GUIYANG, China, March 10, 2023 /Xinhua-AsiaNet/--

News from the Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of Guizhou Province 
reveals that a Rapeseed Flower Festival will be held from 11 to 13 March in the 
northeastern city of Tongren, Guizhou Province, southwest China.

Spring is in full bloom everywhere. And farmers in Guizhou Province are not 
only turning rapeseed into edible oil, but also into paint. In Bijiang 
District, Tongren City, and Pingba District, Anshun City, farmers have painted 
the most enthusiastic look of spring with blossoming rapeseed flowers.

They even hold a rapeseed flower festival to celebrate spring. Who doesn't love 
festivals in spring? Especially spring is a beautiful and intoxicated season. 

People can shuttle through the sea of flowers to find the hidden ancient 
peoples, visit the unique villages scattered like stars among the flowers, chat 
with the locals, taste local food and tea, and try barbecue camping and farming 
practices. These experiences will offer people a different life and a different 
view.
     
Guizhou is home to world natural heritage sites of Fanjing Mountain, 
Huangguoshu Waterfall and the prestigious Maotai liquor. Although they are far 
away in southwest China, they are linked with the rest of the world through 
high-rise bridges. Despite its geographical remoteness, Guizhou is actually an 
easily accessible region. To those who are just starting a journey to find the 
mysterious Garden of Eden in eastern China, the rapeseed flowers of Guizhou are 
a must.
