China's No.1 Maple Leaf Avenue, Check-in List

Who says you have to fly to Japan to see red leaves? Autumn in Benxi, Liaoning is like a color palette spilled by the gods! 🚗 Drive through the blazing red and yellow mountains, every frame is wallpaper-worthy scenery, and every snap can blow up your social feed! (Includes secret photo spots + pitfall avoidance guide) ——— 📸【Must-Visit Scenic Spots List】 1️⃣ Benxi Guanmenshan Forest Park 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 🍂 The "Little Jiuzhaigou of Northeast China" lives up to its name! Maple boardwalks, emerald lakes, and colorful forests intertwine. It’s recommended to take the sightseeing bus to the "Maple King" stop, where a 300-year-old maple tree glows like a flame! 🔥 📌Tips: Best viewing period is mid-October to early November, most beautiful in the early morning mist, remember to bring a windproof jacket~ 2️⃣ Laobiangou Scenic Area 🌟🌟🌟🌟 🎨 A stream links a ten-mile gallery! Stroll along the wooden boardwalk, with golden larches, orange maples, and fiery red leaves reflecting in the water, as if stepping into a Monet painting! (Drone shots are amazing ✈️) 3️⃣ Dashihu Lake 🌟🌟🌟🌟 💦 Blue-green lake water embraced by colorful forests, sunlight filtering through leaves creating dappled light, the lake surface sparkling like scattered gold! Recommended to take the less crowded trail on the west bank, fewer people and great photo spots~ 4️⃣ Benxi Water Caves 🌟🌟🌟 🌊 Tired of red leaves? Come to Asia’s longest underground river for a change of scenery! The 12℃ constant temperature cave wonder plus light show makes a perfect break in your itinerary. ——— 🚗【3 Days 2 Nights Highlight Route】 Day 1: Benxi City → Guanmenshan (Stay at a guesthouse near the scenic area, get up early to catch the first sightseeing bus!) Day 2: Laobiangou → Dashihu Lake (Try farmhouse iron pot stew for lunch, chestnut chicken is super fragrant! 🌰) Day 3: Benxi Water Caves → Return trip (Buy some wild mountain mushrooms and hazelnuts as souvenirs) ——— 💡【Insider Tips】 ✅ Outfit: Bright-colored sweater + comfortable sneakers, wear a knit hat for better photos 🧣 ✅ Transportation: 1.5h drive from Shenyang, or take high-speed train to Benxi Station then transfer to tourist shuttle bus ✅ Hidden activities: Aerial shots of Guanmenshan "Maple Leaf Tunnel," tea brewing by the Laobiangou stream (bring your own small stove for a cozy experience!) ——— "Where is the most stunning autumn in your memory?
