Ginkgo Viewing Guide for December in Chengdu

Ginkgo Viewing Guide for December in Chengdu

It's December, and the ginkgo trees in Chengdu are turning yellow. I previously compiled a ginkgo viewing guide, but the locations were scattered and not comprehensive. This time, I'm introducing a city walk route with 9️⃣ spots for ginkgo viewing. The locations are densely packed, creating a strong autumn atmosphere. 👉🏻Route: Qingyang Palace - Huanhua South Road - Caotang East Road - Huanhuaxi Park - Du Fu Thatched Cottage Main Entrance - Baihua West Road - Baihuatan Park - Jinli West Road - People's Park 🍂The entire route is about 5 km. From Qingyang Palace to Huanhua South Road is about 400 meters, and you can choose to bike or walk. The route from Huanhua South Road to Baihua West Road is lined with ginkgo trees, most of which have already turned yellow. 1️⃣Qingyang Palace: This has always been one of the places to view ginkgo trees in the city. The ginkgo trees in the scenic area turn yellow a bit later. 2️⃣Huanhua South Road: This street is next to the Sichuan Museum, and both sides of the street are lined with tall ginkgo trees. It's a great place for photos and worth a visit. 3️⃣Du Fu Thatched Cottage Main Entrance: A free spot for photos of red walls and ginkgo trees. The ginkgo trees on both sides of the road are lush and have started turning yellow. 4️⃣Caotang East Road is more suitable for a leisurely stroll alone. You might be surprised by a splash of gold at a corner. 5️⃣Baihua West Road: The ginkgo trees on both sides of the street are more lush. The two white stone arch bridges and the golden ginkgo trees complement each other, making it a great place for ancient-style photos. 6️⃣Baihuatan Park: The Tang Dynasty millennium ginkgo tree in the Ginkgo Square is a must-see. If you miss it, you'll have to wait another year. 7️⃣Jinli West Road: This street is near the covered bridge in Baihuatan Park, where the Jin River and ginkgo trees blend together. 8️⃣People's Park: The road opposite the Ginkgo Pavilion is lined with lush ginkgo trees, but it can be crowded.

Chengdu is turning yellow.

Chengdu is turning yellow.

As the "Heavy Snow" solar term approaches, the weather in Chengdu is not very cold, and the ginkgo leaves all over the city make the city look particularly beautiful. Chengdu is turning yellow... Whether it's the street trees or the parks, the rows and patches of ginkgo trees slowly turn from green to yellow, which is quite spectacular. The ancient ginkgo trees at Wenshu Monastery make the temple look more solemn and grand. The yellow ginkgo leaves in People's Park make the thousands of chrysanthemums look even more charming. The ancient ginkgo trees in Yanhuachi Park form a huge yellow "umbrella" in front of Dacheng Hall, which has become a popular spot for tourists. The ginkgo trees in Jiezi Ancient Town also add a beautiful scenery for people wandering around the ancient town. Even driving or walking on the street feels like being in a huge oil painting. Every year from the end of November to the beginning of December, Chengdu really turns yellow. Beauty is everywhere...

In Chongzhou, Chengdu, ginkgo trees grow through red walls, creating a beautiful scene.

📍Yanhuachi (Chongzhou) 🎫Ticket: CNY 8/person Yanhuachi is located in Chongzhou, Chengdu. It was built in the Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The name "Yanhuachi" means "picturesque scenery". The garden layout combines the beauty of the water towns in Jiangnan and the natural scenery of Sichuan. The pool, small bridges, corridors, and ancient trees complement each other, presenting the characteristics of "water scenery reflecting the garden, and the garden depending on the water". The garden has different natural beauty in each season. There are 12 famous scenic spots in the garden, such as "Lotus in the Pond", "Listening to the Spring", and "Flowing Water under the Bridge". Each scene is full of poetry. In history, many literati and poets have left poems, calligraphy, and paintings here. It is also one of the filming locations for the 1987 TV series "Dream of the Red Chamber". After years of precipitation, there are also many century-old trees in the courtyard. In addition, the carved flowers on the door, the auspicious beasts on the roof, the moss-covered lions in front of the door, and the Taihu stones are all very interesting and worth admiring. The ticket for "Yanhuachi" is CNY 8, which can be purchased on-site. There is a paper ticket. Now is the ginkgo season. The comments have the original picture, which is not much different. It is recommended to go early or at mealtime. Enter from the south gate, and the ginkgo trees are here. There are also Chongzhou Museum, Xiaodong Street (snack street), Fantaxi (new countryside), Yuantong Ancient Town, etc. nearby. By the way, there are many alleys in Chongzhou, which are somewhat similar to Jiangnan.

Chengdu Ginkgo Season | Share a Ginkgo Viewing Route in the City Center

Recently, the streets of Chengdu have been beautiful, and now is the best time to see ginkgo trees, as the leaves have basically turned yellow! From a distance, the streets have a very layered color, and up close, it seems as if there are many small yellow butterflies perched on the branches! I love it no matter how I look at it! 🍂Recommended route to see ginkgo trees in the city center🍂 Jinli Middle Road - Jinli West Road - Baihuatan Park - Baihua West Road - Huanhua South Road - Sichuan Museum Every year, I find my favorite scenery along this route and take photos. This route covers the area with the highest density of ginkgo trees in Chengdu. Jinli Middle Road and Jinli West Road are popular ginkgo viewing spots, Baihuatan Park has ginkgo trees from the Tang Dynasty, and Baihua West Road has an arch bridge that is perfect for taking photos of ginkgo trees. There are also many ginkgo trees along Caotang East Road and Huanhua South Road, and there are relatively few tourists, making for a great photography experience. The route ends at the Sichuan Museum. If you have time, you can also visit Huanhuaxi Park. Transportation: You can ride a shared bike and stop wherever you like, or take bus No. 35, which stops at most of the attractions!
