The annual Arbor Day is approaching. In order to let citizens and tourists know more about the ancient and famous trees in Hangzhou, every year on the eve of the Arbor Day, the West Lake Scenic Area will launch a series of tree adoption activities, inviting everyone to "adopt" the spring and protect the green nature, because the maintenance of ancient and famous trees is as important as tree planting.
Hangzhou has a profound historical heritage and is very rich in ancient and famous tree resources. What are the most interesting ancient and famous trees in Hangzhou? The Yunqi Bamboo Trail is second to none, and the variety and number of ancient trees here are among the top in the city. Walking into the Yunqi Bamboo Path, you can see many thousand-year-old trees - some are known as "the top ten most beautiful ginkgo biloba in Zhejiang Province".
1. Old ginkgo biloba trees that are more than 1,500 years old; There is also the Sweetgum Tree King, which has a lifespan of more than 1040 years, with a main trunk of 38 meters high and so thick that it needs to be hugged by three people.
In order to let people know more about ancient trees and get close to nature, this year Yunqi Bamboo Trail launched an ancient tree adoption activity, providing 5 ancient trees including thousand-year-old maple for everyone to choose from, and the adoption period is one year. It is hoped that through adoption, the public will be invited to participate in the protection of ancient trees and witness the story of time.
In addition, Baita Park, located in the south of the West Lake Scenic Area, is a modern park containing the relics of the railway industry and the cultural heritage of the West Lake, and it is very popular every year during the cherry blossom season. Patches of pink cherry blossom forests, full of romantic spring colors, attract everyone to check in. This year's tree adoption activity, Baita Park launched a cherry tree adoption quota, the adoption time is the same year, each adopter can not only get the adoption certificate, but also participate in the year-round rich maintenance activities, a lot of fun.
