Known as the "Ancestor of Grottoes," Tianti Mountain Grottoes welcomes the most poetic moment of the year. At this time, white frost lightly covers the stone steps, the Huangyang River Reservoir ripples with green water, the snowy peaks of the distant Qilian Mountains and the nearby frost-covered leaves create a charming contrast, forming an autumnal scene where nature and culture blend harmoniously. The unique charm of Tianti Mountain Grottoes lies in its timeless autumnal beauty. During the frost descent season, the mountain vegetation fades from deep green to varying shades of autumn yellow. Through the gaps in the leaves, the shimmering waters tell stories of the ages. Reaching the viewing platform, the Huangyang River Reservoir is like a green jewel set in the landscape. The autumn breeze brings the moisture of the lake and the fresh scent of grass and trees, adding a sense of openness and tranquility. Visitors here can not only appreciate the millennium of history and compassion embodied in the grottoes but also feel the gentle touch of the autumn wind, as if stepping into a poetic world. Climbing high to gaze afar, the beauty of nature and the charm of culture merge, painting a captivating scene unique to the frost-covered Tianti Mountain. Come to Tianti Mountain Grottoes to experience this final glow of autumn, encounter unexpected beauty, and find a warm rhythm for your body and soul in the gradually cooling weather.
