Major exhibit to showcase horticultural wonders


Four different routes for visitors to choose from
Organizers of the Beijing International Horticultural Exhibition, to be held from April 29 to Oct 7 in Beijing, suggested four routes for visitors at the 30-day countdown ceremony.
The routes, connecting hundreds of pavilions and collections of plants inside a more than 500-hectare site, aim to provide a visual feast for visitors, according to the tourist service bureau of the event.
The four routes are named "Journey of Discovery", "Garden of Family Love and Love of Gardening", "Fresh Horticultural Tour" and "Brief Riding Tour".
On the "Journey of Discovery", visitors can spend a whole day exploring various types of plants, admiring pastoral scenery and experiencing the majesty of nature.
The "Garden of Family Love and Love of Gardening" route is designed for families. Families can enjoy the cultures of different countries and experience the history of Chinese civilization. This route helps children to appreciate unique horticultural achievements and the charm of plants from all over the world.
The "Fresh Horticultural Tour" is targeted at young people. Walking along the trails, they can enjoy the world's horticultural landscape and stop by any herbs, fruits or vegetables they are interested in, savoring the time and tide of Chinese culture.
The "Brief Riding Tour" is a half-day tour. Visitors ride on electric vehicles shuttling between various scenic sites. They will be able to see a huge collection of plants, flowers and the eye-catching pavilions fast and easily.
