The wind of Longshouyang brings the richest autumn feeling in Hainan

After staying in Hainan for a long time, you always feel that autumn is hidden—until you walk into the fields of Longshouyang and realize that the wind here has already blended the taste of autumn to the fullest. No need to wait for the mountains covered in red leaves, the autumn of Longshouyang is hidden in the color of the vast rice fields. The summer green has quietly deepened, the rice ears hang heavy with golden yellow, and when the wind blows, the waves of rice ripple along the ridges. Amid the rustling sound, there is the fresh fragrance of sun-dried grains. Taking a deep breath fills you with a solid sense of harvest. The wildflowers by the ridges have lost the intensity of midsummer but gained a touch of laziness. Purple tiny flowers and white fluffy grass, covered with morning dew that hasn’t yet evaporated, roll off with the wind, bringing along the crisp scent of the grass leaves. Walking on the wooden boardwalk through the fields, the wind is the freest guide. It lifts the hem of your clothes and leads you past farmers working in the fields—they bend over tending the late rice, occasionally standing up to wipe sweat, their laughter mixing with the wind and drifting far away. It also guides you to a small wooden house by the field, where strings of corn and red chili peppers hang in front, gently swaying in the wind. Sunlight streams through the wooden windows, storing the warm scent of autumn inside the house. When tired, sit on the stone bench beside the boardwalk, watch the clouds slowly drift in the distance, and listen to the sound of the wind passing through the rice fields. Even time seems to slow down. Only then do you understand that autumn in Hainan is never desolate, but like the wind in the fields of Longshouyang—carrying the sweet fragrance of grains, the fresh moisture of plants, and the warmth of daily life. Every breeze is wrapped in the richest autumn feeling, making you want to quietly tuck this taste into your heart.
