Xi'an Duqu Taoxibao Village: the place where the story of "Peach Blossom with a Human Face" takes place
Spotting period: end of March to mid-April
Spotting location: Fancheon Taoxibao Fort in Chang'an District
Taoxibao Fort is located in the center of Fancheon in Xi'an's Chang'an District, more than 10 kilometers from the Tang Dynasty city of Chang'an, with beautiful scenery and sweet peaches. It has beautiful scenery and is rich in sweet peaches. Especially in March, the fall of the colorful, along the village of the creek is covered with peach blossoms, only see the peach blossoms do not see the water, so it is called Peach Creek. In the Sui, Tang, Ming and Qing Dynasties, this is a good place for literati and noble relatives to enjoy spring. To this day, when the spring, warm flowers bloom, the spring is still a constant stream of people to enjoy the spring.
According to the Tang Dynasty's Meng Cheese Man's "This Poem" and the Song Dynasty's "Taiping Guangji", during the Tang Dynasty, the peach gardens around the Taoxi Fort were very beautiful. There was a young man named Cui Gu, is Boling (now Ding County, Hebei Province) people, handsome and beautiful, outstanding literary talent, came to Changan, the capital of the Tang Dynasty to participate in the examination for the scholar, the results fell short of the mountain. Because of the long distance from home, they sought to live near the capital, study, and prepare for the next year to re-examine. Qingming Festival, Cui Gu alone, enjoy the spring tour to the city south of Fanchuan, walked to Fort Peach Stream, see a Zhuang family, thatched houses, peach and plum, lush, flowers, fragrant, intoxicated, can not help but excuse the name of the thirst for drink, went up and knocked on the wooden door. A long time, only to see a young woman open the door to answer, turn into the house, hands holding a bowl of water to hand. Cui Gu saw her appearance beautiful, graceful, and the courtyard of peach and plum flowers reflect, a moment of dumbfounded, mesmerized. Until after drinking the water, the woman has turned back to the house, he reluctantly exit the courtyard door, disappointed and return. The woman from the doorway to see him out of love, the same frustration, if lost.
Over the past year, Cui Gu has been living in Chang'an and studying hard to prepare for the exam. Another Qingming Festival, Cui Gu was thinking about the woman in Taoxi Fort, so he visited her again. Only to see the yard full of peach blossoms is still, but the door is hung with a copper lock. He was very sad that he couldn't find her. So he wrote a poem on the door: "Last year today in this door, the face of the peach blossoms reflect each other red. I don't know where the face has gone, but the peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring." After signing his name, he turned away sullenly.
Turning his eyes to ask, and after a few days. Cui Gu unknowingly came here again. Only to see the wood door open, the courtyard out of the gusts of crying, hastened to go forward to ask. There was an old man with his head bowed in tears, and when he saw him, he opened his mouth and asked, "You are Cui Gu, right?" Cui Gu nodded his head and answered yes. The old man couldn't help but cry, "It's you who caused my daughter's death! She just passed away!" Cui Gu was shocked and did not know what to do. The old man then choked and recounted what happened.
It turned out that the young woman holding the water was the old man's daughter, nicknamed Tao'er, who had lost her mother when she was a child, knew poetry and literature, and wanted to marry a scholar so that she could devote her life to him. Last year, after the Qingming Festival, a sudden illness, mental trance. A few days ago, returned from the grave, found the poem on the door, more sick, do not eat, do not drink, confused and called the name of "Cui Gu". Cui Gu heard, went straight to the woman's bed, shouting: "Cui Gu is late! Cui Gu came late!" Maybe it is the heart of the heart, the woman slowly opened her eyes, without saying anything, tears flowed. The old man immediately betrothed his daughter to Cui Gu, and the lovers became lovers. The traditional dramas "Golden Bowl Hairpin", "Peach Blossom with a Human Face" and "Borrowing Water to Give a Hairpin" all talk about this incident.

FoPing: See the mountains filled with golden color in the home of dogwood
Surrounding period: late March to mid-April
Surrounding location: Foping, Hanzhong
No flower, plant, or tree elicits more emotion from the people of FoPing than the dogwood.
When the spring buds first blossomed, the dogwood has quietly blossomed, in the still pale and lonely mountains, golden umbrella-shaped flowers, like the peacock's crown on the golden plume, but also like a cloud on the hair of the step rocker. A flower, a branch, a tree, like a sky full of stars, but denser than the stars, more; a piece, a mountain mountain, like the first ray of spring light suddenly bright in the eyes of the first opening, but more intense than the spring light. Poking his head out of the annual festival, he saw it as if he heard the sound of melting snow and ice.
Among the purely ornamental and fruit-bearing flowers, Foping's dogwood is the closest to people. Rich and gorgeous peony is too rich and noble gas, the lotus is too unappetizing, noble and hidden chrysanthemum is too lonely, although they are very beautiful, but the distance from the ordinary heart always seems to be a little far away. Only dogwood flowers, gorgeous but not rich, showy but not the world, high but not bleak, and the distance from the heart is most appropriate, far not to drift, close not to stumble. In front of the house, the field, roadside ditch, slope bottom ridge, into the life of the Foping people, so that people are not too aware of its existence, but it is everywhere, all the time.
Cornelian cherry is not an ornamental flower, but the style of the field, but comfort farmers tired body; the farmhouse feelings, but clear dredge the triviality of the life of the peasant woman; the sweetness of the bees, but moisturize the long years in the mountains of the plain. Instead of a tree, it is a sincere, calm friend around, mutual family.
The pony-like spring "get to" the sound of hooves all the way through the rain, hibernation, equinoxes, Qingming, red peach, pink apricot, white pear ...... a crop of flowers fell and opened, opened and fell, the fragrance of dogwood on the hooves has never dimmed. Spring is really gone, dogwood flowers only to hide under the oval green leaves into a green bead, a hazy "green beads dropping tears drop towel" moving "Chu Chu", can not help but let people think about.
Relative to the flowers of the elegant, dogwood fruit is dazzling. Although the colors of autumn is colorful, not at all inferior to the spring, there are golden rice, yellow-orange corn, red persimmons ...... mottled autumn leaves, but still can not hide its luster. That a cluster, a string, a tree agate-like, heavy small red fruit, a piece, a mountain red as the morning sun, brilliant as brocade. It is drunk with the mountains, drunk with the river, drunk with every piece of Foping's heart, is undoubtedly the most moving a touch of autumn color. It's dazzling, if only because of the red splendor, that's shallow. It's dazzling, more in it is the farmer's hope of the year red - a year, it is the most important season of crops. Pick the fruit, peeling, drying, it becomes a flavor of nourishing yin and yang medicinal herbs. For the people of Foping, it not only nourishes their bodies, but also nourishes their lives when they sell it and exchange it for money.
Farmers planted dogwood, just for its fruit, did not expect it to dedicate more, not only nourish the body, nourish the life of the fruit, but also the flowers of the elegant, green leaves of the cool and a even one to make the ordinary day full of hope. In Foping, almost no one's growth has left the nourishment of dogwood. Leaving its economic nourishment, but also away from its nourishment as a traditional Chinese medicine, away from the flower of the potter. In this land *** with life, living together, long years, dogwood has been integrated into people's lives, blood, walking in the spiritual temperament of Foping people.
No flower is more poetic than the dogwood, there is no kind of fruit is more valuable than the dogwood! If you erase the golden color of the dogwood flower and the scarlet color of the fruit, this land will become monotonous and pale! (Wen/My name is Liangliang)

Transportation: West Han Highway to Foping; you can also take the bus to Foping in Shuisi.
