Missing the magnolias at Changchun Temple in Wuhan in March? Don't worry, I've got you covered!

Wuhan's magnolias are quietly blooming, and I took the opportunity to visit Changchun Temple. Although the cloudy day added a bit of a challenge to taking photos, the red walls of Changchun Temple, which have their own filter effect, paired with the blooming magnolias, created a truly captivating atmosphere!

After exploring the entire Changchun Temple, I found that the two magnolia trees to the right of the entrance had the most abundant blossoms. Up the stairs, there's a perfect spot for photos, and people were lining up to take pictures. I have to say, the photo results are still greatly affected by the weather. If you want to take beautiful photos, I recommend visiting on a sunny working day.
