1, cable car
Not love walking students happy this year, you can see the cable car, but I do not know what time to open, if the business can be straight to the layer forest near the observation deck, think about leisurely in the high place overlooking the sea of red, there must be a different feeling.
2, the regular route
Gate - Autumn Maple Pavilion - Eagle's Nest - Immortal's Cave - Ancient Vine Path - Meat Buns - Sumac King -Layer Forest Observation Deck
The advantage of this route is that there are many red leaves, and the disadvantage is that there are also many people

Pofengling foliage season
After having breakfast in the B&B, with plenty of energy, we drove a few minutes to Pofengling at 8:00 or so. At this time, the vast majority of tourists have not yet come, the scenic area has just opened, we are the first group of tourists.
The roadside is full of harvest scenes, and further inside there are 5 cents a bowl of tea, which is a rare price these days. It is said to climb the mountain to see the red leaves, there are a lot of by-products, farmers' old bonobos, pumpkins, agricultural products, snacks, drinks, and a small donkey on the Internet red in the pretense of grinding, it is said that it is off work at 3:30 pm every day.
Following the steps easily climbed to the halfway point, the leaves with layers of dew, very dynamic, absolutely beautiful. However, when taking pictures, you have to pay attention to your feet, taking pictures without walking, walking without taking pictures.
On the way up the mountain there are many forks, each fork in the road there are two roads, the same way, a steeper, are steps, the other will have some slopes or a little more moderate steps. If you climb to King Sumac, then it will take about another 20 minutes to half an hour to get to the top.
Downhill when you will encounter a pavilion, in the absence of a pavilion will see a road sign written "downhill near road", remember not to take the original way back oh, to take the downhill near road, not only near, but also see a lot of scenery can not be seen on the mountain, such as waterfalls, clouds on the stone house lodging, and has been and folk crafts handicrafts, you can buy, you can experience the production of very good. The first thing you can do is to buy, you can experience the production is very fun. There is also a suspension bridge suitable for photographs.
This is the cloth persimmon made by non-legacy handicrafts inheritors, very fun.
By the time the tour was over and out of the scenic area, the mountain goods fair in front of the gate had already begun in full swing. Childhood memories of the sweet snack persimmon cake, which is a must-have delicacy in the fall and winter when you were a child, with a layer of white frosting bubbling on top. Oversized figs, never seen the folk art of turning flowers, steamed buns with countless drawers.
Adjacent is a snack plaza, the heat rises, very atmospheric, you can solve the problem of lunch here.
Early stay a night B&B
Said the red leaves, and then say we live in the B&B. Huangshan store in addition to the grandma's house in the yard, the best is the sumac blossom, one is more yard, one is the style more suitable for modern people, comfortable balanced with convenient life.
This time the yard or spring we live in Pofengling sumac flowers when the No. 9 yard, just as the housekeeper aunt "free time to come back ah" words, we are back, or that kind, kind aunt, or that familiar yard, just the autumn light and shadow is more dynamic.
In the afternoon, the sun greeted us on the front road, shining on the soil of the small courtyard, shining on the rafters of the eaves, it also boarded the door into the house, shining on the floor of the room, the row of bamboos outside the window, the bamboo shadows with the sunshine dance, shining me all over the golden light.
The large living room, which also serves as the living and dining room, is a communal **** space for friends of the compound, and through it are three large bedrooms, independent of each other and connected by a bamboo garden. Independent of the small courtyard is also planted with bamboo, the wind blows, the bedroom bed is also reflected in the bamboo shadow. The beds are warm and soft with small floral bedding, a long spacious couch by the window, a small table on the couch, a basket of books and children's books, and the warmth of a home is also suitable for families with children.
After a short break, it's time for afternoon tea. Afternoon tea originated in England, a slow, leisurely life, adding some energy between lunch and dinner, chatting about enjoying the rest of the time, the most comfortable. But how can it be associated with the countryside? Afternoon tea in the secluded countryside is called Farmhouse Afternoon Tea, come and see what's on offer.
In the afternoon, when the sun is setting on the dining table, the housekeeper's aunty brings in a bounty of local apples from the fall harvest, and steamed, soft, sweet pumpkins, cut into even strips and placed on an earthy, artistic tray.
The freshly steamed corn cakes are slightly sweet and filled with corn kernels. Paired with the unique northern scutellaria tea, Northwest snacks deep-fried noodle cake, the soulful light and shadow is the most beautiful moment of the day.
Huangshandian Happy Forest
Huangshandian Happy Forest, which is a few minutes south of the village entrance, is a small forest with a gurgling brook, swing chairs, a wobbly suspension bridge, a barbecue site, a busy villager's sister, and a line of sky that searches for cool breezes There are also rows of flower bushes along the brook, and the river is overgrown with aquatic plants, which are beautifully green and fluttering in the air.
The row of good-looking houses by the river is Peach Leaf Valley, many yards have their own fences for yard walls, the house is a large bed room, more than the sumac blossom some rustic flavor. Listen to the staff said, the sumac bloom newly opened two courtyards, 12 and 14, paved with white stones, than the previous are good-looking, but the guests live, we did not get a glimpse of the real appearance.
But I won't forget to ask the guests of "Grandma's House" to come or not, if not I want to go back to see the old courtyard that has lived for five generations, the greenish-gray doorway or the original tenants, now more than 90 years of age, Wang Lou Louboutin passed the door when the appearance of the old house.
Wooden windows, old corn, swinging swings, winding paths in the courtyard, and a secret area leading to a separate backyard, this is the first time I live in the hermit countryside when I live in the place, so the feelings are very deep. It is the only vegetarian B&B in Beijing, I still remember when the aunts and sisters made a fragrant dinner, I ate it before I remembered that it was vegetarian, actually so delicious.
Saying that, dinner time came, and we went back to our own yard to relive that warmth. Stewed bean curd, spread wood eggs, eggs fried tomatoes a few simple home cooking, made a different flavor.
The room rate for the Sumac Blossom is inclusive of three meals, afternoon tea, dinner, plus breakfast the next day, a small wood-fired eggs, soy sauce tofu, steamed buns, especially sticky millet porridge, pickles, fried Chinese cabbage simple and delicious.
Precautions1, Pofengling scenic area to go late bad parking, parking space is particularly limited
2, try to open the door at 8:00 on the way
3, especially small children do not hold to go, three years old, this is also forget about it, the crowd on the danger, after all, is a mountain road, there is no guardrail, just the woods, a lot of forks are easy to lose
4, the downhill must be in accordance with the signs to go! "downhill near the road"
5, Happy Forest can also eat, there are independent small house, can avoid the cold
