On April 5th, the 39th Peony Culture Festival will be held in Luoyang. At this time of the year, tourists from all over the country come in an endless stream to witness Kao.
Peony, also known as Grain Rain Flower, has the reputation of being a rich flower and the king of flowers. It is regarded as a symbol of wealth, auspiciousness, happiness and prosperity, and is the national flower of our country. "The peony flowers in Pin Guan are all fragrant, and the situation is that there are more kings in the meantime, and the four colors become Baise, and all colors are fragrant." Song Dynasty poet Shao Yong's Ode to Peony vividly interprets the elegant and dignified face of peony.
Peony is not only gorgeous in color, elegant in appearance, but also full of fragrance, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. Peony petals can be steamed wine, called peony dew wine, which tastes mellow and peony can also be used as medicine. The flowers are mostly white, and the root bark is the best, called peony bark, which cools blood and removes blood stasis, and warms the poison to remove spots. Peony doesn't last long, usually 10 to 15 days, but it's this short time that makes you appreciate the beauty of "Yao and Tai are unparalleled under the moon, and spring is the first fragrance in the world".
Peony has a legend. According to legend, Empress Wu Zetian drank wine and wrote poems on snowy days. Drunk, she wrote an imperial edict: "I will swim in the Ming Dynasty Garden, so that spring will come quickly, and the flowers will bloom overnight, so don't let the breeze blow." Flowers dare not disobey and bloom on time, but peony does not move. In a rage, the queen banished her to Luoyang. Although this is only a legend, its authenticity is hard to find, but it vividly reflects the noble character and unyielding personality charm of peony. Peony has won the love of countless people in Luoyang, not only because of her graceful flowers, but also because of her absolute beauty.
Now when it comes to peony, you will naturally think of "Luoyang Peony is the best in the world". Peony has become synonymous with Luoyang. He and the Millennium imperial city are * * * prosperous, * * prosperous. Absolute beauty has conquered all the people and friends in the world with its elegance and generosity. What are you waiting for? Come to this city with infinite passion, and take advantage of the warm wind in April to appreciate the charm of Kao!
