As spring unfolds, Nansha district of Guangzhou – capital of South China's Guangdong province – is one of the best places at the best time of the year to appreciate fiery red kapok flowers.

As the the only area in Guangzhou to view both sea and flowers, Nansha – which embraces visitors with its vibrant coastal charm and innovative vitality – is inviting folks from all around the world to come and enjoy the beauty of spring.

Looking out from the Intelligent Valley Super Dyke, the kapok trees are said to bloom like flames. Along the coastline, they harmonize with the shimmering waves of the Jiaomen River.

At the tip of Hengli Island in Pearl Bay, the Kapok flowers bloom abundantly with their petals bright and entrancing under the sun.

Following the Jiaomen River, the flourishing flowers are to be seen everywhere. Under the kapok trees, modern new cityscapes coexist harmoniously with Nansha's maritime sector while the flowers dance in the breeze.

The Pearl Bay Bridge arches over the waves, with cargo ships shuttling back and forth beneath it, in a tableau framed by the kapok flowers.

The streamlined architecture of the International Financial Forum Convention Center stands in harmony with the flowers. In Nansha, the kapok trees and the sea narrate a beautiful springtime tale.

This idyllic scene in the district is said to encapsulate the very essence of spring and the interplay between nature, modernity and maritime heritage – making it an enchanting destination for locals and visitors alike.
