Spring is Calling: A Guide to the Canola Flower Fields in Zhuantang and Fuyang

If you’re looking for a spot to catch the canola blooms without the tourist crowds, Zhuantang and Fuyang are your best bets. The fields are at peak bloom right now, and since fewer people know about these spots, the flowers haven’t been trampled over.

You don’t have to hike far to find them. Here are the specific locations:

· Near Tongjian Lake: Take Bus 539 or 594 and get off at Renqiao Station.

Canola flower fields in Fuyang
Fuyang offers a more rustic backdrop for your photos. The area around the Qingjiang Village Committee is blanketed in yellow, as is the area near the Xintong Village People’s Congress Liaison Station. If you are looking for that classic aesthetic of bright blossoms against traditional stone walls and grey-tiled roofs, the canola fields in Dongziguan Village are an absolute must-visit.

Outfit Tips for Canola Blossom Photos:
Beige, white and light blue are all great color choices. Think about the scene around you: green stems, bright yellow flowers, a sky that’s streaked with blue and white.

White and beige won’t clash with the background and naturally echo the white clouds overhead. Light blue pairs beautifully with soft yellow as a gentle contrast, while also picking up the color of the sky. Put together, the whole look feels fresh, airy and very “spring in the canola fields”.
