In February, you can see plum blossoms and cherry blossoms; in March, rapeseed flowers and bauhinia variegata are in full bloom; in April, jacaranda and yutangchun bloom one after another. 🚗 Transportation guide • Public transportation: Guangzhou has a well-developed subway system, and many flower viewing spots are directly accessible by subway. For example, you can take Line 3 to Wushan Station for South China Agricultural University. For Linjiang Avenue, you can get off at Liede Station or Canton Tower Station and walk there. • Driving: There are parking lots around some flower viewing spots, but it is recommended to check the availability of parking spaces in advance as there are many people viewing flowers in spring. The roads near Baohua Road are narrow, and parking is not very convenient, so be cautious when driving. 📸 Photography tips 1. Use the foreground: You can use a blooming flower as the foreground, blurring the foreground to highlight the subject and create a dreamy feel. 2. Low-angle shooting: Squat down and shoot from a low angle upwards, with the sky as the background, to avoid crowds and highlight the lushness of the flowers. 3. Time selection: In the morning or evening, the light is soft, and the flowers appear more vibrant, and portraits have a better texture. 🌸Strolling through the streets of Guangzhou, the unexpected encounters with seas of flowers always bring joy. This city hides spring in its streets and alleys, waiting for you to discover it. Bring your camera and come to this spring flower event!
