Qingshanhu Water Forest Country Park: An Autumn Wonderland on the Lakeside 🍂🦆

Escape the city bustle and dive into a fairytale scene at Qingshanhu Water Forest Country Park—especially stunning in winter! Picture emerald-green lake waters set against a backdrop of fiery orange Metasequoia trees, creating a magical contrast that’s dreamy for nature lovers and photo chasers.

Start your day by catching the direct bus from the nearest metro station (just 2 yuan, super convenient), then head in when the park opens at 8:00 AM. Once inside (🎫 tickets are 40 yuan), stroll along boardwalks framed by towering trees, or hop on a boat ride for a peaceful glide through flooded forests—you’ll feel like you’re floating in a storybook.

For that insta-worthy shot, look for sunny spots where light filters through orange branches onto emerald waters. Creative angles with autumn leaves, reflections, and close-ups of unusual Metasequoia trunks make your images pop. If you’re feeling whimsical, why not set up a paper rabbit or Queen of Hearts puppet with open books under a leafy canopy for that magical touch?

Pack a picnic to enjoy lakeside tranquility—you’ll find plenty of quiet nooks perfect for unwinding. Do check the forecast: the park charms under both cloudy and clear skies, but rain boots are handy if it’s wet! Last entry is 16:30, so arrive early to maximize daylight.
