Red! The Chinese tallow trees at Qionghai Lake in Xichang are dyeing winter into a burning poem

Red! The Chinese tallow trees at Qionghai Lake in Xichang are dyeing winter into a burning poem Red! Getting redder and redder! The Chinese tallow trees by Qionghai Lake in Xichang are painting the winter days with the warmest red in the most passionate way. Winter in Xichang is a letter written in red leaves by the Chinese tallow trees, delivered punctually every year to the shores of Qionghai. Opening it, every leaf vein hides a burning invitation, inviting you to join this winter-exclusive romance. That red is never a sudden stunning appearance. It quietly emerges from green to pale yellow, then slowly seeps from goose yellow to crimson, layer upon layer, as if time holds a brush delicately mixing colors, finally dyeing the whole tree into a warm imprint deeply etched on the shore of Qionghai. Among the branches interspersed with red and green, the shimmering waves of Qionghai flicker; the sky above is whimsically blue, the clouds soft and carefree, even the wind carries a gentle warmth— all of this perfectly forms the backdrop for the red leaves of the Chinese tallow trees, making that shade of red even more vivid. Ancient poets were already "intoxicated" by this tree of red. Lu You described it as the subtlety of "leaves just turning red," Yang Wanli called it the masterful brush of an "old dyer," but the Chinese tallow tree pays no mind to these praises, quietly standing by the water, turning itself into a painting that needs no framing. Backed by green mountains and facing clear waters, this Chinese tallow tree knows best how to place itself into Xichang’s most beautiful sentence. If you want to live inside this poetry, Guomai Fengchao Hotel is an excellent choice. The hotel is located at [specific street name], only [X] meters from the Qionghai Wetland Chinese Tallow Tree Viewing Area, just a few minutes’ walk away. When the first ray of morning sunlight falls, opening your hotel window, you might see the red leaves in the morning mist glistening faintly, dreamlike and magical; after an evening stroll and return, the warm lights of the hotel will ease your day’s fatigue, letting this romance continue into your rest time. Walking along the Qionghai Wetland trail, starting from the hotel and heading left, you can closely admire the Chinese tallow trees in different postures and feel the stunning scenes they create with the lake and mountains. Winter in Xichang is always generously sunny, and this tree’s red is especially exuberant. While snow falls in the north, here it unfolds a colorful, brief winter fairy tale, making everyone who encounters it remember this unique warmth. Winter at Qionghai is hidden in the red of the Chinese tallow trees; this romantic red is hidden in the convenience and comfort of Guomai Fengchao Hotel. No need to wait for spring, the Chinese tallow trees are perfectly red right now, just waiting for you to come and join this rendezvous ❤️.
