo's mind. When the students saw Shen Kuo Jr. thinking, they discussed it together.

"The peach blossoms on earth have withered, but the sideburns have opened. That's because immortals live in the mountains. " One of the children said. "Monks live in the mountains and should be people!" Forget it, let's go to the mountain by ourselves.

The next day, Shen Kuo and his party went to explore the mountains. After some thinking and discussion, Shen Kuo finally understood the truth. The reason is that the temperature on the mountain is lower than that on the mountain, so the arrival of spring on the mountain will be later than that on the mountain, so the peach blossoms on the mountain have all withered and are still in full bloom.

I remember reading this poem when I was a child, but I didn't have the spirit of exploration. All I remembered was words. For this poem, for me, it's just that I can recite seven songs, and Shen Kuo Jr. has the ability to think independently. It is because of Shen Kuo's independent thinking ability that he became a scientist. It is this spirit of getting to the bottom of the matter that knowledge can grow.
