2025 Latest Botanical Garden Chrysanthemum Exhibition Live Report

Sisters! Here’s a sneak peek from the front lines of the 2025 Hangzhou Botanical Garden Chrysanthemum Exhibition～As of 10.25, the setup progress is 50%, the grand landscape is just getting started, and many chrysanthemums haven’t bloomed yet. If you’re eager, you might want to wait a bit longer!
📅 Exhibition period: 2025.10.29-2025.11.23. The first wave of chrysanthemum seas this autumn—grab your friends and go!
The exhibition area is concentrated near Yuquan Yuyue, with 3 must-see highlights to note:
1️⃣ Inside Yuquan Yuyue: Childhood memories with the "Calabash Brothers" chrysanthemum sculptures
2️⃣ In front of Yuquan Yuyue’s main gate: The fairy-tale-like "Hobbit House"
3️⃣ On the large lawn: Instagram-style "Urban Balcony Scenic Cabin"
⏰ Key point! The best viewing period is mid-November when the chrysanthemums are in full bloom and truly spectacular, but it will also be the most crowded; for those wanting to avoid the crowds, early November is a great time to enjoy the scenery without the rush.
