July is coming, the hot summer of Guangzhou city is lauching! Put your watermelon back into the fridge, today HACOS is going to show you some other good choices of seasonal fruits.
Zengcheng City , belongs to Guangzhou, has a regulation of holding a Litchi Festival at July every year since 1990. During the Festival, citizens can not only taste Litchi but also take part in many interesting activities , including traditional dance shows, sport shows, Photography & Books Exhibitions, product sales exhibitons, business meetings.
Talking about Zengcheng Litchi, peope will remind of the Green Litchi,which has a green line over its skin though it`s mature. That Green Litch is regarded as a precious variety for more than 400 years because of its wonderful taste.
Once upon a time , a Chinese emperor ordered his knights to carry fresh Litchi from hundreds kilometers away to the capital as an emergency, which made serveral horses exhausted died , and they even bulit a road for it. However, the emperor did that just becasue he wanted to please his imperial concubine who loved Litchi very much. From the history, we can see how delicous Litchi is.
Guangdong Province abounds with Litchi, but eating too much Litchi may cause throat and skin problems, so you`d better drink some light salty water after eating Litchi.
Cherry spreads over America，Canada, Chile, Australia, and etc in world scope, the main producing area in China is Shandong Province,Gansu Province and etc. The cherries we can see in Guangzhou are basically transported from far distance, so the price may be higher.
Probably many Chinese people may have a question that: what`s the difference between “Cherry”and “Yingtao”?
cherry
Actually, cherry is a imported vairety from America and Europe, the skin is dark red and thick.
But“Yingtao”is a chinese variety, its size is smaller, the skin is thin and bright. “Yingtao” has a history of 3,000 year in Shandong and Henan province.

Cherry is rich in iron element which can ease the anemia symptom.However, you should not eat too much cherry either, because overly otained some microelements of cherry may cause poisoning!
Peach is widely planted in China, Chinese have a tradition of treating peach as the symbol of longevity, people even call it “immortal peach”.
If Guangzhou citizens want to experience picking the peaches personally, you`d better drive to the Heyuan city, its Lianping county is called “the hometown of Yingzui Peach”. Lianping attracts lots of tourists there every year, people can see the Peach Blossoms covering the mountain in March, when July comes, the peach feast will be ready for the tourists.
Peach contains many kinds of vitamins, having an effect of easing constipation. But the sugar of peach is rich, so the Diabetics should not eat too much peach!
Pitaya is a typical tropical fruit , which was original produced in Central America and then be transported to the coastal regions of China through Taiwan Province. Pitaya is nutrient-rich and free from dieases & pests, so the farmer would seldomly use pesticide,making pitaya healthier.
Many people may wonder how pitaya grows, and the others who see this photo may feel amazing that:”the Pitaya is grown on cactus ! ”
Actually, the pitaya tree is just looks like the cactus, they are from the same plant family, but not the same variety. So , do not have any great expectations of your own cactus.
The biggest Pitaya basement is located in Zhanjiang city, the pitaya there is especially juicy, so pitaya fans may get there during the holidays.
Pitaya has a good effection on health, for expamle, curing cough and preventing constipation, but you should not eat pitaya with milk in any case!
Durian, regarded as the king of fruit, is the most famous tropical fruit. The Chinese durians are planted in Guangdong Province and Hainan Province, but the durians imported from Tailand and Malaysia are still the most delicous. Super durian fans even fly to those places to enjoy the durian feast each July and August.
Durian has unique odor, different people have different feeling. Some peple love it while some people can hardly bear it. The Cantoneses who love durian very much develope it to a perfect state. They not only use durian to make desserts, but also cook soup with its shell and pit.
Since the durian is fallen naturally when it gets ripe, so if you smell something alcoholic, that means the durian has gone bad , you should not buy or eat it!
Just enjoy yourselves with fruits this hot summer!
