  • Nanjing Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum Scenic Area is a wonderful resort during the winter to appreciate a good variety of flowers. Many tourists and photography lovers would love to come around, relishing the stunning beauty and sweet fragrance of the flowers. Entering the Wenwu Square Gate, the ancient red walls and glazed tiles against the background of the dotted golden buds are the gift from the mother nature, and a must-go during this seemingly bleak winter.
  • In the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum Scenic Area, the wintersweet flowers here have quietly bloomed. It is said that the flowers bloom usually on leafless branches, but sometimes, particularly in warm climates, on branches clad with a few persisting leaves. The sun shine, casts a veil to the flowers which are tender and delicate. Breeze blowing, faint fragrance drifting away, people feel relaxed and happy. Some buds around are embracing their own blooming in a few days.
  • Gardeners at the scenic spot explained to people that wintersweet usually starts to blossom after the leaves fall off, but because of the short duration of cold weather this winter, the wintersweet trees are still accompanied by some leaves and also flowers that are very sensitive to changing temperature.
  • Chimonanthus praecox, commonly known as wintersweet, is a deciduous shrub. The fragrant flowers bloom in winter so people usually call it La Mei, which means flowers blooming in the twelfth month of the lunar year.
