1. Zhejiang · Zhinan Village

Mid-November is the most enchanting time in Zhinan Village.

The entire village is bathed in golden ginkgo leaves and gentle warm sunlight—a single glance makes you lose yourself in the beauty.

In the early morning, the village is still quiet. The sun lazily spreads over rooftops, ginkgo trees, courtyards, and paths. Walking through the autumn breeze and falling leaves brings comfort to the heart.

2. Anhui · Tachuan

To see the most beautiful autumn colors, you must not miss Tachuan, where streams wind around houses like a picturesque poem.

By early November, Tachuan is at its most stunning, becoming a favorite base for painters and photographers.

In the early morning, Tachuan is shrouded in mist, with autumn hues and cottages appearing and disappearing in the white fog. From afar, it feels utterly poetic.

3. Yunnan · Ginkgo Village

If you love fairy-tale villages, you must not miss Tengchong Ginkgo Village.

In November, the ginkgo trees are at their most brilliant, dressing the village like a town from a fairy tale.

Golden ginkgo leaves flutter and sway in the breeze, leisurely and cozy. Sitting under a ginkgo tree with a cup of hot tea, your heart soars along with the leaves.

4. Chongqing · Shanwangping

When it comes to maple leaf viewing, the first thing many think of is Canada's romantic and picturesque "Maple Leaf Corridor." But let me tell you a secret: China has Shanwangping, which is no less stunning.

Streams babble down from the mountaintop, and by the water's edge, colorful leaves of red, yellow, orange, and more create an endlessly beautiful scene.

6. Anhui · Qinglong Bay

In Ningguo, Anhui, there is a place that resembles an ink painting by Monet—vibrant in color, dreamlike and enchanting.

Thousands of acres of metasequoia line the shallow bay, reflecting off the clear water to form a beautiful painting.

This stunning, oil-painting-like place is Qinglong Bay. Once November arrives, it intoxicates all who see it.

7. Sichuan · Bipenggou

Bipenggou is also one of China's most beautiful autumn destinations. The surrounding rolling mountains give it an added sense of grandeur.

In November, the earth showcases a dazzling red—the Red Land of Dongchuan.

At this time, the Red Land is at its most colorful and breathtaking, with vibrant hues that shift and transform unpredictably.

From a distance, it looks like a palette brushed by God, reflecting the most moving light and colors under the blue sky and white clouds.

9. Sichuan · Xinduqiao

Xinduqiao is widely recognized as a "photographer's paradise" and a "world of light and shadow." Any photo taken here is uniquely beautiful.
