Suzhou's very own "May Fourth Avenue" is about to open on Fengqiao Road!

🍂 If Beijing's May Fourth Avenue is a snapshot of autumn in Beiping, then Suzhou's Fengqiao Road is a love letter to the world from Jiangnan in autumn.

🌰 This autumn, no need to envy Beiping's ginkgo avenue anymore
Suzhou's very own "May Fourth Avenue" is about to open on Fengqiao Road!

Standing at the intersection of Fengqiao Road and Tongjing North Road,
it feels like falling into Monet's palette:
Golden ginkgo leaves trim the sky with gold edges🍁
Fiery red maple leaves sway between white walls and black tiles
The koelreuteria bears pink-orange seed pods
The Chinese tallow tree is tinged with rouge shadows
And those trees whose names you can't call out
Are using the richest colors of the year
To complete this autumn symphony by the canal

📍 Recommended stunning photo spots:
1️⃣ Riverside walkway along Fengqiao Road (red maples and ancient bridge reflections)
2️⃣ Outer wall of Hanshan Temple (perfect composition of yellow walls and colorful leaves)
3️⃣ Metasequoia forest on Jiangfengzhou Island (turning caramel-colored)
4️⃣ Any stone bridge crossing the river (overlooking the colorful corridor)

🕰 Best viewing period: mid to late November through early December
📸 Photography tips: The atmosphere is richest in the early morning mist, and the light is softest after 4 PM

This autumn, save your weekends for Fengqiao Road
Amid the sound of oars and lanterns, collect all the gentleness of Jiangnan🍁
