When does the maple leaf in Qixia Mountain turn red?

Xiashan Scenic Area in Nanjing is a unique scenic spot full of humanistic feelings. Every autumn, there will be a large area of red maple leaves here, attracting a large number of tourists to visit and get a good life experience here.

Unconsciously, the last solar term "first frost" in autumn has quietly arrived. The arrival of the first frost means that the weather is getting colder and colder, and it has really entered the late autumn.

It's late autumn. Is the red maple in Qixia Mountain red? Recently, many people have been asking about the best viewing period of red maple in Qixia Mountain. Today, I will share with you the annual maple appreciation strategy of Qixia Mountain.

Today, in addition to more than 500 ancient maple varieties, there are thousands of newly planted varieties in Qixia Mountain. In recent years, colorful trees such as red maple have been planted vigorously in Qixia Mountain, and now there are 400,000 to 500,000 colorful trees in the whole scenic spot.

It can be said that the whole scenic spot is red maple. Qixia Mountain is not only one of the four scenic spots to enjoy maple in China, but also the most colorful place for tree species and maple species. Forty or fifty varieties of red maple gather together to make Qixia Mountain beautiful.

Since 200 1, the Red Maple Festival has been held in Xiashan every year for about half a year. This year's "Autumn Qixia" Hongfeng Art Festival (65438+1October 10 to 65438+February 20th) is in full swing and will end on February 20th. There are many varieties of red maple in Xiashan, including maple, pentagonal maple, triangular maple and feather maple. The ancient varieties of red maple are mostly "maple" varieties, which are as famous as Tianping Mountain in Suzhou, one of the four scenic spots for enjoying maple.

It's just that Qixia Mountain introduced some new varieties on the original basis. These new varieties are different in time and speed. In this way, the maple viewing period in Qixia Mountain has been greatly extended. For example, Acermono began to turn red quietly as long as the weather was a little colder, which is why friends who went to 5438+ 10 were able to photograph the red maple.

If you want to see the magnificent scenery of Qixia Mountain, the mountains are all red and the forests are all dyed, this time is a little early, in the middle of next month. The best viewing period of Qixia Mountain this year is expected to be 165438+ 10/5 to 65438+February 5. If there is continuous rainfall during the best viewing period, the beauty of the forest will end early.
