⏰ Opening Hours: September to March, 8:00 AM - 6:30 PM (last entry at 6:30 PM)

💰 Tickets cost 30 yuan and you can take photos worth thousands!
📸 Must-visit photo spots:
1️⃣ Chen Family Ancient Residence
A century-old ginkgo tree + traditional Chinese courtyard with blue tiles and white walls, the dappled sunlight through the leaves is absolutely beautiful! Wearing Hanfu for photos is highly recommended for a more artistic vibe.
2️⃣ Village Entrance Viewing Platform
A god’s-eye view overlooking the entire ginkgo forest, fewer people and best lighting in the morning.

🚗 Transportation Tips:
It’s recommended to charter a car (about 150 yuan/car), about 40 minutes from Tengchong city center. The village paths are all stone slabs, wear comfortable flat shoes!

🍂 Best Viewing Period:
Mid to late November! The ginkgo trees are fully golden and fallen leaves cover the stone paths, every shot looks like a movie scene.

🍜 Food Recommendations:
Right inside the scenic area! Must try:
- Ginkgo Stewed Chicken: free-range farm chicken + fresh ginkgo nuts
- Ginkgo Pastry: freshly baked! Crispy and not greasy, the top choice for souvenirs.

⚠️ Pitfall Prevention Guide:
- Strong backlighting in the afternoon, morning visits are recommended for photos
- Drones require prior registration (can be done on-site)
- Villagers charge 10 yuan per vehicle for parking, remember to bargain.

📌 Route Plan:
Morning: Take cultural photos at Chen Family Ancient Residence → panoramic shots from the village entrance viewing platform
Afternoon: Stroll along the ginkgo path → enjoy specialty dishes at a farmhouse restaurant
