Thousands of acres of flower fields: Early spring hiking and flower viewing in Chongqing

Everyone knows about Tongnan's 10,000-acre rapeseed flower fields. A true springtime special! These manga-like fields are incredibly beautiful to photograph! Attraction #1: Chen Tuan's Hometown Rapeseed Flower Scenic Area in Chongkan Town, Tongnan District. While the flowers may have been a bit sparse a few days ago, now is the peak bloom time. Once a year, drive 1.5 to 2 hours from the main city and you can check in at the Chongkan Flower Sea Scenic Area, Chen Tuan's Hometown, inspired by Hayao Miyazaki's manga! While the scenic area isn't small, the scenery is similar across the board. Find a few photogenic spots. First, head to Chen Tuan Mountain and climb to the top for a bird's-eye view of the flower fields, perfect for some portraits. Second, walk to the pavilion at the center of the scenic area. From a high point, you can capture the feeling of being surrounded by rapeseed flowers. Third, a large Tai Chi pattern can be seen in the flower fields at the center of the area, which can be captured from an aerial perspective or by climbing Chen Tuan Mountain for a distant view. Fourth, there are daily circus and acrobatic performances, and boat trips are also available. 5. The train is also a great place to take photos, and you can even take a train to explore the sea of ​​flowers. It's quite relaxing! When taking photos, remember to wear light-colored clothes, a straw hat, a garland, etc. A long horn or portrait lens would be even better!
