A total of 1.5 million tulips have bloomed at the Yuantuojiao scenic spot in Qidong, Nantong, Jiangsu province. A tulip flora expo was officially launched on March 20, the third session to be held since 2018.

This year's flora expo is larger in scale compared with previous years. Around 32 species of 1.5 million tulips have been cultivated, covering an area of 45,000 square meters.

Now is the best time to enjoy tulips, which come in a variety of colors such as red, pink, yellow and white, forming seas of flowers which sway in the wind.

Since it was first held in 2018, more than 1.4 million visitors have come to appreciate the colorful tulips at Yuantuojiao every year. 

However, amid the ongoing epidemic, only a limited number of visitors are allowed to enter the scenic spot every day. Residents who want to enjoy the beautiful scenery must make reservations online in advance.
