That's an ostensibly beautiful butterfly. Does this forest in China have a lot biodiversity of various exotic looking butterfly species ?

Thanks. This forest park would provide a better chance for visitors to spot this endemic butterfly compared to other areas in China. As temperature was still low in March, there were not many butterfly activities in the park yet. In other months, people will visit this park for birdwatching.
