Encounter the Romance of Early Autumn in Ningbo

Xiayu Park in Ningbo: Encounter the Romance of Early Autumn Under the Chinese Flame Tree ✨ When the Chinese flame trees start hanging their "little lanterns," I know the city's early autumn has finally arrived~ 📍 Address: Intersection of Xiayu Road and Liyuan South Road (A perk for those in West City!) ⏰ Opening Hours: Open 24 hours for free 💫 📸 Recommended Photo Spot: The best angle is at the north gate entrance of the park, where rows of Chinese flame trees look like a spilled palette of colors 🎨 Outfit suggestion: White or pastel tones go perfectly with the reddish-brown seed pods~ 🌸 Flower Viewing Tips: A stunning sight limited to September and October every year! The reddish-brown seed pods hang like thousands of little lanterns along the city roads 🤩 To catch them at their best, it’s recommended to visit before late September! 💭 My little regret: "I was still a bit late; the Chinese flame flowers had already started to wither..." This small regret became the most beautiful anticipation~ Missed the peak this year? No worries, save this guide and try again next year! 🤳 ✨ Pro Tip: The fewest people are from 7-9 AM, and the light is softest from 4-6 PM Remember to bring a telephoto lens to capture the "little lanterns" atop the trees perfectly! 💕 Family Time: Bring the kids to learn about the Chinese flame tree’s fruit, a great nature education activity~ The park also has plenty of playground facilities, so the kids won’t get bored all day! The upcoming seasons are even more worth the wait, and Ningbo has many more autumn spots waiting for us to explore ❤️ p.s. Looking for friends to team up for next year’s visit in the comments~ 🙋
