Zhuxiandong (竹仙洞) Park, Zhuhai (Part 1)
The weather last Saturday is warm and sunny. So off I got to Zhuxiandong Park in Nanping to check if the cherry blossoms are still present.

The arc that leads to Zhuxiandong Park. This is the landmark you will be watching for coming from the street.

Continuing your way from the arc near the street you will encounter this gate and ticket counter. Ticket cost CNY10 per person.
To my dismay I cannot see any trace of pink blossoms on the trees. Looks like the flowering period for this year is over. So I decided just to roam around the park and take photos of anything interesting. This park is one of the major attraction of Zhuhai especially on Spring Festival, the time the cherry blossoms are in its peak. Aside from the cherry blossoms, this place is also famous for its stone carvings, stone statues of famous personalities in Chinese folklore, altars of various Chinese idols or deity. Going to this park is also like communing with nature because of trees and bamboos along the trails. Numerous gazebos can be found around the place for a relaxing rest and chat with friends.
