All-season departure! Taihe Pink Muhly Grass Self-driving Guide

Quanjing Meishan Tianfu New Area Hotel is located on Ren Shou Tianfu Avenue. It takes about 20-30 minutes by car to drive to Taihe Park. Check the vehicle condition before departure and plan the route in advance using navigation software. It is recommended to wear light-colored clothes, such as a white dress or shirt, paired with pink accessories to better match the pink muhly grass. You can also prepare small stools, fill lights, reflectors, and other shooting props, as well as mosquito repellent to prevent flying insects.

Transportation Route

From the hotel, drive along Tianfu Avenue and follow the navigation instructions to Taihe Park in Taihe Town, Dongpo District, Meishan City. The road conditions are generally good; please pay attention to traffic rules and speed limits.

Pink Muhly Grass Viewing

• Viewing Time: The blooming period of pink muhly grass is usually from September to November, with October being the best viewing period. It is recommended to arrive before 5 PM, as the light after 6:10 PM is insufficient for photography.

• Specific Location: The pink muhly grass is located by the lakeside in Taihe Park. You can find it by walking along the lakeside trail.

• Photography Tips: Since there are many city buildings in the park background, use overhead shooting angles, actively create foregrounds, and find depth to highlight the pink muhly grass. Sunny days produce better results. Shoot in RAW format and adjust the colors towards magenta in post-processing to create a dreamy effect.

Other Attractions in the Park

After viewing the pink muhly grass, you can also visit other attractions in Taihe Park, such as the City Art Center, Aidu Beach, and Cloudland Park. The City Art Center is divided into the South Building and North Building. The South Building is the city planning exhibition hall, and the second floor of the North Building is the art exhibition area.

Dining Recommendations

After the visit, you can go to Taihe Old Town to taste local specialties. For example, Yongfeng Steamed Basket Feast offers freshly steamed crispy pork and fragrant meatballs that fill the air; there is also Taihe Old Street’s spicy hot pot, hot and spicy with a fresh flavor, and finish with a bowl of fermented glutinous rice balls to relieve greasiness. Additionally, Yongfeng’s eight treasures, including rice, rice syrup, and handmade rice flower candy, are also worth trying.

Notes

There may be many visitors in the park. Please shoot respectfully and do not trample on the pink muhly grass. Visitors with children should watch them carefully, especially near the water and playground areas.
