The park, adjacent to Hongfeng Lake, has 233 hectares of cherry blossoms and looks like a colorful painting with its red and white intertwining petals.

Measures have been taken to enhance the park: staff members implement traffic control on roads and ensure the park's orderly operation to enhance tourists' experiences; food, viewing, activity, and entertainment stalls meet tourists' diverse needs; and garbage and public toilets are cleaned promptly, ensuring a comfortable environment for enjoying the beautiful scenery.

The rural tourism flower-viewing seasonal boom around Hongfeng Lake has started early this year, driven by the flow of visitors to the cherry blossom park.

The blooming cherry blossoms have attracted tourists from all directions, transforming Qingzhen's natural resources into economic growth.
