  The reporter saw in the visitors passage at the main entrance of Wuhan University at 10 o'clock in the morning of the same day, tourists who made reservations to enter the school lined up.

After showing the health code, measuring the temperature of the wrist, and swiping the ID card, the tourists enter the school in an orderly manner.

In the “green channel for anti-epidemic medical staff to enjoy cherry blossoms” in Ximen, a special volunteer service point for medical staff is set up, and volunteers are arranged to provide services such as guidance and explanation.

  Taking advantage of the half-day holiday of "March 8 Women's Day", Shi Jun, staff member of Wuhan Science and Technology Achievement Transformation Promotion Center, and more than 10 female colleagues made a special trip to enjoy the cherry blossoms.

Although I have come here many times before to see the cherry blossoms, this year Shi Jun has a sense of pride. "When the cherry blossoms bloom again, we have overcome the epidemic and wish Wuhan better and better."

  On the top of the cherry blossoms, overlooking the endless stream of tourists, Fan Hongjuan, a midwife in the obstetrics department of Hubei Maternity and Child Health Hospital, said with emotion, “I was busy fighting the epidemic at this time last year. Today I can calm down and admire the trees and flowers. I am very happy.” Fan Hongjuan has been with each other. Some doctors and nurses in Hubei have agreed to take them to the Yellow Crane Tower, the Yangtze River Bridge, and Zhiyin after they return to Wuhan in a few days.
