I rarely use the word "stunning" to describe a place's autumn scenery

As expected of the "Number One Mountain for Red Leaves" recommended by National Geographic🍁
Overnight, the red maples have set thousands of mountains and valleys ablaze~
Stepping inside, everywhere is colorful and the forests are dyed in layers~
It feels like being in a magnificent autumn gallery🍁
.
Waiting for a sea of clouds sunrise at Xianglu Mountain
Strolling through the natural gallery letting the red leaves heal everything
Autumn in Guangwu Mountain is a rich and grand celebration of colors
All the companions on the journey were amazed by the breathtaking nature

🍁My travel route
Micang Mountain Tourist Area (Natural Gallery → Black Bear Valley → Xianglu Mountain) staying in Guangwu Mountain Town~
.
❶ Natural Gallery
An absolute soul spot. After taking the sightseeing bus up the mountain, stroll along the forest trail
On both sides are straight-up-to-the-cloud Bashan Shuiqinggang and Triangular Maples
Sunlight filters through golden leaves, the whole area
Feels like God spilled a palette of colors—every step is a scenic view
·
❷ Black Bear Valley
Known as the "Little Jiuzhaigou," streams, clear pools, waterfalls, and colorful red leaves
Complement each other beautifully, lively and elegant, an excellent place to photograph autumn water and red leaf reflections
·
❸ Xianglu Mountain
Take the cable car to the top and overlook the sea of clouds rolling beneath your feet
Looking afar, the mountains wear colorful "armor," an extremely stunning scene~
Unfortunately, it rained this time so we couldn’t see it, but the staff traveling with us
Showed us photos they took—it’s truly beautiful and magnificent🍁
.
🚘 Transportation
Self-driving: Recommended; about 4-6 hours from Chengdu or Xi’an
High-speed rail + chartered car/shuttle: Take high-speed rail to "Hanzhong Station" or "Bazhong East Station"
Then transfer to a direct tourist bus or chartered car to the scenic area (about 1.5-2 hours)
.
No need to rush through Guangwu Mountain’s autumn🍁
No need to insist on checking in at every spot
Perhaps a casual glance back
That patch of red leaves that moves you the most🍁
Is quietly waiting at some corner
Here you can completely slow down and immerse yourself
Hope you can also harvest a colorful autumn in Guangwu Mountain🍁
