National Peach Blossom Day has an interesting connotations in Chinese Mythology.
A Chinese parable entitled The Peach Blossom Spring, also known as The Legend of Shangri-La, tells of escape from political unrest into a utopia of peace at the end of a river shrouded in peach blossoms. In this utopia, told through the journey of a lone fisherman navigating the flower laden river, the valley hidden by the peach blossoms emerges to show a civilization absent from the outside world where man and beast live in peace and harmony. When the fisherman leaves and returns to the real world, he tries in vain to find this perfect place lost in the peach blossoms.
Peach blossoms have come to symbolize an ideal society where personal differences, best seen in the divisions caused by politics, are abated.
