White pear blossoms crawl all over the mountains in Sichuan province's Cangxi county in early March. And they add charm to the already polychromatic landscape featuring golden rapeseed flowers, green wheat and florid peach blossoms.

Many visitors travel to Cangxi to feast their eyes on the natural beauty that usually kicks off the spring travel wave.

Since 2003, the local government has hosted 15 pear blossom festivals in March, where distinctive local folk culture shows, gourmet food events, and runs in the wilderness have been held.

The pear blossoms cover some 10,000 hectares this year. And, local paper-cutout art and fishing festivals have also been held to enliven the visitor experience.
