Why Qionghua is one of the three treasures in Kunshan?
State-owned national flower, city has city flower. National flower and city flower are some famous flowers that people in a country and a city yearn for and are proud of. She is often a symbol of a country and a city, and can be regarded as the "image spokesperson" in Flowers. The 7th Kunshan Qionghua Art Festival is coming soon. In today's world, only Yangzhou and Kunshan have held Qionghua Art Festival. Yangzhou held the first Qionghua Art Festival in June 1988+00. Held every two years from June 199 1 and closed after June 1997. * * Held five Qionghua Art Festival. Since the first Qionghua Art Festival was held in April, 20001,Kunshan has held six Qionghua Art Festival in succession, with more and more contents, which is unique in the world. This is another "best in China" and "best in the world" created by Kunshan people under the leadership of the municipal party committee and municipal government, which deserves our pride. Therefore, when the seventh Qionghua Art Festival is about to open, I have a vision, hoping that the municipal party committee and municipal government can turn Qionghua into the city flower of Kunshan. Although Kunshan Qionghua is not as good as Yangzhou Qionghua in historical and cultural background, Kunshan Qionghua has its own uniqueness compared with Yangzhou Qionghua. Kunshan has ancient Qionghua in the world today. Known as the "King of Qionghua", the ancient garden Qionghua is about 350 years old, while the oldest existing Qionghua in Yangzhou, a Qionghua in Wang Xiaoyuan, is only 1000 years old, and it is located in the corner of the small courtyard, which is not as spectacular as Kunshan Qionghua, which is located on the main road of the garden. Kunshan Qionghua has its own unique ideas in layout. The predecessors planted the ancient Qionghua and the ancient Magnolia together, compared the beautiful Qionghua in Yuhuan to a peerless beauty, and compared the swallow-like Magnolia in spring to another stunning beauty, Zhao, which formed the whimsy and new pattern of "Yuhuan is the enemy". At this point, visitors can not only appreciate the charm of famous flowers, but also remember the beautiful scenery. Qionghua of Lin Ting Garden in Kunshan, at the centennial celebration of Lin Ting Garden last year, has formed an overall pattern of high and low contrast, land and water connectivity, ancient and modern connectivity and exquisite gardens. There are the world's most famous "King of Qionghua", lush Qionghua Garden, vibrant Qionglin, high-standard Qiongtai with Yushu and exquisite Qiongdao in the garden, which fully displays the panoramic view of Qionghua in Kunshan, a scenic spot in Lin Ting, and provides interesting "Qionghua Pursuit" activities for tourists at the Qionghua Art Festival every year. There are more than 140 Qionghua plants in Qionglin, and its scale is unique in the world at present. Qionghua in Kunshan not only has unique scenic spots, but also has spread all over the urban and rural areas of hometown through the efforts of Kunshan people for 28 years. More Qionghua has been planted in Peony Garden, Forest Park, Kunzhong Middle School and Wenfeng Middle School. Therefore, Qionghua in Kunshan is forming a good development trend of combining point with surface. Qionghua produced a special feeling and formed a beautiful complex in the hearts of Kunshan people. No flower can make Kunshan people feel excited, cordial and deeply rooted in people's hearts like Qionghua. People are proud of having such a rare and famous flower in their hometown. Qionghua is designated as the city flower, which is in line with public opinion. Some people may say that Qionghua has been designated as the city flower of Yangzhou. How can Kunshan designate her as the city flower? Actually, it is not. Not to mention the city flower, it is the national flower, and it is not a famous flower unique to one country. For example, the national flower of Chile and Nicaragua is lily; The national flowers of Bangladesh, Thailand, Guyana and Sri Lanka are all water lilies; The national flowers of Egypt and Tunisia are all lotus flowers; The national flower of Spain and Libya is pomegranate; The national flowers of Bulgaria, Iran, Iraq, Syria and the Czech Republic are all roses. The national flower does not need to be unique to a country, and the city flower can have the same flower in many cities. This phenomenon is very common in our country. The city flowers of Kunming, Chongqing, Wanxian, Hengyang, Jingdezhen, Ningbo, Jinhua and Wenzhou are camellia; The city flowers of Changsha, Shaoguan, Dali, Jiujiang, Wuxi, Jiaxing, Yuyao, Sanming and Dandong are rhododendrons; The city flowers of Xi, Hefei, Xinxiang, Lianyungang, Huangshi, Shiyan, Jingmen and Jiaxing are pomegranate flowers; The city flowers of Macau, Jinan, Xuchang and Zhaoqing are lotus flowers; The city flowers of Hangzhou, Suzhou, Guilin, Laohekou, Nanyang and Xinyang are osmanthus fragrans. The city flowers in Beijing, Kaifeng, Nantong, Xiangtan and Zhongshan are chrysanthemums; The flowers in Urumqi, Yinchuan, Lanzhou, Chengde, Shenyang and Kuitun are roses. And more roses. The city flowers in Nanchang, yingtan, Changzhou, Taizhou, Shashi, Yichang, Handan, Xingtai, Langfang, Suizhou, Sanmenxia, Dalian, Jinzhou and Weihai are Chinese rose flowers. The city flowers in Wuhan, Nanjing and Danjiangkou are plum blossoms. It is the peony flower known as the "national beauty and fragrance". Luoyang, Henan Province and Heze, Shandong Province have also been designated as city flowers, while Qionghua is only a city in Yangzhou as city flowers. From this point of view, it is reasonable and feasible to designate Qionghua as the flower of Kunshan City in many ways. Qionghua does have reason to become the city flower of Kunshan. I think that if Qionghua is designated as the city flower of our city, Qionghua's career will be bigger and better in her hometown Kunshan, and Qionghua will also add more charm to Kunshan. The Office of the Leading Group for the Collection of Urban Spirit in Kunshan issued the Notice on the Collection of Key Words, City Signs, City Trees and City Flowers in Kunshan, which is another inspiring good thing. As a member of Kunshan people and the discoverer of Kunshan Qionghua, I take this essay as a positive response to Notice. I hope my proposal can be recognized by the majority of Kunshan folks, and I also hope that some people and CPPCC members will formally put forward a proposal when the next Municipal People's Congress is held, so that Xianpa in Yuen Long and Qionghua in Wu Shuang can truly become the city flowers in Kunshan.
