Hangzhou Baita Park's limited-time spring flower viewing guide is now online: There's more than just cherry blossoms, but also crabapple flowers

March in Hangzhou is filled with blooming flowers, and there are many places to enjoy them, but Hangzhou Baita Park, which combines train tracks, miniature trains, the White Pagoda, cherry blossoms, crabapples, and peach blossoms into one internet-famous check-in spot, is quite rare. The end of March to April is the best time for flower viewing, which means this weekend is the last week. Please keep this Baita Park flower viewing guide handy. 1. Transportation: Get off at Shuichengqiao Station of Metro Line 4, exit B, and walk for over 500 meters. By bus: Take the 190, 124, or 308 to the Baitaling Bus Station. 2. Admission: Free 3.
