Limited to late autumn! The Xichang Chrysanthemum Garden is in full bloom, and this wave of “chrysanthemum” beauty is here for you to enjoy~

As the late autumn wind blows, many places start to “fade,” but not Xichang! The chrysanthemum garden hidden in the city just opened, gathering all the gentleness and brilliance of autumn in one place~Golden yellow, snowy white, pale purple, and pink chrysanthemums crowd together, nodding their heads “to greet you” with the breeze, like a spilled palette of colors! Friends, don’t stay home any longer—this “chrysanthemum viewing limited edition” event only comes once a year! Step into the chrysanthemum garden: instantly fall into a golden fairy tale world🍂 As soon as you reach the garden entrance, you’re wrapped in a wave of floral fragrance—not the overwhelming kind, but a fresh, light scent with a hint of sunshine. Taking a deep breath feels like your lungs are being cleansed~Walking further in is even more stunning, with dozens of chrysanthemum varieties filling the garden, as if you’ve stepped into a fairy’s secret garden! Look at the “Golden Back Red,” with petals edged in passionate red and a warm golden back. When the sun shines, it looks like the petals are gilded, and the breeze makes them shimmer; then there’s the “Snow Sea,” clusters of snowy white small chrysanthemums with petals as fine as fluff, soft to the touch. No wonder many friends squat nearby taking endless photos, their phone storage almost full!🌿 There are also several “chrysanthemum waterfalls” in the garden, with vine-like chrysanthemums hanging from flower racks in strings of pink and white. Walking underneath feels like passing through a tunnel made of flowers. Any photo taken here is an “autumn atmosphere masterpiece”! Occasionally, you might meet gardeners tending the flowers, who will smile and introduce: “This is the ‘Ink Chrysanthemum,’ with deep purple petals that look even more special at night~” Listening to their introductions and seeing the sea of flowers, you can’t help but slow your pace. Who knew late autumn could be so lively and gentle! More than just flower viewing! The chrysanthemum garden’s “autumn limited activities” are so fun🎪 Don’t think coming to the garden means just “standing and looking.” The organizers have packed the fun to the max! Friends, remember these activities—they’ll keep you entertained so much you won’t want to leave~ At the entrance, there’s a “Chrysanthemum DIY shop” where you can make your own small daisy bouquet, choosing your favorite colors. The floral artist patiently teaches you how to tie it up. Once done, take it home and put it in a vase to keep the garden’s fragrance for days~Nearby is the “Chrysanthemum Lantern Riddle Area,” with colorful lanterns hanging and riddles all about chrysanthemums. Guess correctly and you can exchange for a small potted plant. Many kids pull their parents along to guess, their cheerful chatter sweeter than the flower scent~✨ The most photogenic is the “Autumn Check-in Installations”! There’s a “Autumn Character Frame” made of dried flowers—stand behind it and it feels like you’ve framed the whole autumn in your photo; and the “Chrysanthemum Swing,” where sitting and gently swinging with a backdrop of golden chrysanthemums, the breeze blowing your hair and petals together, every snap is a “like magnet” on social media~By the way, the sunlight around 3 to 4 pm is the gentlest, casting a soft slanting glow on the flowers, making even shadows look soft and tender. Photos taken then make your skin look especially good! Stay here for worry-free chrysanthemum viewing! The Lihao Holiday Hotel takes care of your comfortable time🏨 After a day of fun, you’ll definitely want a comfortable place to rest, right? Friends, trust me and head straight to the Xichang Lihao Holiday Hotel—it’s practically a tailor-made accommodation choice for your chrysanthemum viewing trip! First, the location is unbeatable! The hotel is right in the city center, only a 15-minute drive from the chrysanthemum garden. No need to get up early to rush; you can leisurely finish breakfast before heading out to enjoy the flowers, making your mood even better~Plus, the hotel offers free parking, so self-driving friends don’t have to worry about finding a spot. Park your car and step out easily—super convenient! Comfortable accommodation is also key! The hotel rooms are spacious and bright, with windows opening to the lively cityscape. After a tiring day, lying on the soft bed melts away all fatigue~What’s most thoughtful is that the hotel is surrounded by Xichang’s specialty foods! After viewing chrysanthemums at night, a 5-minute walk gets you authentic “Xichang Fire Pot Barbecue,” with sizzling roasted pork and local rice wine—an autumn top combo~There’s also “Drunken Shrimp,” “Tuotuo Meat,” and “Fried Erkuai,” various local snacks that will have you eating until you can barely walk. No more worries about “staying somewhere remote with no food” anymore!🍜 If you want to explore other parts of Xichang the next day, the hotel is right by a bus stop, making trips to Qionghai Lake and Lushan Mountain very convenient, no detours needed~A hotel with “great location, free parking, and abundant food” is truly the “ceiling” of travel accommodations. Friends, don’t hesitate when booking! Late autumn in Xichang becomes especially lively because of this chrysanthemum garden. Surrounded by flowers, feeling the gentle breeze, staying in a comfortable hotel, and eating authentic food—that’s what autumn should be like~Friends, don’t let busyness steal the beauty of autumn. Quickly invite your friends and family to Xichang Chrysanthemum Garden for this “autumn date”! Trust me, when you stand in the sea of flowers, you’ll be amazed: late autumn can be this beautiful!🌼
