The fragrance of osmanthus flowers currently permeates the entire Taizhou in Jiangsu province. Whether strolling through parks or walking down streets, the scent of osmanthus flowers is everywhere.
In the gardens of Taizhou, there is no shortage of osmanthus flowers. Different species of osmanthus are crowded together waiting to meet visitors.
In the 400-year-old Qiaoyuan Garden, on the east side of Sanfeng Cottage stands a century-old golden osmanthus tree, which is over 7 meters tall and has a crown width of nearly 8 meters. Its branches support it like a large umbrella covering half of the yard.

The osmanthus flowers in Nanshan Temple seem to have a Zen style, with delicate petals falling beside the ancient Buddha like a scene from a painting. Stepping into the temple to admire the osmanthus, one's heart instantly becomes calm.
If you don't want to go far, osmanthus flowers can be found in parks throughout the city.
At the east gate of Taishan Park, more than 110 osmanthus trees are planted in area of 2,600 square meters, which is the largest area in the urban scenic area.
