136***99Is it worth driving 4 hours from Guangzhou to enjoy the autumn colors here? The answer is: absolutely! This is the most vibrant yellow spot in the province in late autumn, with ginkgo leaves turning golden in early December – absolutely breathtaking, especially under the sunlight! It's already packed with people on weekdays; I can't imagine what it's like on holidays! Try to take a weekday off to come!

110***36The Meiguan Ancient Road was first constructed during the Qin Dynasty, with Hengpu Pass being the earliest pass, forming the initial link between the Central Plains and Lingnan. During the Han Dynasty, General Yu Sheng built a fort and stationed a garrison there, earning it the name "Dayuling," becoming a military stronghold. In 716, the fourth year of the Kaiyuan Period in the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Jiuling, under imperial order, rebuilt the ancient road. The project, completed in two years, features a 2-4 meter wide paved road paved with bluestone and cobblestones, becoming a core transportation artery in the Nanling Mountains. During the Song Dynasty, brothers Cai Ting and Cai Kang reinforced the road with bricks and stone, and built the Meiguan Gate Tower, earning it the geographical designation of "Southern Guangdong's Great Pass" and "Lingnan's First Pass." Modern Transformation: After the opening of the Yue-Han Railway, the ancient road gradually declined, but the remaining intact sections remain as historical relics.
