Nighttime Trading Market - The Pulse of Asia's Flower Capital
This is the soul of Dounan. Every day from dusk until late at night, the main venue is bustling with people's voices and brightly lit. Flower farmers, flower merchants, and buyers are walking shoulder to shoulder, with constant voices of inquiries, inspections, and transactions. Cars of fresh flowers, freshly harvested from the fields and still carrying dew, are rapidly circulating here. The transactions here directly determine the window displays of many flower shops across the country and even Asia the next day. Being immersed in it, you can most intuitively feel the circulation speed of flowers as "fresh futures" and the intense beating of commercial pulse.

The huge electronic clock jumps in reverse, and the purchaser presses the bidding button in an instant, determining the fate of millions of flowers.

Here, flowers have evolved from agricultural products to carriers of artistic materials and lifestyles.
