In a few days, the leaves will turn completely yellow and cover the ground, making the scenery even more beautiful. ‼️Photos were taken on the afternoon of November 24. We went there in the afternoon, and there weren't many people. If you wait patiently, you can find a good spot to take photos. The leaves are currently yellow and green. I used a filter to make them look all yellow. The real effect can be seen in the last photo. It's beautiful with or without a filter, and worth seeing in person. ㊙️Nearby attractions include Wushan Mountain, Shilaoren, and Shazikou, which you can visit together.
