Chuan Half-Day Leisure: Step into the Colorful Fairy Tale of Autumn✨
Finally checked in at Tachuan, one of China’s top 3 most beautiful autumn spots! Last week, I took advantage of the good weather and went on a whim, and it definitely didn’t disappoint! Autumn here is like God’s spilled palette—every snap is a wallpaper-worthy masterpiece📸
📍Transportation Guide:
It’s just a 20-minute ride by three-wheeled vehicle from Hongcun! 💰Only 20 yuan, super affordable~ The golden rice fields along the way are incredibly soothing🌾
9:00 Arrive at the entrance of Tachuan Village🚪
Right at the gate, I was moved to tears by the old maple tree! 🍁The leaves are glowing red, sunlight filters through the gaps in the leaves, and even the shadows have a warm tone~
9:30-11:30 Countryside Stroll🌿
The white walls and black tiles lining the stone paths, combined with the harvest colors of corn and chili peppers, are so full of rustic charm! We even met a sweet grandma who gave us chestnuts—so adorable~
11:30-12:30 Climb High and Look Far⛰
Following photography pros, we found a stunning viewing platform! The hills are covered with multicolored Chinese tallow trees, and every shot is an autumn-exclusive wallpaper🎞
12:30-14:00 Farmhouse Lunch🍲
Highly recommend the stinky mandarin fish and bamboo shoot braised pork! The owner said the leaves turn even redder in mid-November🍂 but I think this gradual color change is just perfect now~
After 14:00 Daydream and Sunbathe🌥
Sitting in the courtyard watching the clouds roll by—this is what autumn should feel like!
⚠️Useful Tips:
- Best viewing period: Late October to mid-November
- Best photo lighting: 8-10 AM
- Wear warm-colored clothes for better photos
On the way back, Tachuan under the sunset looked like a fairy tale world✨ Silently made a wish: I must come again next year!
