Chengdu's hidden "Ginkgo Secret Realm"—a breathtaking masterpiece.

Golden sunlight filters through the branches, and beneath your feet, a carpet of crisp ginkgo leaves crackles. A sudden gust of wind sends thousands of butterfly-like yellow leaves swirling into your embrace. This isn't late autumn; it's as if the Creator has overturned a palette, dyeing the entire Yangma River a flowing amber.✨
🌳 Ginkgo Corridor: Step into Van Gogh's world.
Sisters, take my advice! Enter through the east gate and head straight for the river. The 300-meter Ginkgo Corridor will leave you speechless! Intertwined branches form a golden dome, sunlight dances through the gaps onto the stone path, and a twirl of your skirt creates a golden vortex.📸 (Prepare to fill your phone's memory!)
🍵 Riverside Tea Houses: Steal a moment of tranquility.
Hidden along the riverside boardwalk are old tea houses where you can enjoy bamboo chairs and covered bowl tea for just 5 yuan! Savor hot tea as ginkgo leaves drift onto the river's surface, transforming it into flowing gold with every ripple.✨ (The owner will even treat you to freshly roasted pumpkin seeds!)
🌉 Ancient Bridge Secret: Journey through a millennium.
Don't miss the moss-covered stone arch bridge at the river bend! Vines climb its surface, and fallen ginkgo leaves create a golden carpet. Photos here require no filters.📸 (Wearing Hanfu here is a must!)
⚠Tips to avoid pitfalls:
1⃣The best time to shoot is between 3–5 pm; backlighting creates a natural soft-focus effect for portraits.
2⃣Bring a transparent umbrella as a prop. Twirling with it as leaves fall around you is magical.
3⃣The sugar-coated fruit balls at the snack stalls are incredibly chewy! The freshly made corn cakes have a hint of bamboo leaf fragrance.🌽
