The 19th China Qintong Millennium-old Camellia Flowers Festival took place in the Jiangyan district of Taizhou city – located in East China's Jiangsu province – on March 17.
The iconic 10.2-meter-high camellia tree in Jiangyan's Qintong Ancient Town was planted during the Song Dynasty (960-1279) and bears hundreds of thousands of flowers when in full bloom.
The event featured the launch of a rural tourism festival, along with the introduction of "special love to special you" wedding-themed activities.
