From Guiyang, I chose to be at the gate of the White House, very close to the place where I lived. In fact, there is also a bus for 8 yuan. Today, the cherry blossoms are raining, but fortunately there are umbrellas for sale. There is also food. The bus parked outside, and the bus shuttle bus was free to buy a sightseeing bus for 30 yuan after entering. You can also buy it alone. You can not buy it. In fact, it is not far away. It is best to see while walking.
On March 24, 2023, we arrived at Pingba Farm Garden in Guizhou to enjoy the cherry blossoms. There was not much sunshine that day, but the cherry blossoms were beautiful. We stayed for 6 hours.
Inquired about the flowering period, in order to take into account the two seas of flowers ~ Pingba cherry blossoms and Bijie rhododendron flowers, arrived at the cherry garden in the evening on the 26th. After visiting the cherry blossom square. No. 27 continued to go deep into classic areas such as the observation deck. It was cloudy in the morning, and I left a pity to take pictures of cherry blossom island in the distance! But the road encountered cherry blossoms 🌸 rain, and the evening cherry blossoms also bloomed! Very beautiful! Very worth it!
The helicopter ride is still very interesting, not scary, overlooking the cherry blossoms is beautiful. It's just that the flight time is only 5 minutes, and the price of 600 yuan is not too high. The whole flight base was outside the cherry blossom garden, very desolate, waited for 2 hours before the staff arrived at the base, and finally took the plane for 5 minutes, resulting in a bad overall use. I hope to arrange the project itinerary more reasonably.
Pingba cherry blossoms are still very beautiful, but you need to master the time to go, and the strategy to go is to do a good job. When I first went around March 10, I followed the navigation and guided directly to the main entrance. The main entrance needs to enter the auxiliary road two kilometers in advance to reach the nearest to the gate. The parking lot 🅿, I didn’t take the auxiliary road and was detoured to the super large parking lot across the road 🅿. It was a bit far from the scenic spot. The weather was bad that day, there was light rain, and I walked for a long time. There was a shuttle bus at the gate. I didn’t see it. The result was a long time before I arrived at the scenic spot. The cherry blossoms were beautiful and they were all white. It is when the blooming. If you drive from Guiyang at noon, it takes an hour to get here. Friends who want to come to play need to start earlier, because the scenic spot is too big, you can go and see the Japanese variety of cherry blossoms 🌸, I heard that it is pink, Due to the weather, I will return after four o'clock in the afternoon. I will write here first and continue to share the beauty of Pingba cherry blossoms next time.
Went today on March 21. There are not many people, the whole organization is OK. The attitude of the staff is also good. Self-driving can take a free shuttle bus (10 minutes drive) to the visitor center after parking in the No. 1 parking lot. You can take the car or walk (1.5-2 kilometers) to see the flowers. There are not many flowers today. I was a little disappointed after reading it. Compared with the advertisement, I realized that the advertisement was originally P. Flowers are sparse, there is only one kind of white, and the flowers are small, not as beautiful as the blooming in the park. Look at the photos below. It's really "not to regret, it's more regrettable to go"
