With a planting history of more than 1,400 years, Luoyang is now home to 24,000 hectares of the gorgeous flower. Aside from tourism, peonies bring other local economic benefits, such as being made into flower cakes or scented tea. The seeds can also be made into peony seed oil in the autumn. #BetterLife | China Plus Culture | Facebook
