China Peony Garden
中国牡丹园
A large peony garden northeast of Heze's urban area, with open fields of peonies that are ideal for photographing sweeping flower beds.
The China Peony Garden lies on the northeastern outskirts of Mudan District. It is built on a peony growing base, and its vast peony fields stretch as far as the eye can see. The varieties are mainly Caozhou peonies, bred locally in Heze. The park also features peony culture exhibits and boardwalk viewing platforms, and during the blooming season it often hosts flower-viewing events and Hanfu gatherings. Admission during bloom is about 50-60 yuan, and a visit takes about 2 hours. It is about 8 km from the city center. During the blooming season, tourist shuttle buses run there, and it is slightly less crowded than the Caozhou Peony Garden.
