Dali Wuben Flower Appreciation Journey | Coming for the Peach Blossoms, but Falling More in Love with the Rapeseed Flowers! (Including Guide)

Dali Wuben Village, a poetic and picturesque beautiful village. In the warm spring of March, the peach blossoms and rapeseed flowers of Wuben Village bloom successively over a thousand acres, making it a great place for flower enthusiasts! Originally attracted by the scent of the peach blossoms, I found myself even more captivated by the endless beauty of the rapeseed flowers. Wuben Village belongs to Julei Town, Midu County, Dali. The locals pronounce Julei as 'zuǒ' rather than 'jū'. 'Ju' means a ridge, and 'lei' means large. The name Julei Town means: a village under a large mountain ridge, which was written as Zuo Li in ancient times and later evolved into Julei. When searching for the best places to appreciate flowers in Dali during spring, 'Wuben Village' and its peach blossoms frequently caught my eye. Looking at the clouds and mist swirling above Wuben Village, and the pretty pink peach blossoms on the surrounding terraces, it's like a natural beauty straight out of a poem or a distant land, truly enviable. It is understood that 'Wuben Village' was originally named 'A Wu Bai', which in the Yi language means 'a place with many tadpoles'. Later, due to the village's hidden and misty appearance throughout the year, it was renamed 'Wuben Village'. Wuben Village boasts clear mountains, beautiful waters, fertile land, dense vegetation, moist air, and a pleasant climate. ✅ In March, the peach blossoms bloom, and the thousand acres of peach blossoms in Wuben Village also bloom successively, competing in beauty, together with the mountains and waters of Wuben Village, forming a beautiful watercolor painting, giving the impression of a charming mountain village like a paradise on earth. ✅ At the beginning of March, I drove to explore the beautiful countryside of Wuben, seeking and smelling the fragrance of flowers, and getting up close and personal with the peach and rapeseed flowers. While cultivating my sentiments through flower appreciation, I used my camera to record the beauty of spring here. ✅ The 6-kilometer road from Julei Town, Midu, Dali to Wuben Village has many winding mountain roads that require cautious driving. Wuben Village has two parking lots, with the higher one being larger and offering a panoramic view of Wuben Village, while the smaller one by the lower water pond is smaller. ✅ We arrived at Wuben Village at the beginning of March for a flower appreciation trip. We were originally attracted by the thousand acres of peach blossoms here, but the first thing that caught our eye was the large expanse of terraced rapeseed flowers in front of Wuben Village. The rapeseed flowers of Wuben Village, whether viewed from afar or up close, are very beautiful. The rapeseed flowers on the terraces are scattered in an orderly manner, with curved rapeseed ridges, and behind them, the high village of Wuben and the peach blossoms on the hillside, 'two flowers mismatched' create an endlessly beautiful scenery. ✅ Wuben Village tourist area, in previous years around International Women's Day, would organize a Peach Blossom Cultural Festival. As of early March this year, there has been no news about this, and it is unknown whether there will be a Peach Blossom Cultural Festival this year? ✅ We arrived at Wuben Village for flower appreciation at the beginning of March, and from the on-site tour, we found that this year's peach blossoms only bloomed in a few areas, with most of the hillside peach blossoms yet to bloom. We originally came for the beautiful scenery of the thousand acres of peach blossoms in Wuben Village, but what greeted us were sporadic peach blossoms in bloom. However, the rapeseed flowers here are also quite nice. Going on a flower appreciation trip with a relaxed attitude will be more relaxing and enjoyable.
