Over 3,000 wintersweet shrubs in Chongqing Garden Expo are in full bloom and will last for the next two months. Visitors can enjoy the flowers at the expo's west garden.
The wintersweets in the west garden are the earliest to be in full bloom. Others in the Bayu garden and modern garden will bloom during different periods.
The expo also launched featured activities to attract more tourists and to welcome the new year, including photograph spots, as well as dancing, acrobatics, magic shows and Sichuan opera face-changing performances.
John Edwards, the UK trade commissioner for China, praised Chongqing over its rise as a burgeoning center in intelligent manufacturing.
