The azaleas of Mulan Yunwu Mountain are blooming.
The red and bright rhododendrons bloom all over the mountains, lighting up the mountains. Every year, when I see such a grand sea of flowers, I will be shocked, and I can't help but sigh, nature is really good!
Mulan Yunwu Mountain is located in Huangpi District, Wuhan City, about 90 minutes' drive from the city center. The scenic area covers an area of 25 square kilometers and contains more than a dozen rolling peaks, with the highest peak being 709 meters above sea level.
Now, more than 10,000 acres of rhododendrons are in full bloom on three hills, and the flowering period is expected to last until the end of April.
Wild rhododendrons
Such as a sea of flowers and waterfalls splashing all over the mountain
△ Although I have seen a lot of Reuters videos on the Internet, I will still sigh when I really arrive at Mulan Yunwu Mountain and see the sea of wild rhododendrons covering the mountain, which is so beautiful.
In other places, most of the flowers are based on the plants, but in Mulan Yunwu Mountain, the scale of the azalea sea is calculated by the mountain.
The sea of flowers stretches on the mountain, and the fairy will probably sigh when he sees it, which is worthy of the April day in the world.
The mountains are full of wild rhododendrons.
Walking in the mountains, you will find that the rhododendrons here grow wildly, the flower trees are not tall, about a meter or so, in the shape of shrubs, prostrate on the mountains, growing in cliffs and stone crevices.
Mulan Yunwu Mountain has always hidden red wild rhododendrons, but most of them are blocked by big trees, after transplanting big trees and other means, there is now what we see, three mountains have bloomed more than 10,000 acres of rhododendrons one after another.
△ Wild rhododendrons seem to be tenacious, but in fact they are difficult to grow artificially.
△ Wild rhododendrons like acidic soil, afraid of dryness and waterlogging, too little sunlight is not enough, but also have a certain altitude, and there are also requirements for temperature differences.
In fact, after you come, you will find that there are more than 3 mountains in the azalea sea here.
From the middle of the mountain, you can see that the green slopes in front of you are scattered with red, and the large pine trees cannot completely block the bright colors of the azaleas.
Sit on the side of the road and rest, and as soon as you turn around, you can see a sea of azaleas spreading through the pine forest.
There is a hillside with dazzling red azaleas, but there are no tourists inside.
The staff of the scenic spot told us that this is a newly developed rhododendron mountain, Huazhou Mountain, which has begun to transplant the big trees in the mountain, with an area of about 2,000 acres of flowers, and is expected to open for tours next year.
It is expected that there are 18 days left in the flowering period
Staggered peak to enjoy the flowers, feel the best
The three major flower-viewing areas of Mulan Yunwu Mountain are mainly distributed in 3 mountains:
"Huayu Mountain" is about 200 meters above sea level, the flower sea area is about 3,500 acres, the earliest flowering period, at the end of March has entered the full flowering period, and now it has begun to wither; (here is the farthest from the entrance of the scenic spot, about 9 kilometers)
"Flower Sea" is about 400 meters above sea level, the flower sea area is about 4,000 acres, and it is now in full bloom;
"Huayang" is about 700 meters above sea level, the flower sea area is about 4000 acres, the latest flowering period, is expected to enter the full flowering period in mid to late April; For friends with average physical strength, it is recommended to take a sightseeing car + cableway up the mountain, which is more labor-saving).
△ There are winding wooden plank paths and viewing platforms in the sea of flowers, and rhododendrons build a beautiful dome that can be walked through, but some sections of the road have low flower branches, so you need to bend down.
△ Rhododendron in the mountains, very easy to shoot, everywhere there is a sea of flowers background.
Now to go to Mulan Yunwu Mountain, it is recommended to go straight to the "sea of flowers" where the azaleas bloom best, and go from the entrance of the scenic spot and walk for 40 minutes.
: From the entrance of the scenic spot, follow the signs, walk along the asphalt road around the mountain to the Sichaling and turn right, and directly arrive at the entrance of the "Flower Sea" walking trail, the walking trail winds in the sea of flowers, and some sections of the flower branches are low, you need to bend down and return to the original road after enjoying the flowers.
You don't need to take a sightseeing car, the scenery of green mountains and green waters along the way is infinite, and you can walk around and have a picnic in the sea of flowers along the way, which is full of fun.
△ Scenic sightseeing car around the mountain, 50 yuan/person, each person can be brushed 6 times a day.
In mid to late April, the highest altitude of the "Flower Ocean" enters the full bloom period, and you can enjoy the flowers in the sky on the ropeway, which is a better experience.
In April, the "Flowers in the West" azalea debuted, of course, you have to go out and enjoy the stunning colors of the world.
In addition to the wild rhododendrons in the mountains, Magnolia Yunwu Mountain has also created a flower-viewing avenue of about 8 kilometers, with more than 300 kinds of artificially planted rhododendrons, and you can see yellow, green, white and other uncommon rhododendrons, which are expected to enter the full bloom period at the end of April.
