Diexi Songpinggou Red Leaf Feast

Accidentally stepped into a real-life fairy tale world✨ The autumn in Diexi Songpinggou, Maoxian County is truly stunning, with golden and fiery red forests covering the mountains under the blue sky and white clouds. Every snapshot looks like a blockbuster! 📍Attraction: Diexi Songpinggou 🚏Address: Diexi Town, Maoxian County, Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture ⏰Opening Hours: 8:30 AM - 5:30 PM (last entry at 5:00 PM) 🎫Ticket: 70 RMB/person 【Best Photo Spots】 1️⃣ Five-Color Pool: The pool water is as blue as if color-enhanced in autumn, with the surrounding colorful forest beautifully reflected in the water 2️⃣ Baishihai: You can take a boat ride, with spectacular views of mountains and forests dyed in autumn colors along the way 3️⃣ Shangbailahai: The walking trail is lined with red leaves, and fallen leaves cover the ground like a carpet 4️⃣ Mohai: The lake water is a deep ink blue, creating a strong contrast with the golden leaves 🍁Travel Tips: 1. Be sure to come on a sunny day! The sunlight gives the colorful forest a golden glow 2. Bring some snacks and water, as there are few restaurants in the scenic area 3. It is recommended to wear comfortable hiking shoes, as some rocky paths are difficult to walk on 4. The best viewing period is from late September to early November when the leaf colors are most vibrant Visited at the end of October, saw sunlight filtering through the leaves casting dappled shadows on the ground, with snow-capped mountains faintly visible in the distance. Isn't this just like a scene from a fairy tale! Suddenly understood why autumn is called the most romantic season~ 🚗Transportation: Self-driving: About 3.5 hours from Chengdu (navigate to "Songpinggou Scenic Area") Bus: Take a bus from Chadianzi Bus Station to Maoxian, then charter a car
