The autumn scenery in southern Anhui shrouded in morning mist is definitely worth seeing

Departing from Hangzhou to Hongcun, woke up at six to chase a sunrise, it was super beautiful, making the early rise totally worth it! Arrived at Lucun viewing platform around 6:30, there were many people, but I felt there was no need to get up especially early to wait there because every spot takes beautiful photos. The best time to shoot is before the sun comes out when the clouds and mist are at their most beautiful. After watching the sunrise at 7:10, I went to Qishu Lake and was lucky to see a lot of morning mist. (Suggestion: don’t wear white sneakers to Qishu Lake, the muddy ground with frost can easily dirty your shoes!) Accommodation: Orange Hotel, just a few minutes’ walk to Qishu Lake. The sunrise time was below freezing at minus one degree, it was quite cold, so dress warmly.
