【Autumn Limited-Time Feast】The Jinta Poplar Forest is blooming into a golden sea!

This is the desert's once-a-year 20-day golden feast—the Jinta Poplar Forest in Jiuquan, Gansu, is dazzling in the autumn breeze. Tens of thousands of poplars don golden armor, with clear waters reflecting the blue sky and golden leaves, like a burning oil painting in the desert.

✨ Best viewing period: Late September to mid-October

· Stroll along "Golden Wave Lake" to capture the golden forest in the water and the mirror of the sky
· Soft light at dawn and dusk shines on the golden canopy like a miracle
· Dress in red tops and white skirts to shoot stunning photos in the golden world

🐫 Occasionally, camel caravans pass through the forest, instantly transporting you back to the thousand-year-old Silk Road! With large temperature differences between day and night, bring windproof jackets and sun protection, and don’t forget your camera—every frame here is wallpaper-worthy!


Miss this, and you'll have to wait another year!📸
