Bidding farewell to the "Mouth of Truth", head Xia Yuxiang took everyone to visit the Trinity Church in Rome, Italy.

"The church was built by the French in 1495, and from the pair of bell towers and windows of the church, it is a Gothic building, different from the Baroque luxury and elaborate feel that is more common in Rome. ”

Qu Lihua looked up, she remembered it vividly, "Yes, when we went to France, we also saw a lot of French churches, the West attaches great importance to religion, will build a lot of churches, French churches and Italian churches are different, they have their own style, when we go to Russia, we see that the architectural style of Russian churches is also different, each country has its own different characteristics." ”

Meng Wenjie nodded, "Yes, some French churches are Gothic buildings, when we went to Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, France, what left me with a deep impression was the windows and the bell tower, the color of the windows is very beautiful, the towering church spire, very distinctive, and there are many literary works that depict the social background of the time, which can be preserved and let future generations understand the history, which is also very valuable." ”

The Spanish stone staircase that connects the church to the square is actually the highlight of the tour, this staircase has a curve, from the bottom to the top combines curves and straight lines, connected by graceful lines, and there is a flower stand in the middle, which is full of rhododendrons in spring, adding to the beauty.

"Wow, it's really beautiful, this church, I haven't heard of it before, I only know Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, France, and I'm not very familiar with Trinity Church in Rome, Italy, this time I came to see it, this church is still very beautiful!"

Head Xia Yuxiang smiled, "Girls like flowers, this flower platform is really well built, so many azaleas, it's really beautiful, oh, by the way, why do Italians like azaleas so much?

Oliver said: "The vitality of the rhododendron is very tenacious, and the flower language of the azalea represents the joy of love, and it is said that those who like this flower are innocent." ”

"There are many ways to prepare the soil for the cultivation of rhododendron, which varies depending on the cultivar, but it must have conditions such as loose, smooth drainage, good aeration, acidic soil, rich humus, and sufficient base fertilizer. ”

"Usually rhododendrons live in acidic soil will grow vigorously, if in alkaline soil, soon the yellow leaves will die of failure, rhododendrons are regarded as the indicator plants of acidic soil, humus is generally acidic soil, and pine leaf humus is the best, is the ideal cultivation soil for planting rhododendrons. ”

"The temperature is too high or too low, the rhododendrons are damaged, only under the right temperature conditions, can they develop and grow quickly and robustly, the climate of Italy is very suitable for the growth of azaleas flowers, so the azaleas here are in full bloom, red and gorgeous become a beautiful landscape, attracting a large number of tourists to take pictures. ”

Head Xia Yuxiang nodded, "I didn't expect that we didn't pay attention to azaleas in our country, but azaleas bloomed in Europe, which was beyond my expectations." ”

Oliver said: "China's national flower is the peony flower, graceful and luxurious, as well as the moon flower, peach blossom and other flowers, there are many varieties, competing for beauty, there are many Chinese flowers, so the rhododendron has not received large-scale attention, and the climate of Italy is more suitable for the growth of azaleas, the climate and soil are suitable for azaleas, so azaleas bloom in Italy and can be seen in many places." ”

Meng Wenjie asked curiously: "What is the national flower of Italy?"

Oliver replied: "Italy is a country in the south of Europe and the cradle of European culture, and the national flower of Italy is the daisy. ”

"Daisies have a wide variety of colors, there are white, light red, crimson, vermilion, purple and other colors, daisies have a long flowering period, can continue to bloom from spring to autumn, especially in the season when the weather is cold and the flowers are few, they can still grow and open vigorously, the flowers are small and exquisite, they are lovely, and have a high ornamental value. ”

"Italians are very fond of beautiful daisies, think it has a gentleman's style, so the daisies are designated as the national flower, in addition to azaleas, daisies are also very common in Italy, and azaleas, daisies are also very suitable for the climate and soil conditions here, these two flowers in Italy really bloom their own charm and charm, especially a large area, connected into a piece, more spectacular. ”

"As written in Muse's poem, so romantic, so affectionate!"

Oliver was in a mood and recited a passage to everyone.

"I love and say nothing;

I love, only my mental perception;

I cherish my secrets, and I cherish my pains;

I have sworn that I love him, and have no hope, but not without happiness,

As long as I can see you, I feel satisfied. ”

"Daisy is the incarnation flower of the beautiful forest spirit Bertis, who is a mischievous man full of vitality, so daisies represent vitality, and those who are blessed by this flower can also have an innocent and happy life. ”

"In addition to myths and legends, there is another kind of folklore about daisies in Italy, although the daisy flower may be very inconspicuous for many people, because it is very small, but it is also very beautiful, the moment the daisy blooms is beautiful, but also strong, it symbolizes the person who has been silently guarding you, if one day you encounter danger, he will be the first person to rush forward to protect you, this is the greatness of crush. ”

It is because of these two myths and legends that the daisy is endowed with a unique flower language and symbolic meaning, which is a desirable good life, many European nobles and social celebrities are very fond of daisies and azaleas, and they all plant daisies and azaleas in their mansions, and the Italian people also like it, often buy flower seeds, and plant them in their own yards, that is to say, from top to bottom, these two kinds of flowers have been liked and planted by the majority of people, becoming a sea of flowers. ”

Qu Lihua nodded, "The flower language of the daisy is always happy, the forbearance of love that cannot be confessed, the love hidden in the bottom of the heart, the poet is indeed very romantic, a lot of love, the poems written are intoxicating, look at it, it is so beautiful!"

Head Xia Yuxiang also agreed: "We can see the cultural heritage and historical connotation of a country through the national flower of a country, and we can also see the spiritual state of this nation." ”

Oliver nodded, "Yes, you can see the preferences of a nation from the national flower of a country, and you can also see the aesthetics of the country and the nation, as well as the concept and culture, as well as many related living habits, which are closely related, and many florists and scholars have studied them." ”

Xia Yuxiang said: "People like beauty, no one can resist the unique beauty of these beautiful flowers, I haven't found daisies and azaleas so beautiful when I was in China before, this time I came to Italy, it really makes me feel amazing!"

Qu Lihua smiled, "It seems that after I return to China, I will go to the flower market to buy a few pots of daisies and azaleas, which is really beautiful, and I will also plant a few pots on the balcony at home to enjoy and appreciate!"

"Haha, it's so beautiful!" everyone laughed.
