A guide to viewing autumn foliage at Jiaxing Nanhu Lake! A romantic autumn scene with half the sky ablaze in red.

Hey everyone! The maple leaves at Jiaxing Nanhu Lake are turning red! The lake is ablaze with red leaves against the water, creating an incredibly beautiful autumn atmosphere – perfect for taking amazing photos! 🍂 Best time to view the autumn leaves: Mid-November to early December each year. The leaves turn the color most evenly, and when the wind blows, they create red waves – absolutely stunning! 📍 Best photo spots: - Nanhu Lakeside Trail: Walk along the lake, and the red leaves reflected in the water make for wallpaper-worthy photos. - Around the island in the middle of the lake: Take a boat to the island, where the red maples and ancient pavilions create a classic style for photos. - Next to Nanhu Tiandi: Red maples and modern architecture side-by-side create a stunning mixed-style effect. 👗 Outfit Tips: Wear light-colored clothing! White, beige, and light camel are all great colors to match. They contrast beautifully with the red maple leaves, making photos stand out and enhancing your complexion. 🚶‍♀️ Travel Tips: - It's recommended to go early in the morning when there are fewer people and better lighting, so you don't have to fight for a good spot for photos. - It can be a bit chilly by the lake, so remember to bring a jacket to avoid catching a cold. - Bring some snacks and water to replenish your energy whenever you get tired. For those in Jiaxing and those in the surrounding area planning an autumn outing, don't miss the limited-time autumn beauty of Nanhu Lake! Invite your friends and go!
