“大家好，我是白爱康，来自立陶宛。听说2024济南花朝节开幕了，让我们一起去看看花神、花海和人海吧！”

　　“Sveiki, mano vardas Akvilė, esu iš Lietuvos.Hey guys, my name is Bai Aikang from Lithuania. I heard that the 2024 Flower Festival in Jinan has opened. Let's go to see the Flower Goddesses and the Sea of flowers and people!”

　　花朝节起源于春秋时期，节日习俗初步形成于晋代，唐代明确以农历二月十五为花朝节。相传北魏夫人的弟子女夷善于种花养花，被后人尊为“花神”，并把花朝节附会成她的节日。这个时节，玉兰花、迎春花、连翘花、樱花、紫叶李、榆叶梅、美人梅都在花期，值得一赏。

　　The Flower Festival originated in the Spring and Autumn Period(from 770 to 476 BC.), and the related customs were initially formed in the Tsin Dynasty(from 266 to 420 AD.). In Tang Dynasty(from 618 to 907 AD.), it was designated as a festival on the 15th day of the 2nd lunar month. According to legend, Nv Yi, a disciple of an emperor’s concubine in Northern Wei Dynasty, was good at planting and raising flowers, and was respected by later generations as “Goddess of Flowers“. The Flower Festival was then attached to her festival. In this season, magnolia, jasmine, forsythia, cherry, purple plum, elm plum and beauty plum are all in bloom and worth a visit.

　　花朝节处处浸润着文化的气息。除了赏花之外，还有各式各样的国风游戏和琳琅满目的春日市集。民俗非遗区、美食区、国风区也各有特色。

　　The Flower Festival is full of cultural atmosphere. In addition to viewing the flowers, there are a variety of Chinese style games and dazzling spring markets. The folk heritage area, the gourmet area, and the Chinese crafts area,each has its own characteristics.

　　“因为济南，我第一次知道了花朝节，真的太有趣了，不仅好看好玩还好吃！繁花盛邀，不负春光，让我们一起相约花朝，一起赏花吧！”

　　“It is in Jinan that I get to know the Flower Festival for the first time. It’s really interesting, because there are good views and projects to have fun and delicious food to eat. Let's get together and enjoy our time here!”
