【大美广东】The Guangzhou red silk-cotton trees (red kapok trees) train ushers in spring!

开往春天的广州红棉列车

As the aphorism goes: "Red silk-cotton (red kapok) flowers look like coral, when these beautiful flowers bloom, they are more brilliant than the morning glow", for the Guangzhou people, spring is incomplete without kapok.

In March, Guangzhou's half sky has been dyed red by the blooming kapok flowers. Now, walking on the streets of Guangzhou, kapok flowers can be seen blooming, which look like rosy clouds over the sky. When the kapok is in full bloom, they are red but not tacky; when they wither and fall, the flowers remain red but not depressed, showing a unique painting of Lingnan.

At the Liede Bridge South Station of Guangzhou Haizhu Tram, while walking along the revolving stairs to the bridge, you can look down the tram and red kapok flowers. You can also appreciate charming kapok flowers blooming on the branches to make this spring green and vibrant. In the sun, when the tram passes under the red kapok, the scene becomes romantic and dreamy as if entering the 2-D world.

“十丈珊瑚是木棉,花开红比朝霞鲜”。广州人的春天，离不开木棉花。阳春三月，广州已被盛放的木棉花染红半边天。近日，走在广州街头，街坊随时可见熟悉的木棉花绽放，如漫天红霞洒满天际。木棉盛开时红艳但不俗气，落英时依旧火红不萎靡，绘出了专属岭南的画章。

在海珠有轨电车猎德大桥南站，沿着旋转楼梯登上猎德大桥往下就能俯看到有轨电车与红棉同框的画面。娇艳似火的木棉花朵缀满枝头，开得灿烂而热烈，呈现出一派春意盎然的景象。阳光下，当有轨电车与红色的木棉花下驶过，画面变得浪漫、梦幻起来，仿佛进入了二次元的世界。
