Shaoguan's stunning sunset check-in spot, Shaoyang Tower atop Lotus Mountain, is just too romantic!

Shaoguan's autumn scenery is here 🌄 At the peak of Lotus Mountain, the sunset at Shaoyang Tower is like a painting 📍Location: Shaoguan National Forest Park Lotus Mountain Scenic Area 🚗Transportation: Take bus routes 5 or 7 and get off at the City Forest Park stop ⏰Opening hours: 8:30 AM - 5:30 PM (last entry at 4:30 PM) As the sun sets, the peak of Lotus Mountain gradually quiets down, with the 42.8-meter-high Shaoyang Tower standing tall🌆 This ancient-style building is definitely the best spot to enjoy Shaocheng’s sunset! ✨Must-know check-in tips: 1️⃣ Choose a clear evening (best from May to July) 2️⃣ Arrive before 5:30 PM (remember to come early on holidays) 3️⃣ Bring a camera and a power bank 4️⃣ Wear comfortable hiking shoes (about a 30-minute climb) Standing on the fifth-floor viewing platform of Shaoyang Tower, the sky begins its colorful show💫 ▫️5:30 PM - Clouds turn into "shy pink" ▫️6:00 PM - "Luxurious gold" and "girly pink" dominate the sky ▫️6:30 PM - "Fairy purple" makes a stunning appearance The Zhenjiang and Wujiang rivers sparkle like necklaces✨ The distant Danxia Mountain glows bright red, while nearby Lotus Mountain is lush and green🌿 This is the legendary "half city mountain view, half city lake"! Tips: ✅ Shaoyang Tower is open until 7:00 PM ✅ There are restrooms and rest areas inside the tower ✅ Be careful when descending ✅ PS. Remember to bring a jacket, it’s windy at the top When the last ray of sunset fades away🌇 The lights of Shaocheng’s thousands of homes gradually turn on Isn’t this our legendary "two-color visual feast"!
