The autumn colors of Jinshan Maple Leaf Island are stunning

In the height of autumn, Maple Leaf Island in Langxia Town, Jinshan welcomes its most beautiful season. Strolling along the forest paths of Maple Leaf Island, you are surrounded by colorful maple leaves in red, yellow, and green, intertwining like a natural palette. The maple forest here is vast, especially the lakeside scenery, which is breathtaking. The reflection of the maple leaves in the lake looks like a fairy tale world.

The best viewing time is recommended from late November to early December, when the colors of the maple leaves are richest. Try to avoid visiting when cold air arrives to not miss the prime viewing period.

For transportation, it is recommended to drive. It takes about 1.5 hours from downtown Shanghai. There are more visitors on weekends, but security personnel manage traffic, making parking convenient.
