Autumn Maple Leaves at Yuanmingyuan Reach Their Peak

The autumn scenery of Yuanmingyuan has reached its peak with the vibrant hues of maple leaves.
In the late autumn of Yuanmingyuan, the red leaves are in their prime.
Sunlight slants through the branches, illuminating the orange and red leaves, as if the entire garden is draped in a warm filter.
By the remnants of stone pillars and the tranquil lakeside, the fiery red leaves of the trees contrast with the aged architecture.
Reflected in the water, the scene ripples with the breeze, and the maple leaves gently fall, covering the paths.
As footsteps tread on them, a soft rustling sound is heard.
In this moment, the beauty of imperfection intertwines with the fervor of nature, creating an exceptionally moving scene.
Location: East Gate of Yuanmingyuan (turn left after entering).
