Changsha's autumn is legendary! Reach the "Colorful Metasequoia Corridor" in 40 minutes, miss it and wait a year

Autumn in Changsha can no longer be hidden! In Jiangbei Town, Changsha County, a "limited edition Metasequoia Avenue" is beautifully vibrant—rows of metasequoias shed their green, donning orange-red and golden "autumn outfits," winding into a sunlit colorful corridor. It is now at its peak beauty, every step feels like stepping into an autumn fairy tale!

🍂 Step into the autumn palette! This Metasequoia Avenue is absolutely stunning

Hidden in Teli Village, Jiangbei Town, this metasequoia forest holds the richest colors of Changsha’s autumn. The metasequoias here are old, with tall, upright trunks and layered branches. As autumn arrives, nature carefully "dyes" them: the top branches turn a translucent orange-red, the middle glows warm golden yellow, and the lower parts retain some deep green. The three colors intertwine, and from afar, the entire avenue looks like a spilled palette—vibrant and healing.

Sunlight is the best filter here! In the afternoon, light filters through the dense branches, casting mottled shadows on the ground. Walking on the leaf-covered path, the crunch beneath your feet, surrounded by continuous colorful woods, even the breeze carries autumn’s warmth. Whether standing in the forest looking up to shoot the "colorful leaf dome" or strolling sideways to capture dynamic moments, every shot is a soft-lit autumn masterpiece; if a gentle breeze passes, the leaves sway lightly, and the light shifts, making the scene as lively as a movie clip.

The must-not-miss view is the drone perspective! Flying low over the metasequoia forest, you can clearly see the colorful corridor winding along the path, with metasequoias on both sides like orderly "autumn guards." Combined with the faint rural ridges in the distance, it blends natural wild charm with painterly delicacy. Any frame captured can be used as wallpaper.

📍 Complete autumn check-in guide, guaranteed no mistakes

- Exact location: Jin Xing Group, Teli Village, Jiangbei Town, Changsha County (navigate directly to the Metasequoia Avenue entrance)
- Transportation: Strongly recommend driving! About 40 minutes from downtown Changsha, prioritize the highway route for smooth traffic without detours, and enjoy the rural autumn scenery along the way for a great mood.
- Parking guide: The avenue itself is narrow, roadside parking is prone to congestion and unsafe. You can park by the bridge at the avenue intersection, where there are plenty of spaces, just a 2-3 minute walk to the entrance—super convenient.
- Photography tips:
- Portraits: Choose the middle of the forest path with metasequoias as the background. Shoot side poses looking back or walking candidly. Light-colored sweaters and khaki trench coats photograph well, and pairing with scarves or berets adds to the autumn vibe.
- Landscape: The light is softest before 10 AM or after 3 PM. To shoot metasequoia reflections, crouch by low spots on the roadside and use puddles for composition. Low-altitude drone flights (avoid illegal high-altitude flying) can capture the full winding view of the colorful corridor.
