Speaking of my acquaintance with Pofengling, it was due to the season when the coggygria flowers bloomed two years ago. At that time, I had a great impression of this place. I have always wanted to go to Pofengling during the season when the red leaves are full of mountains. Take a walk and see the most beautiful Chinese red. When autumn and winter met last year, I was fated to walk into Pofengling, but missed the best viewing period of red leaves. There were only twos and threes of red leaves left on the tree. This year is the eighth Red Leaf Festival in Pofengling, and I will not miss it again.

Pofengling is more than 50 kilometers away from Beijing and more than 210 kilometers away from Shijiazhuang. After getting off the highway, it is not far from the scenic spot. It is extremely convenient to drive here.

If Xiangshan Mountain in late autumn is "red all over the mountains and stained by layers of forests", then Pofengling is "red leaves and green middle reaches, with colorful exercises dancing in the sky". Red, orange, yellow, green... or thick or light colors, layer by layer The ground surges, complementing the blue sky and white clouds, like a series of colorful exercises flying in the sky.

Pofengling is rich in vegetation, and the majority of tree species in the original secondary forest are Cotinus cotinus. It is the largest gathering place of wild Cotinus cotinus in the entire North China region. Cotinus is also known as red leaf, red leaf cotinus, yellow cotinus, etc., and its leaves are elliptical. Every autumn, when the temperature difference between day and night is greater than 10℃, in just a few days, the color of the cotinus leaves will change at a rate visible to the naked eye and gradually turn red.

In addition to cotinus cotinus, the red leaf varieties in Pofengling also include Acer truncatum, persimmon, Wujiao Maple, Torch, etc. The picky National Geographic describes Pofengling as the most spectacular mountain red leaf landscape.

The mountain of Pofengling is gentle, with an altitude drop of 370 meters. It cleverly integrates red culture, farming culture and food culture. The more than 2000-acre red leaf sightseeing area is scattered on the mountain with a drop of 370 meters, and is run through by a 6000-meter circular trail up and down the mountain. This 6000-meter-long mountain road also contains a touching story of red baskets. When this circular trail was built, the building materials were all made of local rocks, while the sand and cement were completely carried to the mountain by manual labor.

Nowadays, the red beilou has also become a station for going up and down the mountain, where people can rest and rest. Or eat authentic mountain food here and take a photo with the golden harvest of autumn. Baskets of corn and sorghum, old pumpkins and big wax melons on the table in twos and threes, and millet and chili hanging on the wall can easily create a perfect autumn color.

Little squirrels holding pine cones, donkeys pulling mills, wine hidden in cellars, thatched houses hidden among the leaves, carriages full of grain... As light and shadow follow each other along the way, there will always be big and small, more or less Touched, so little by little, I walked deep into my heart in silence and touched the heartstrings.

The stone path slopes up the Hanshan Mountains in the distance, and there are families deep in the white clouds.

Parking and sitting in the maple forest at night, the frost leaves are redder than the February flowers.

Du Mu's quatrain, which describes and praises the beautiful scenery of late autumn, looks so vivid and vivid when placed in Pofengling. What is precious is that the most beautiful autumn scenery of Pofengling is that it works hard without the berating and whipping of the frost and quietly enters the best viewing period. The red leaves in the mountains of Pofengling start to turn red from the top of the mountain and are gradually spreading from the mountainside to the foot of the mountain.

Watching autumn and seeing the red leaves in Pofengling will give people a very comfortable feeling. The mountains here are flat and easy to climb, and the stone roads are winding and winding, with many bifurcated roads.

A leaf knows the autumn, and three thousand weak waters. If I take a ladle and drink it, there will always be one or a few trees that will be favored alone. Those who love it very much will put up various Pose around this tree and recess various shapes.

Live in beautiful stays in the mountains and eat authentic food

It's late to go down the mountain and you're tired from shopping. There are authentic mountain stays not far from the foot of the mountain. There is always one for you at Grandma's B & B, Cotinus Blooms, and Peach Leaf Valley. The path is paved with bluestone slabs, tiles are made of stone slices, and gray walls are made of black tiles. The simple courtyard is full of poetry.

Lao Lao's Home B & B is located in the village at the foot of Fengling Mountain on Youlan Mountain Slope. It passes through mini alleys and pushes open old wooden doors with a sense of age. The tables and stools placed randomly in the courtyard give a feeling of being at home, just like a little nephew returning to grandma's house. There are bamboo baskets and baskets hanging on the wall, and there are millstones and inverted vats in the corner. A bumper harvest of corn is hung on both sides. The warm sunshine shines on the courtyard, leaving mottled shadows and locking the time of immortality.

"Grandma's Home" is the earliest B & B here open to the public. If you want to stay here, you need to make an appointment in advance. If you don't make an appointment, it is unlikely that you want to stay in "Grandma's Home" directly that day. At this time, it is also a good choice to choose to live in Cotinus Flower Blossom or Peach Leaf Valley. If there are guests staying in the courtyards that day, a sign saying "Please Don't Disturb If there are guests staying in that day, it is very simple to distinguish whether there are guests. matter.

That night, we stayed in the "Yellow Cotinus Flower Blossom Courtyard No. 3". It seemed to be an ancient courtyard, but there was a unique hole in it. The lush bamboo trees, the red creeper, the corn piled on the wall, the sun shines through the large window, spreading warmth into the house, and the mood will also become brighter.

About three or five friends moved to Xiaomaza, and everyone gathered around, had a delicious rice pot, accompanied by red wine, and talked, and the laughter would fill the memories of the entire autumn day.
