Hot Springs and Autumn Leaves Both Enjoyed

Who says Jiangnan only has Wuzhen and Xitang? This hidden, off-the-beaten-path town in southern Anhui completely helped me escape city anxiety— No crowded tourists, no trendy photo walls, Only golden forests, ancient village smoke, the aroma of firewood-cooked meals, And a slow life that belongs to autumn. It is—Yongquan Town, Anhui. High-speed rail goes directly to Tongling, less than half an hour by taxi from the station, A relaxed two-day weekend trip, easy to manage! 🍁 Here hides the most "authentic flavor" of Jiangnan autumn colors After autumn arrives, Yongquan looks like a spilled palette. Ginkgo leaves turn golden, maple leaves blush red, and in the misty mountains, Blue-tiled village buildings and stone paths appear faintly, Every snapshot looks like a breathing Jiangnan ink painting. I toured all the "12 Memories of Jiangnan": From fiery trees and silver flowers to dreamy glaciers, Passing through Lovers' Corridor and cool, quiet valleys, Each place feels like stepping into a childhood memory of a rural afternoon. Especially the "Climbing to the Sky is Not Hard" viewing platform, where you can see the entire forest dyed in autumn colors, calming the heart. 🏚️ What touched me most was that meal "Grandma made" Earthen stove, big iron pot, crackling firewood, The aroma of rice mixed with cured meat fills the nose— This is Yongquan firewood rice, a bite takes you back to childhood. The whole family sits around a wooden table, eating crispy rice crust, stewed dishes, handmade tofu, No takeout, no phones, Only the truest warmth in the smoke and fire of home cooking. ♨️ Soaking in hot springs while watching falling leaves—this is a heavenly life In the cool autumn, how can you miss a hot pool? "Jiubao Hot Springs" is hidden among the mountains and forests, The spring water comes from a thousand-year underground source, rich in minerals, Soaking in the warm hot springs, looking up at the starry sky, hearing the wind, All the fatigue melts away bit by bit...
