Golden breeze paints the ten-mile ginkgo corridor of Changxing, autumn eyes caress the reed marshes, and a two-day trip to Nanxun

Day 1 Shanghai → Nanxun → Changxing

All day

Everyone gathered downstairs at the Mingshen Center Building from 7:00 to 7:30 AM. The instructor introduced the activities and team members, and there were interactive games, all filled with laughter and joy.

Arrive at Nanxun Ancient Town at noon. Enjoy some free time to take photos. If you're tired, explore the town for some local snacks. Mulberry wine, tangerine cake, and Jili Lake silk are all local specialties. Enjoy lunch at your leisure.

In the afternoon, we drove to the Tuying Wetland, located adjacent to the northwest of Taihu Lake. Connected to the lake by numerous waterways, each canal is lined with densely packed reeds and whitewashed "floating houses," creating a breathtaking Jiangnan landscape against the backdrop of the rolling mountains. This is also a fantastic portrait location newly discovered by China-TravelNote. This is where the "Travel Girl" made her debut, and we finished the photoshoot with great pleasure.

After finishing the filming of Tuying Wetland in time, we returned to the hotel and had dinner together in the evening.

Driving distance: about 180 kilometers

Day 2 Changxing → Shanghai

All day

After breakfast, we grabbed our photography gear and drove to the Ten-Mile Ginkgo Corridor, a pristine, naturally grown ancient ginkgo forest scattered across a narrow, 12.5-kilometer-long valley, flanked by mountains. The ginkgo trees here range from a few decades old to hundreds of years old. Since the area wasn't crowded that morning, we began our free-style photography. Once the tour girls had changed into their outfits, we began our environmental portraits. Our China-TravelNote photography guide provided guidance throughout the shoot.

After lunch in Changxing County, we gathered for the bus back to Shanghai. It was a long journey back to Shanghai. Everyone was so reluctant to leave, so we kissed goodbye with tears in our eyes. Don't forget your homework!

Q: How do I shoot if it rains?

A: If the weather is cloudy and rainy, we will focus on portraits. Showers or light rain will not affect the shooting as long as you bring a raincoat and camera rain cover. (Based on the weather forecast of the Central Meteorological Observatory)
