Luoyang, a city in central China’s Henan Province, is famous for its peonies which are now in full bloom, tens of thousands of butterflies have travelled there all the way from Yunnan province to China’s National Flower Garden.
Nestled in this greenhouse inside China’s National Flower Garden is the home to over ten thousand butterflies. They are literally all over the place, on the flowers, and on people.
"I’ve never seen so many butterflies. And they come in all shapes and sizes, it’s so beautiful."
There are more than 20 different species inside this butterfly garden. And it seems they feel quite at home in this environment, and it’s not just the flowers they are interested in.

"It’s an amazing experience. To have a butterfly on your wrist. Feels like heaven."
Since a butterfly’s life cycle is only about ten days, personnel at the garden have taken measures to ensure that visitors have a great experience.
"We also raise pupas, so that there’ll be enough butterflies in the garden, and so visitors can enjoy interacting with them." said Yu Xinyu, Butterfly Breeder.
The garden will also host an exhibition to introduce butterfly culture. Visitors are invited to witness the birth of the butterfly as it exits its pupa stage, and takes its first flight.
