The peach is symbolic of longevity in Chinese Culture and said to have
been eaten by immortals due it ability to pass this virtue to those who
ate them. The queen would hold special events for the immortals to feast
upon the peaches. There is a Buddhist Monastary located in a magnificent
area referrered to as "Longevity Hill"; the whole area fills with peach
blossoms.
