Shili Hetan | 10 Kilometers of Wetland River Beach Overflowing with Spring

| 10 kilometers of wetland river beach overflowing with spring. ◽️Despite the 15-day forecast of overcast and cloudy skies, Guiyang's March weather is proving difficult to predict. I've been longing for a sunny afternoon, and today, I finally got my wish.

◽️Shili Hetan is part of Huaxi National Urban Wetland Park, the first national urban wetland park in Southwest China. Covering an area of 2.19 square kilometers, it includes diverse ecosystems such as rivers, marshes, river beaches, ditches, and rice paddies, and is home to many rare plants and animals, as well as unique cultural attractions.

◽️Walking south from the north gate, from the north entrance to Lingbo Diecui, from Lingbo Diecui to Wagu Huatian, and from Wagu Huatian to the Buyi ancient village... the faint fragrance of plum blossoms, a touch of spring color, the snow-white pear blossoms that refuse to compete with spring, the cherry blossoms in full bloom, the falling cherry blossoms, the jade-like magnolia flowers standing proudly on their branches, the fragrant winter jasmine in full bloom, and the fiery papaya flowers swaying in the wind... Whether I can name them or not, or even if the app can't identify them, in this season, on the 10-kilometer wetland river beach, the spring colors are overflowing, and the spring spirit is endless.

◽️The rapeseed flowers you're looking forward to haven't bloomed yet, and your carefully prepared fishing spot hasn't attracted any fish... Perhaps the regrets of what has already withered won't bloom again in spring. But look at the spring flowers hanging on the branches, they don't care about the impermanence of the world, they only know that when the time is right, they bloom to their fullest, with the greatest sincerity, leaving no regrets... If there's nothing here, then let's just enjoy a branch of spring.

◽️I heard that it has seen too much of human nature, so it simply became light itself. Even if it's too weak to illuminate many people, it can still attract those who seek light. Maybe, as long as the flowers keep blooming, there will be endless beauty everywhere, regardless of spring, autumn, summer, or winter.

◽️Have the once blooming flowers in your heart bloomed again?
