The autumn secret deep in the Taihang Mountains! This small town of Fuping hides so many surprises

As the northern autumn colors spread across the sky, I found the most tranquil autumn in Baoding Fuping. Here’s a guide to enjoying the fall away from the crowds—keep it handy! The Tianshengqiao Waterfall Group is currently putting on a colorful feast—the mountains are dyed in layers of autumn hues, waterfalls flowing through, as if stepping into an oil painting. Climb to the top and look far out, the entire Taihang Mountain range unfolds before your eyes, every frame worth capturing. Following the winding mountain road, the autumn atmosphere in Luotuo Bay is rich. Stone walls and gray-tiled houses are arranged in an orderly fashion, golden corn cobs hang under the eaves, and villagers sit in their yards picking mountain walnuts. Here, time slows down. Be sure to try authentic Fuping delicacies! Hot sesame seed cakes stuffed with meat, sweet jujube cakes, and a bowl of warming mountain mushroom soup are the simplest flavors of this autumn. Before you leave, don’t forget to bring some Fuping jujubes, packing the sweetness of autumn to take home. This low-key Taihang small town is waiting for those who truly appreciate its most genuine charm.
