spring in china . . . great wall

The Great Wall of China (Chinese: 萬里長城; pinyin: Wanli Changcheng) is the collective name of a series of fortification systems generally built across the historical northern borders of China to protect and consolidate territories of Chinese states and empiresagainst various nomadic groups of the steppe and their polities. Several walls were being built from as early as the 7th century BC by the ancient Chinese states;some of these were later joined together by Qin Shi Huang (220–206 BC), the first Emperor of China. Little of that wall remains. Later on, many successive dynasties have built and maintained multiple stretches of border walls. The most currently well-known of the walls were built by the Ming dynasty (1368–1644).

Apart from defense, other purposes of the Great Wall have included border controls, allowing the imposition of duties on goods transported along the Silk Road, regulation or encouragement of trade and the control of immigration and emigration. Furthermore, the defensive characteristics of the Great Wall were enhanced by the construction of watch towers, troop barracks, garrison stations, signaling capabilities through the means of smoke or fire, and the fact that the path of the Great Wall also served as a transportation corridor.(wikipedia)

the main goal of the visit . . .

The Great Wall of China, one of the greatest wonders of the world, was listed as a World Heritage by UNESCO in 1987. Just like a gigantic dragon, it winds up and down across deserts, grasslands, mountains and plateaus, stretching approximately 21,196 kilometers from east to west of China. With a history of about 2,700 years, some of the Great Wall sections are now in ruins or have disappeared. However, the Great Wall of China is still one of the most appealing attractions all around the world owing to its architectural grandeur and historical significance.

spring in china . . . cherry blossoms

The local blossoms are bound to bloom sometime around the end of March into early April, but the exact peak bloom varies year to year.

Basically cherry peak bloom lasts just for a breeze of about a week or so. But it takes about half a month for the cherry blossoms to go from just buds to brilliant flowers through disappearing and being taken over by green leaves. (tour-beijing.com)

we really scheduled the trip for this season . . .

So generally, the cherry blooms appear around the last week of March through the first week of April. But the  exact peak bloom largely depends on the weather in previous weeks and months. Warmer, sunnier weather tends to generate an earlier bloom. Long and cold wintry weather delays the peak bloom.

No one guarantees the timing of the blossom  peak bloom. In Beijing, most people schedule travel plans or cheery blossom visit based on the official announcement for the opening of the annual Yuyuantan Cherry Blossom Festival.

Yuyuantan Cherry Blossom Festival is the largest of this kind in the northern China. The festival is run by Yuyantan Park Administration with the main venue at Yuyuantan Park.

There are about 2000 cherry trees of over 30 different species, many of which were gifts from Japan when the two countries re-opened diplomatic ties in the 1970s. The lake is also well know for boating. You are able to cruise from the lake to Summer Palace.

What is unique about the cherry blossoms in Yuyuantan Park is that it generally has two kinds of cherry blossoms – Early Blossoms and late blossoms. (tour-beijing.com)

When I went to the great wall last Nov, I was disappointed at how many people, but maybe they're also disappointed yo see me there. But I'm still glad that I had this once in a lifetime opportunity to be there. .
