Souxing village recently became a tourist attraction when hundreds of osmanthus flower trees blossomed in Pingle county, Guilin.

The osmanthus flower trees have given the entire village a pleasant scent.

Among them, a pair of osmanthus flower trees growing together are especially eye-catching. The villagers' ancestors planted the trees more than 100 years ago. Standing 8 m tall each and shadowing more than 30 sq m together, both their trunks have diameters of 50 cm.

Locals use the osmanthus flowers to produce wines and candies every year.

Osmanthus flower trees blossom twice a year in southern regions.
