The pink blossoms blanketed the hillsides, the path was gentle with no steep climbs, and I could stop anywhere to take photos without having to fight for a good spot. When I got tired, I leaned against a tree trunk to rest, the wind carrying the fragrance of the flowers making even my breath sweet. The guide didn't rush me, and we strolled leisurely until evening. The sunset cast its glow on the sea of flowers, far more beautiful than any artificially planted flower forest. I was completely immersed in the fragrance, so comfortable I didn't want to leave.
