Locals and visitors alike flock to this urban oasis to embrace the seasonal beauty. Whether it’s taking leisurely strolls along the winding paths, enjoying picnics under the golden canopy, or capturing perfect snapshots for social media, the park offers an array of activities that celebrate the essence of autumn.
“It’s like walking through a living painting,” says Li Wei, a university student who visits the park every year. “The colors are so vivid, and it’s the perfect place to relax and enjoy nature.”
Some of the top spots in the park include the Ginkgo Avenue, where rows of trees create a tunnel of golden leaves, and the Maple Grove, where the fiery reds of the maple trees contrast beautifully with the clear blue sky.
