Secret Realm of Colorful Forests, just 1.5 hours direct from Chengdu

Want to enjoy colorful forests in autumn without traveling far? Then come to Jinfeng Mountain (Chechangping) in Chongzhou! It only takes 1.5 hours from Chengdu, and as soon as you get off the car, you are surrounded by autumn colors. No need to go deep into western Sichuan; you can admire colorful forests and snow-capped mountains around Chengdu. As a Chengdu local, this is truly a blessing! Every snapshot here in autumn looks like a masterpiece. I highly recommend Wenchuan Wolong Ganhaizi Scenic Area, perfect for taking kids. Reds, yellows, and oranges intertwine into an oil painting, and every shot is wallpaper-worthy beauty. The entire route is covered with colorful forests—golden ginkgo, fiery red maple leaves, deep green pines and cypresses... layers upon layers, colors interwoven, like stepping into an autumn palette. When the wind blows, the leaves rustle romantically. Standing on the mountaintop, watching the morning glow slowly dye the horizon red, or seeing the sunset fill the valley, at that moment you can only sigh—“So autumn can be this romantic!” Navigation: Jinfeng Mountain, Chongzhou (search “Chechangping”). Jinfeng Mountain in Chongzhou = autumn palette + the easiest colorful forest hiking spot near Chengdu. No need to travel far to experience a whole romantic autumn.
