Beijing Botanical Garden has witnessed an influx of about one hundred thousand visitors over the weekend.

 

Though some renowned flowers, such as pink peach blossom and tulip, are yet to be in full bloom, the fluctuating weather last week helps prolong the vitality of plum blossom, which often withers in early April.

 

The annual peach blossom festival and internationally renowned flower show kicked off on March 22 in the park in western Beijing. It has attracted more than 80 thousand people on the weekend since then.
