The beauty of Xuzhou's autumn in Merad Park
📍Xuzhou Quanshan Forest Park
🚗: The car is parked in the north gate parking lot🅿️charges
Finally, after a round of cooling, Xuzhou welcomes the most beautiful autumn scenery
Taking advantage of the sunny weather, bring the eleventh to the forest park to enjoy the autumn
On both sides of the slow lane, you can see red maple leaves everywhere
The Metasequoia by the river is the Merad color system that exceeds the circle this year
The pine forest and lawn on the top of the mountain seem to be in a small Nordic town
The entire park is like a colorful painting, which is overwhelming
This weekend is the best time to watch the Metasequoia, remember to bring your family to check in
In the morning, you can be lucky to see wild macaques🐒
➡️The location of the Metasequoia is on the side of the lake in the center of the park, and you can see a large area from a distance.

The most beautiful Ginkgo Avenue in Xuzhou City~
📍Xuzhou Huaihai Memorial Tower
🎫: Free
🚇: Get off at Huai Tower Station on Line 2 and Line 3
Every year's must-visit places for ginkgo
Huai Tower, Guishan Han Tomb, Hubu Mountain
This year's autumn came a bit late
Always thinking about waiting, waiting for it to turn yellow before taking pictures
Can't stand the changing weather, suddenly entering the quick-freeze mode
Ginkgo leaves are all over the ground, and the ones on the tree branches are still green
So don't wait, if you want to take pictures of ginkgo, act now
If you don't come, the leaves will fall off~
tips: You can see ginkgo from both the north gate and the east gate, both are on the main road. The color of the Ginkgo Avenue at the Guishan Han Tomb is similar to here, and they are all green. It is recommended to choose the closer one of the two places. There are relatively fewer people at the Huai Tower.
The Big Xuzhou Mountain!
Name: Yunlong mountain
Location: Xuzhou, Jiangsu province.
Getting there: Take a one hour bullet train from Nanjing or a 1.5 hour bullet train from Zhengzhou.
Xuzhou is a modern yet beautiful city on Jiangsu. The highlight is the Tuning mountain area. You can walk or take the cable car up and down the mountain. We paid fifty RMB for the cable car and enjoyed the ride. The view from on top of the mountain is breathtaking...you can see the big lake nearby and the tall buildings of Xuzhou.

#learning place
this is where i first started to independently travel alone. I got scholarship to learning languages, eating, sleeping. I got chance to welcome all the four seasons: Autumn( everything is orange), Spring( colourful flowers and scents), Winter( super super cold), Summer ( you can get burn without umbrella 🔥) . At night, we can go out shopping at night market by just walking. it takes about 20mins walk or you can take a taxi for faster.
Terracotta Warriors
This 8th wonder of the world didn’t disappoint. We had a private guide who gave us lots of knowledge on the detail and excavation of the warriors. A good 3+ hours can be spent here after a 1 hour drive from the city.
