Tianping Mountain

Tianping Mountain's red leaf pictures🍁 are so beautiful! Love it! It's indeed a great place to enjoy maple leaves! It's suggested to go earlier, we arrived at more than 2 pm, and the parking lot was already full, and there were quite a few tour groups. But the on-site scenery is really good, it looks good no matter how you take pictures. The layers of maple leaves with different shades of color are indeed the most beautiful scenic spot in Suzhou. Fan Zhongyan made a careful selection, really good!

Hiking to the top of Tianpingshan

Tianping Shan is an excellent location if you are looking for a hike. during Summer I was able to take a trip over to this location and had an amazing experience. however I would recommend you to visit during the autumn season, so that way you can experience the beautiful orange leaves 🍁. it’s quite easy to get to this location, you just need to hop on the metro line 1 and go all the way to the end then you can either take a taxi or a bus to Tianping Shan. I would say that this isn’t too hard of a hike . there aren’t any extremely steep points along the hike. this location also has a few small shops, and the have a small museum as well, where you can read more about the history. #momentsmission #suzhou #scenicspotguide #scenicspotguide #travelinspiration #naturalwonders #hikingtrails

Trekking near the city? Lingyanshan

Lingyanshan in Suzhou is a great one-day adventure near the city. A cute garden welcomes you in the entrance of the park, followed by stone stairs that will connect you to the Lingyan Temple in the summit, or the Tiangpinshan trails. You may find few structures in your way up, including some shops. Scenery from the temple is gorgeous, specially the view to Tianpin mountains. ⛩ For the temple, you climb for half an hour to reach this lovely architectural site. This Buddhist temple has around 1,600 years old. This temple remains as a monastery, and entrance fee is only 1 RMB. ⛰ For Tianpin mountain trails, you need good shoes and carry your own food/water. This is around 15km trek up and down the mountains (many times). Some people even chose some areas for rock climbing, mountain biking or running. 🍁 Ideal time to visit is autumn, so you can admire the maple forest at its best. This forest is said to be brought from Fujian province by Fan Yunlin, during Ming dynasty. Scenery is beautiful, just remember to keep your pace. Different parts of the trails have different levels of difficulty. Some areas are very challenging, you need to be precise with your steps and hang yourselve to the trees or ropes (not found in all areas). Keep in mind you can get lost if you move away from main ‘road’. Despite the fact the mountains are very popular for a weekend trip, and you will find many tourists along the way, there are no buildings or shops until you reach to the lake. #suzhoutravel #suzhou #urbanexplorer #maydaytrip #happylaborday #trekking #trek #cityoverlook #temple #climbing #onedaytrip #chinatravel #mountain #nature #hikingadventures #hikingislife #hiking #buddha #siteseeing #scenicspot #ontheroad#naturaloxygenbar

There is a tea room on the mountainside where you can sit with a cup of tea in the open air, quiet and comfortable. Don’t miss the Shoutao Lake under the Tianping Mountain. You can enjoy the Suzhou Tianpingshan during autumn if you want to have a visual feast.

🍁 Take advantage of the good weather this weekend and go to Tianping Hill to enjoy the autumn scenery. After waiting for a year, the "maple" craze is finally here. 🍁 Suzhou's Tianping Hill, Beijing's Fragrant Hills, Nanjing's Qixia Mountain, and Changsha's Yuelu Mountain are known as the "Four Best Places to See Maple Leaves in China." However, I think the colorful maples here are more beautiful. Green, yellow, orange, red, and purple leaves create a colorful scene under the blue sky and sunshine, which is truly intoxicating. 🍁 The reddest maple leaves are currently between Shijing Pond and Baiyun Pond. The scenery along the water is the most beautiful, with the pond water reflecting the maple leaves like an oil painting. 🍁 There is also a tall ancient maple tree on Tianping Hill that is slowly changing color. It was planted by Fan Yunlin, the 17th grandson of Fan Zhongyan, during the Ming Dynasty's Wanli period. It is over 400 years old and is expected to be even more spectacular in a week. ⛩ Admission: CNY 30 🚞 Transportation: Take Bus 4, You 4 Long Line, Holiday Line 6, or Bus 664 to Tianping Hill Bus Station
