Autumn trip to Zhula Township! An unplanned encounter with the gentle autumn of Nyingchi

🌾❶ The pastoral poem of wind-blown barley waves Standing at the top of a gentle slope looking down, the barley fields look like a huge yellow-green patchwork quilt, with layers of barley waves rising as the wind passes. Squatting down to touch the barley ears, my fingertips are filled with the scent of sunshine. In the distance, herders hum Gongbu Tibetan songs while driving cattle, their voices drifting far, far away. ❷ The secret base of mushrooms and flowers At the end of the meadow, a small forest is an unexpected treasure! On the carpet of pine needles lie plump matsutake mushrooms and orange-red milk mushrooms, which release the fragrance of earth when gently pulled. Purple gentian flowers bloom in the forest clearing, butterflies nap on the petals, and even the air is sweet. ❸ The little regret of Shell Mountain I originally wanted to bring a camera to shoot the layered rock walls of Salaka Show, but unfortunately, the clouds were too thick, and the mountain peak was always hidden in the fog. But the villagers said, "It's good to leave some longing; next time you come, the snow on the mountain will be thicker." 📸【Photography Tips · Capturing the gentleness of autumn】 ✅ Barley field portraits: Have the model stand on the ridge with the barley waves as the background; side lighting will create golden edges on the hair ✅ Mushroom close-ups: Use a macro lens to shoot dew drops on matsutake mushrooms, with the background blurred into green bokeh ✅ Pasture panorama: Climb a small hill and use a wide-angle lens to capture the meadow, cattle, and distant snow-capped mountains 💡【Real experience · The perfect imperfection】 ✅ Bonus points: • Sebu Pasture is free to enter, with few people and beautiful scenery, perfect for daydreaming and photography • Villagers are very enthusiastic and will actively guide you to the best spots for mushroom picking • There is a natural stone table on the meadow, ideal for spreading out a picnic mat and enjoying matsutake chicken stew ⚠️ A little reminder: • There are no shops inside the pasture, so be sure to bring your own water and food • Mushroom picking requires villagers' permission; some species are poisonous • Do not step on the barley fields; walk along the ridges "When I put the matsutake mushrooms into the bamboo basket, when the wind blew my hair, when the cowbells jingled by—suddenly I felt that perhaps the most beautiful part of travel is never the destination, but those unplanned little joys." 📍Location: Zhula Township, Nyingchi · Sebu Pasture 🚗 Transportation: 1.5 hours self-drive from Nyingchi city (navigate to Zhula Township Government, then ask for directions) 🎫 Admission: Free ⏰ Best time: Late September to mid-October (barley golden period) 📷 Equipment: Canon 6D Mark II + 24-105mm lens
