A good but short visit on a sunny day for cherry blossoms
I was part of a foreign tour group who believed this place would offer an internationally acclaimed and spectacular site for viewing of cherry blossoms around late March this year. We were a little let down as the cherry trees were not packed enough along the lake side and the bridge where cherry blossom photography was best. Though the parts of the sakura garden in Mo Shan of East Lake were more packed with cherry trees but did not have a lakeside and a wide open blue sky which would make cherry blossoms more photogenic, the individual Japanese cherry blossoms were in very good shape and use of good camera woudl ensure top quality close-up flower shots. This sakura garden was a much more superior site for viewing and taking photos of cherry blossoms than Mulan Qingliang Village where only very the sparsely located Chinese cherry trees were found on the next day of my Wuhan trip. My visit to this sakura garden proved a much better experience with relatively better matching between what was expected and what were heard beforehand, what could have caused less spectacular cherry blossom sightings and what I actually saw. There were a few ladies who were getting photographers' attention prolongedly on my day of visit. Some of them were in Japanese national dress and carrying a traditional Japanese umbrella so as to make the photos more professional in theme and richer in composition and colours.
