Staying in a glass house, I caught the autumn in Hefei!

Highlight Features When the phoenix leaves in Hefei start to turn yellow, I hide in the glass house of Shucheng Pengxiang Ecological Hotel. This place is like a breathing ecological museum, with 300 acres of park hiding the secrets of the four seasons. The autumn limited experience makes you travel to the fairy tale world in a second. Recommended reason ✔️ Autumn Limited: Soak in a private bath in the sweet osmanthus rain, and take blockbusters under the maple leaf corridor ✔️ Parent-child surprise: Autumn harvest experience to dig sweet potatoes, make sweet osmanthus honey and take it home ✔️ Health upgrade: Autumn medicinal diet package, moisturizing the lungs and nourishing the stomach is the right time Hotel environment The autumn ecological garden is the scene where the palette is overturned—the camphor avenue is dyed with gold edges, the maple leaf corridor is like a flame tunnel, and the sweet-scented osmanthus forest is filled with fragrance. The lake reflects red, orange, yellow and green, and it feels like stepping into a landscape painting when the morning mist rises. Room facilities Upgrade the lake view villa, the terrace faces the maple leaf forest. The room is equipped with smart floor heating, and it is super healing to step barefoot on the heated bamboo fiber carpet. The Chinese herbal medicine care in the bathroom has been upgraded to the autumn moisturizing series, and the whole body exudes the fragrance of sweet osmanthus after taking a bath. Most recommended experience 1. Sweet Osmanthus Rain Afternoon Tea: Pick sweet osmanthus under the century-old sweet osmanthus tree, and make sweet osmanthus honey with tea and snacks on the spot 2. Maple Leaf Gallery Photography: The hotel provides Hanfu for free, and professional photographers take photos for 30 min 3. Autumn Harvest Experience: Take your baby to dig sweet potatoes, and the roasted sweet potatoes can be taken back to the room as a midnight snack Nearby attractions • Wanfo Lake cycling around the lake: Rent the hotel's mountain bike and chase maple leaves along the lake • Shucha Town tea picking: Autumn tea has a special flavor, you can experience the tea frying process • Longhe Tower climbing: See the panoramic view of Shucheng, the colorful forests are as beautiful as a painting Restaurant recommendation • Autumn Medicinal Diet Pot: Gastrodia elata stewed pigeon + Dendrobium juice, warms the stomach and nourishes the body • Sweet Osmanthus Feast: Sweet Osmanthus Root, Sweet Osmanthus Cake, Sweet Osmanthus Fermented Rice Wine, sweet to the heart • Lake Fresh Barbecue: Freshly caught Wanfo Lake fish, brushed with sweet osmanthus honey and grilled Detailed address Pengxiang Ecological Park, Qianrenqiao Town, Shucheng County, Lu'an City, Anhui Province Transportation guide • Self-driving: 1 hr from Hefei city, search for "Pengxiang Ecological Park" on the navigation • High-speed rail: 20 min taxi from Shucheng East Station, the fare is about CNY 35 • Bus: Hefei Tourism Bus Station → Shucheng Bus, transfer to Bus No. 5 for direct access 🌸Real Experience Tips 1. There is a big temperature difference between morning and evening in autumn, bring a light down jacket + Hanfu coat 2. Best shooting time for Maple Leaf Gallery: 9–10am, 3–4pm 3. Autumn harvest experience needs to be reserved 1 day in advance, providing children's gloves and tools 4. The medicinal diet pot needs to be booked 2 hrs in advance, and you can note the taboo ingredients Here, autumn is no longer an abstract seasonal noun, but a concrete perception of sweet osmanthus fragrance, red maple leaves, and sweet sweet potatoes. When the city is still trapped in gray, I have already captured the most beautiful autumn in Hefei in the ecological secret realm. ‌
