If you want to see maple leaves, you can go to Longqi Mountain. You can see it there. The most important thing is that autumn is a good time to travel. You can also go out to relax by the way. Let's have a look at the scenery on Longqi Mountain.
Metasequoia Avenue
After entering the scenic area, winding up the winding mountain road, the first thing that attracts you must be the most beautiful autumn scenery.
As autumn approaches, Longqi Mountain takes off its summer clothes and puts on its coat again, forming a golden ocean. Here, the fallen leaves on the ground seem to be a golden carpet, and the water fir trees on both sides are towering into the clouds. Looking down and up, they are all breathtaking beauty.
Looking at the reflection of the fir trees on the water, I can see that it's a big picture.
Maple leaf and Gucuo Bridge
Go straight along the highway and you can get to Gucuo bridge.
The old house bridge, which was built in the late Ming Dynasty and the early Qing Dynasty, has been renovated. The red color on the new paint and the maple leaves on the side are very interesting.
The new buildings on the bridge will inevitably change their flavor, but the orchid River underneath is the original beauty. The rocks and maple trees in the stream present a beautiful picture of autumn.
The ancients said: Parking love maple forest late, frost leaves red in February flowers. The scenery in the poem is incisively and vividly reflected by the orchid river.
A group of willows with stories
The 12 towering Cryptomeria fortunei have a magical legend. It is said that the Hakkas settled here in those years, but they often encountered natural disasters and failed to get enough grain. Later, a monk traveled here and ordered the villagers to plant 12 Cryptomeria fortunei trees. Since then, the weather has been good every year and the crops have been abundant.
The 12 Cryptomeria fortunei trees live for 12 months in a year, as well as the heavenly stems and earthly branches. One Cryptomeria fortunei is in charge of farming for one month, which is responsible for the allocation of rainwater, irrigation of grain fields, and protection of all living beings.
In addition to 12 Cryptomeria fortunei, there is also a "Taxus chinensis var. mairei king" hidden in Longqi Mountain. With a diameter of 2.36 meters at breast height, a height of 37.8 meters, and a crown of 17.7 meters, the tree king is more than 1590 years old and can be regarded as the "living fossil" of Jiangle.
Sunrise, sunset and sea of clouds
Although there are many peaks in Longqi Mountain, there are more than 40 peaks more than 1000 meters above sea level, the main peak of Jiangle County is only 1620.4 meters, less than 800 meters more than Gushan, which is well known by Fuzhou people.
Longqi Mountain in autumn is as beautiful as the forest in the painting.
At night, the low temperature makes a lot of water vapor deposition, and in the next morning, they sublimate into a sea of unpredictable clouds. In Longqi Mountain, which is only 1000 meters above sea level, you can see the sea of clouds everywhere. Walking in the mountain is like stepping into a fairyland.
On the mountain in autumn, the most suitable thing is to watch the sunrise and sunset. If the thickness of the sea of clouds is right, you can see the first light of the morning gradually dispel the clouds and fog, dispelling the darkness of the sky.
Sunset is another style. Gradually setting sun, the whole sky dyed blood red, slowly sink into the sea of clouds, with the last trace of afterglow will also dye the sea of clouds with its color, then escape into the dark, waiting for the next dawn.
Paper making culture inherited
There is also Xishan papermaking technology which has been handed down for thousands of years in Longqi Mountain. Up to now, there are still several papermaking workshops in the scenic area. Papermaking technology of intangible cultural heritage is still shining in Longqi Mountain.
It is said that during the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, Xishan paper compiled and printed Sikuquanshu, which spread in foreign countries. Looking back on the revolutionary years, Xishan paper printed line bound edition of Mao Zedong's poems is famous at home and abroad.
The simple and vigorous thousand year old trees and the mottled humanistic atmosphere complement each other, forming a unique forest experience of Longqi Mountain. The most beautiful season is now, the autumn time of Longqi Mountain once a year. Let's have a pleasant autumn tour before the beginning of winter!
