When is the best time to see the mountains on the road?

Pofengling of Youlan Mountain, located in Zhoukoudian, Fangshan District, southwest of Beijing, may have arrived a week or two earlier. The red leaves of Pofengling are not "all the mountains are red and all the forests are dyed", but the colors of crimson, orange, orange, light yellow, dark green and light green are intertwined in the mountains, which is a different kind of scenery. Walking up the steps along the stone road, you can see Cotinus coggygria with oval leaves. The leaves of cotinus coggygria will slowly transition from green to yellow, and then dark red. Compared with this, the colors in the mountains have such beautiful changes. There are tall persimmon trees in the mountains, and red persimmons are hanging on the branches. Autumn is also a good time to eat persimmons.

Pofengling is about 500 meters above sea level. Follow the route to climb to the top of the mountain and get down about 6 kilometers. Interestingly, the stone road on the mountain is engraved with meters every 100 meters. The intensity of mountain climbing here is not strong, and it is quite suitable for exercising your legs and feet on weekends.

Except for fungus, yuba and kelp, most of the local vegetables are grown by themselves, including tofu.
