Laoshan in spring: A remote utopia

Every year, as the spring breeze brings warmth and the cherry blossoms bloom, the ancient villages hidden deep in the mountains and forests of Qingdao become havens of peace and happiness, as described by Eastern Jin Dynasty (317-420) poet Tao Yuanming (365-427).

With flowers blooming all over the mountains, the houses and rural paths nestled among the flowering trees are especially charming. Some cherry blossoms have already bloomed in Qingdao, and they are expected to be in full bloom by this weekend. This secluded and beautiful flower sea, with its profusion of blossoms resembling snow, is a sight to behold. Don't miss out on this breathtaking experience!
