2009 : Luoyang World Philatelic Exhibition - Peony Blooming Festival 洛阳世界邮展 - 牡丹花绽开时节

2009 : Luoyang World Philatelic Exhibition - Peony Blooming Festival
2009 洛阳世界邮展 - 牡丹花绽开时节

It was a double International event held in April, 2009 in Luoyang - the World Philatelic Exhibition and the International Peony Flower Festival . I was lucky to have the opportunity to visit Luoyang at the correct season - the Peony Flower Blooming Season. Everywhere in the park, the Peony flower was blooming. This was the first time I had ever seen the flower, although, I had heard of the name many a times and seen it on many Chinese watercolor paintings.

2009年世界邮展与国际牡丹花节同时在洛阳举行,洛阳随处是一片牡丹花海,非常壮观。这是我生平第一次看到牡丹花,之前也只闻其名,看其在水墨画里绽放的姿采,真不愧是花中之王者也!
