Just 1.5 hours from Chengdu to a secret paradise, the stunning golden phoenix mountain autumn foliage

Want to enjoy colorful autumn forests without traveling far? Then come to Chongzhou Jin Feng Mountain (Chechangping)! It’s only a 1.5-hour drive from Chengdu, and as soon as you get off the car, you’re surrounded by beautiful autumn colors. No need to go deep into western Sichuan; you can enjoy colorful forests and snowy mountains around Chengdu. As a Chengdu local, this is truly a blessing! Here, you’ll find snow-capped mountains, lakes, colorful forests, and grasslands—every snapshot looks like a masterpiece! I highly recommend a hidden gem perfect for family trips near Chengdu—the Wolong Ganhaizi Scenic Area in Wenchuan. Reds, yellows, and oranges weave together like an oil painting, and every photo looks like wallpaper-worthy scenery. The entire route is covered with colorful forests: golden ginkgo trees, fiery red maples, deep green pines and cypresses… layers upon layers of intertwined colors, like stepping into an autumn palette. When the wind blows, the leaves rustle romantically. Standing on the mountaintop, watching the morning glow slowly dye the horizon red, or seeing the sunset fill the valley, at that moment, you can’t help but sigh—“Autumn can be this romantic!” Navigation: Chongzhou Jin Feng Mountain (search “Chechangping”). Chongzhou Jin Feng Mountain = autumn palette + the easiest colorful forest hike near Chengdu. No need to travel far to experience a whole romantic autumn.
