Escape the city in 1 hour! Enjoy the stunning secret red leaf spots around Zhengzhou

Hi babes! Finally, the most beloved season of the year is here! 🍂
No need to travel far, just 1 hour from downtown to check in at two hidden red leaf gems:
Daxigou and Ciyunsi Temple, super convenient! ✨

The red leaves covering the hillsides are truly breathtaking!!
For those with enough time, I recommend visiting both spots～

📍 Daxigou
Just navigate to "Ciyunsi Temple Parking Lot"
🎫 Tickets:
Daxigou is free! But there is a 10 RMB management fee for driving into the village
Ciyunsi Temple tickets can be purchased in advance on Trip.com for a better deal
Shuttle bus up the mountain is 20 RMB round trip per person
🅿️ Parking:
You can find roadside parking after entering Daxigou and walk to the spot
Ciyunsi Temple parking lot charges a fee
It’s only a 12-minute drive between the two attractions!

📸 Must-capture photo spots:
✔️ Hiking trail
Red leaves wrap around the winding path layer by layer
Sunlight filters through creating dappled shadows
Truly Monet painting vibes! 🎨

✔️ Viewing platform
The moment you reach the top, you’ll be speechless!
It’s like God spilled his palette—
A stunning blend of red, orange, and yellow!

✔️ Ciyunsi Temple
A peaceful place to calm your mind every year
Few people and very tranquil temple 👘
