Spring is coming! We can see another round of flowers blooming. The peach blossom(桃花) is one of those flowers. It usually blooms in March and April.

If you want to see peach blossoms, you can go to Pinggu in Beijing, Nanhui in Shanghai or Longquan in Chengdu. But the most special place to go is Nyingchi in Tibet. Under the blue sky, white snow covers green mountains. At the foot of the mountain, there are a lot of pink peach blossoms.

Chinese people love the peach blossom. Many people write poems about it. People usually compare(比作) the peach blossoms to beautiful young women. A famous sentence goes as, “In this house on this day last year a pink face vied; In beauty with the pink peach blossom side by side.” The peach blossom is like the flush on a shy woman’s face.
