The secret garden in the afternoon, blending the romance of Dali into every detail

When the afternoon sunlight in Dali turns gentle, the secret garden at Boxinyunshe MCA is staging a grand aesthetic show of "nature and culture dancing together"✨

Casually pick a bouquet, with bright pink chrysanthemums and sunny yellow roses blooming at your fingertips. Behind you is a lush green lawn and ferns, with a pebble path winding into a secluded spot. Every step feels like stepping onto the pages of a fairy tale🌿 Look up, bougainvillea cascades like crimson clouds over the stone railing, intertwining with the vintage architectural lines. Sunlight filters through the leaves, casting golden spots that dance on the petals. Who could resist pressing the shutter at such a scene?

Shift your gaze to the building, where the Chinese-style flying eaves look even more elegant against the blue sky. The rooftop greenery and red flowers grow freely, making the white walls and black tiles appear full of life🌳 In that courtyard, twisted bonsai, lush shrubs, and colorful succulents layer in a staggered arrangement, while hanging vines pour down like a green waterfall. For a moment, you might think you’ve stumbled into a private botanical garden~

The most stunning part is the waterside area, where wooden lattice windows cast symmetrical reflections in the pond. Stone lanterns stand quietly beside the ripples. A gentle breeze passes by, and the shadows of trees, flowers, and buildings gently sway on the water’s surface🎐 Find a quiet corner to sit, watch the sunlight refract into sparkling waves on the glass balcony, and listen to the rustling of leaves in the distance. At this moment, you can only feel the pleasure of "stealing half a day of leisure from life"—this is probably what it feels like~
