Jacaranda: Kunming's dreamy purple spring will take your breath away

When the jacaranda blossoms, Kunming falls into a beautiful purple dream💜. The bluish-purple petals, like a soft dream, quietly fall on every corner of the Spring City...
🌸"Jacaranda Blooming Season"
The flowers usually bloom from mid-to-late April to mid-May, with a flowering period of about 2–3 weeks. Late April to early May is often the full bloom period, when the flowers are at their most abundant and dense.
🌸"Recommended Flower Viewing Spots"
📍 Jiaochang Middle Road (A must-go! Be sure to leave early!)
This is Kunming's most famous jacaranda viewing spot. Hundreds of jacaranda trees are planted along the approximately 2 km road, forming a "bluish-purple tunnel."👀 There is also a jacaranda theme park, which is a great choice for taking photos and enjoying the flowers.
✨Features: Try the popular jacaranda ice cream, and participate in cultural and creative markets and photography activities.
📍 Panlong River Bank (Oil Pipeline Section)
Hundreds of jacaranda trees are planted along the river bank, and the reflection of the flowers in the river creates a picturesque scene.🎨 We recommend taking a boat trip from Taoyuan Wharf to enjoy the romantic scenery of the flowers on both sides of the river.
