The best time to take pictures of rape flowers is when the drizzle stops, the rape flowers are hung with water drops, and the color is the most bright and moist.

One is Yuanshan flower viewing platform in qingshizui Town, and the other is Nanshan opposite to the cement plant. Here you can have a panoramic view of rape flowers in haomenchuan, Lenglongling and gangshika snow peak. The photos will have beautiful scenery in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and the background is excellent. The second is Xianmi forest area in the East, where there are not only beautiful rape flowers, but also primeval forest and Xianmi forest Rice Canyon, a variety of color blocks interweave, color is particularly rich. Third, rape flowers are clumps, very short. Taking photos in the sea of rape flowers is more suitable for sitting down or lying down.
