Autumn at Yanque Lake in Nanjing. It made me feel the places to enjoy autumn in Nanjing.

Autumn in Nanjing is truly beautiful! Recently discovered Yanque Lake, this stunning check-in spot. In just 2 hours, I took over 100 photos and couldn't bear to delete any 🤩 📍Ming Xiaoling Yanque Lake Scenic Area Address: Meihuagu Road, Xiaolingwei Street, Xuanwu District (inside Ming Xiaoling Scenic Area) 💫Recommended photo spots: 1️⃣ Lakeside Dawn Redwood Forest In late autumn, the dawn redwoods turn from green to red, creating a breathtaking scene of colorful forests! Standing on the wooden boardwalk, every shot looks like a masterpiece. 2️⃣ Pavilion in the Middle of the Lake The pavilion is reflected on the water, surrounded by colorful leaves, making for a super artistic composition. 3️⃣ Lakeside Trail The trail is lined with phoenix trees and ginkgo trees on both sides. Capturing the moment when leaves fall is truly amazing! 4️⃣ Morning Dew Garden Lotus Pond Although the lotus flowers have withered, the remaining lotus and reeds are very poetic. It’s recommended to wear light-colored clothes for photoshoots. 📷Photo Tips: ▫️It’s best to visit on a sunny morning before 8-10 AM for soft light and fewer people. ▫️Wearing white or beige clothes makes photos stand out more. ▫️Bringing a telephoto lens over 50mm helps capture close-up details. ▫️Drones require prior approval to fly. 🍁Best viewing period: Mid to late November During this time, the dawn redwoods are fully red, and the ginkgo trees are golden, offering the richest color layers. Recently, many photography enthusiasts have been coming here daily. 🍂Nearby attractions: ▫️Ming Xiaoling Sacred Way (5-minute walk) ▫️Meihuagu (10-minute walk) ▫️Meiling Palace (15-minute bike ride)
