1.5 hours from Beijing, everyone on my social circle thought I went to Erhai Lake

My outdoor spirit sanctuary! The little Erhai Lake in the suburbs of Beijing lives up to its reputation❗
This is not a crowded internet-famous check-in spot, but a truly less crowded and beautiful autumn-exclusive scenery!🍁

🌾【Reed Marshes Are the Autumn and Winter Highlight】
Who says autumn only has red leaves and ginkgo? The reed marshes here are the hidden boss!
Golden reeds sway in the wind like a spilled palette of nature, every shot looks like an oil painting✨
The largest wetland park north of the Yangtze River, a paradise for 280 bird species, with flocks of migratory birds circling and flying—truly breathtaking!
