Reeds sway in winter, wild charm at Mianqing

As the city enters late autumn and early winter, Mianqing Park is staging a quiet yet vibrant feast of wild charm. Here, the countryside ecology sets the tone, abandoning meticulous craftsmanship to make nature itself the protagonist. By the lakeside, vast patches of reeds and cattails grow freely, forming the soul of the park’s landscape. At this time of year, the reed flowers bloom like an unexpected "snow," gently covering the brownish-yellow stalks. When the wind rises, thousands of golden and white plumes sway and rustle, creating endless poetry along with the water reflecting the sky. The trails naturally extend between the trees and water, leading visitors deep into this ecological painting. The air carries the cool scent of grass and wood, and the eyes take in the simple, open beauty of the wild. There is no noise here, only the sound of the wind blowing across the fields, the occasional chirping of birds, and the tranquility and spaciousness far from the city. Mianqing Park is exactly such a place where the soul can anchor. It uses a patch of the truest reed marsh to capture the flow of the seasons and hold people’s longing for nature. In this suburban wild paradise, every pause is a moment to breathe in sync with heaven and earth.
