A Brief Introdution
The Chaoshan Hill Scenic Area is located 29 kilometers northeast of Hangzhou, The hill covered in a sea of mume blossom, which since the Tang Dynasty (619-907) has captured the hearts of many spring holidaymakers.

With the name Chaoshan Hill, literally meaning a hill surpassing other hills, it is no wonder that it is higher than all the hills around. Not only recognised as one of China’s top three resorts for enjoying mume blossom, Chaoshan Hill is also home to two ancient mume trees, whose roots date back to the Tang (618-907) and Song (960-1279) dynasties.

Why visit Chaoshan Hill Scenic Area
Chaoshan Hill is one of the three traditional places to view plum blossoms in east China south of the Yangzte River and is known poetically as the Sea of Fragrant Snow. The plum trees on Chaoshan Hill are noted for their unique shapes and two of China's five ancient plum trees still surviving are found here -- Tangmei dating from the Tang Dynasty (AD 618-907) and Songmei from the Song Dynasty (960-1279).
