The vernal season is also bringing more economic activities with spectacular natural views, and specially arranged events. Local scenic spots have wowed quite a good following.

In Tibet, a wild peach forest, each tree is over 100 years old, and there are over 1,200 of them. The same flower is also on the other side of China, in Zhejiang province. Tourists flocked here for the peak flower blooming period of 15 days.

Very beautiful. Today's weather is very good. The scenery is very good. The peach flowers are really beautiful.

In an ancient town in Yunnan's Dali, pear flowers are in full bloom. The oldest pear tree, over 600 years old.

Producing the pear fruits has never been a major industry here. The presence of the old trees is enough.

"Qifeng's pear trees have a long history. They first originated in the Ming Dynasty. The pear trees were kept in this wholesome way because we have put up a plate on all of the trees that are more than 100 years old to protect them," Shi Hesong, party secretary of Xiyi Town of Dali, said.

In China's south, rape flowers are definitely a sight to see. In Hunan province, a vast rape flower land is a feast for the eyes of cyclers.

"With tourism, now our rape flowers have become flowers of gold," Chen Mouchang, party secretary of Shimeitang Town of Changde, said.

In Xinjiang in Northwest China, it's apricot flower tourism season in Turpan, even a special tourism train was opened for it. And it's also about enjoying performances and food. This barbecue vendor had made over 1,000 yuan.

Over 50 thousand tourists from around the country are taking part in this "Tour to Xinjiang's First Spring." And Spring is also about bird watching. In Huichun in Northwest China's Jilin, over 100 thousand migrant birds have flown here from the South since March. It's close to the Sea of Japan, an ideal habitat for birds.

In Luonan in Shanxi Province, herons have lived on these two old trees for several hundred years. The large bird is on the endangered animal list. Experts say it's a rare thing to see them flying in groups.

This village is also seeing more and more spectators coming here for this spectacular view.

A season of life, and vitality.
