Peach Blossom Hometown, Longquanyi
桃花故里
10,000-mu peach orchards on the western slope of Longquan Mountain. Every March, the peach blossom festival turns the hillsides pink, making it Chengdu’s most famous spot for peach-blossom viewing.
Longquanyi is known as the “Hometown of Chinese Honey Peaches.” Peach Blossom Hometown lies on the Longquan Mountain slopes around Shanquan Town, where peach trees cover the hills. The International Peach Blossom Festival is held in mid-to-late March each year. When the trees bloom, the hillsides turn pink, and visitors can drink tea at farmhouse restaurants, go cycling and climb the hills. From June to July, visitors can pick honey peaches. Most scenic areas are free to enter, but traffic jams on weekends during blossom season are serious, so it is best to set off early. It takes about 1 hour to drive from downtown Chengdu, and you can combine it with Luodai Ancient Town and Danjing Terrace on the same day.
