As summer arrives, phoenix trees (Delonix regia) are in full bloom across Guangzhou, including at the Zhou Clan Ancestral Hall (周氏大宗祠) in Nancun Village, Longgui Subdistrict, Baiyun District. In Yiyuan Garden (颐园), the vibrant red flowers of a phoenix tree complement the ancient architecture, while outside the garden, the blossoms against the blue sky create a striking scene. Tourists flock to capture the beauty of this 'internet-famous' flower.
