Introduction: Xingqing Palace Park was built from the ruins of the Xingqing Palace of the Tang Dynasty, is the largest urban park in Xi'an, but also the oldest historical and cultural heritage park in China, every time the peony blooms, the peony under the Agarwood Pavilion of the Xingqing Palace is a grand scene of the park.
As early as the Tang Dynasty, peonies were widely planted in the Xingqing Palace, and peonies were more appreciated during the kaiyuan period of Tang Xuanzong, which led to the history of Li Baiyong's Qingping and Yang Guifei's drunkenness. On the peony table in the southwest corner of the Agarwood Pavilion, "Noble Concubine Drunk", "Lotus-like Lotus", "Kunming Nightlight" and other colors of peonies bloomed, and the splendid embroidery was piled up. More than a thousand lotus-wrapped peonies on the peony slope in the north of Tingbei are soft and graceful, and the peony boutiques of 8 colors such as white, red, pink, purple, green, black and blue in the peony garden in Tingdong are red.
In the Tang Dynasty capital chang'an, the situation of planting and viewing peonies was extremely prosperous, and Bai Juyi said that "flowers bloom and fall for twenty days, and the people of a city are crazy." Pi RiXiu "fell red and began to spit out fang, and the good name was called the Hundred Flowers King." The world is unparalleled, the first fragrance in the independent world."
