Lishui's autumn is stunning! Rice fields, persimmons, and ancient villages—the ultimate autumn experience in southern Zhejiang

As October arrives, Lishui takes autumn romance to a new level! Golden rice fields, fiery red persimmons, and the lively atmosphere of ancient villages—this "autumn trio" perfectly captures the most beautiful autumn in southern Zhejiang✨! 🛖 Autumn hidden in ancient villages — Jinyun Yansha Village is full of charm Autumn in Yansha Village is filled with the warmth of traditional village life! Stone houses are scattered around, red maples and drying corn create a picturesque scene, every snapshot is a healing image~ - Must-shoot scenes: The red maple branches peeking out from the stone alley rooftops, framed by doorways, create an immersive atmosphere; villagers dry corn and chili peppers on bamboo trays, the colors rich like an oil painting; the morning stream reflects the ancient bridge and colorful trees, the mirror effect is amazing—be sure to shoot early~ - Autumn highlights: Stone houses paired with maple leaves and traditional drying scenes exude a pure, natural autumn vibe~ 🍁 Golden rice fields — don’t miss Yunhe Terraces From mid-October to early November, Yunhe Terraces turn into a golden ocean! Layers of rice waves ripple beautifully, making it hard to look away~ - Key point: Rice is usually harvested from late October to early November, so if you want to catch the golden rice waves, don’t miss the timing! - Photo spots: Visit the Jiǔqū Yúnhuán Viewing Platform to capture sunrise sea of clouds with golden rice waves; go to Qīxīngdūn for aerial shots of the terrace curves with rich layers~ - Photography tips: Wear a white long dress standing on the ridge, hold a straw hat backlit for a fairy-like effect; use a low angle with rice ears in the foreground to immerse in the harvest scene; use a drone in the early morning mist to capture the terraces’ stunning layers~ 🏮 Branches full of persimmons — warm vibes in Songyang ancient villages Yangjiatang Village and Youtian Village in Songyang hide the most comforting reds of autumn! Century-old persimmon trees hang heavy with bright red fruit against earth-toned walls, warm and photogenic~ - Best shooting time: 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM, when the slanting sun shines on the persimmons and earthen walls, even the light and shadows feel gentle~ - Atmosphere tips: Buy freshly picked persimmons from villagers, hold the red fruit and pose with the ancient tree; or sit on the stone steps at the village entrance and shoot a back view under the persimmon tree, full of autumnal laziness~
