A chrysanthemum show was recently held at the Daguan(grand-view) Park in downtown Kunming, Yunnan province, enchanting tourists and locals alike. 

25,000 pots of chrysanthemums were on display, and the 600 plus chrysanthemum varieties presented visitors a diversity of beautiful patterns and shapes: balls, tubes, flutters, treads and more. 

A Daguan Park tour is also highlighted by the Daguan Pavilion that is famed for its unparalleled long couplet by Sun Ranweng, a cultural celebrity in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). It is one of the most visited towers across China.
