Cherry blossoms in the aesthetic eye

Spring Cherry Blossoms in Beijing are always a favorite among other species of flowers for citizens and tourists alike, partly because of its rarity and partly due to its swiftness. The short extant life of the pure and delicate blossom covers just seven days. The capital's Yuyuantan Park is a popular venue to view cherry blossoms with species domestically-cultivated or introduced from Japan. CRI reporters, together with contributing photographer Allen GY have framed the cherry blossoms at their prime with an aesthetic eye. [Photo:CRIENGLISH.com/Lin Lu]
