A hidden gem for fall foliage! Longcanggou.

It's already fall foliage season, and the mountains and forests are golden and beautiful! It's so nice to enjoy the fall foliage in the natural forest!
Here's a guide for you!
Longcanggou has two attractions, Tiansheng Bridge and Diecui Stream, which are in two different places, so it's better to visit them over two days.
About the itinerary:
Day 1: Diecui Stream tour guide:
You can take a shuttle bus to the top of the mountain at the entrance of the scenic area and visit from top to bottom. The hike is easy, about 6 km.
The hiking route is a forest boardwalk with many steps, so bring trekking poles and wear non-slip shoes. There are streams and waterfalls along the way.
The forest is golden at this time of year, making it perfect for fall foliage viewing.
Day 2: Tiansheng Bridge tour guide:
You need to take a 45-minute bus ride to the hiking starting point, and there are only two buses a day at 9:30 am and 1:30 pm.
The hiking starting point is a loop, and it's recommended to go clockwise to save some energy. The best photo spot is closer to the left.
The first half of the trail is mainly a forest boardwalk with many steps, so bring trekking poles and wear non-slip shoes.
The second half of the trail has more streams after the waterfall, and the vegetation is very rich, so you won't be exposed to the sun.
There is a very high waterfall that cascades down, which is very majestic and spectacular. The whole trail is 2–3 km, and it took us 3 hours to walk and take photos along the way. Every spot is a healing view.
