Zhongshan Park
Qingdao Zhongshan Park's early spring cherry blossom viewing is long-standing and famous. There are about 2000 cherry trees, single and double, mainly single cherry trees. The varieties are mostly Japanese cherry trees, with more Japanese Yoshino cherry trees (single cherry trees). There is a 660-meter long cherry blossom street, with cherry trees planted on both sides of the road.
According to the Qingdao Professional Meteorological Bureau's mid-long-term weather forecast, combined with many years of observation and research on Qingdao Zhongshan Park Japanese cherry trees, it concludes that Qingdao Zhongshan Park Japanese cherry blossom early flowering period forecast.
Through long-term observation data and image comparison, influenced by the warm winter of 2019, our city's Shinan District's garden plant phenomena are significantly earlier than in previous years.
In March, the weather in the downtown area is rapidly warming. As of March 18th, the daily average temperature reached 7.2 degrees Celsius, with 206.3 degree days of activity above 5 degrees Celsius, and 71.3 degree days of effective temperature above 5 degrees Celsius, which are significantly higher than the average.
It is predicted that on March 27-28, our city's effective temperature above 5 degrees Celsius will reach 115 degree Celsius, the critical value required for Japanese cherry blossom opening, at which time a small part of the cherry blossoms (10%-20%) will begin to bloom, and on April 1-2, it will enter the initial flowering period, 12 days earlier than the average (April 12th), which is the earliest year of historical observation records of Zhongshan Park cherry blossom opening. On April 4-5, it will enter the flowering period, and Qingming Festival will be the best time for citizens to view cherry blossoms. After April 12th, Japanese cherry trees will enter the shedding period.In summaryThe best viewing period for Japanese cherry blossoms this year is April 3rd to 10th.
Subsequently, Zhongshan Park will enter the viewing period of Japanese late cherry trees (commonly known as 'double cherry trees'), with a flowering period that can last until the end of April 25th or so. The succession of single and double cherry trees will bring a 'garden sea' landscape to the island city in April – a spectacular sight.
Baiguan
Jiyongguan Road vicinity is the most concentrated place for Baiguan cherry blossoms, the sunlight shines on the old buildings, and is complemented by the blossoming white cherry blossoms on the branches – everything is perfect; and if it's a shedding season, when a cherry rain falls on the hundred-year-old mansions, it might give one a feeling of traveling through time.
