In late autumn to early winter, ancient ginkgo trees turn a brilliant shade of gold in the villages of Wudang district in Guiyang, capital of Southwest China's Guizhou province.

The golden leaves flutter gently in the breeze, like butterflies dancing among the branches and pathways, adding a warm, seasonal charm to the countryside. The village is bathed in a soft, golden glow as sunlight filters through from above, creating a serene, picture-perfect scene. Strolling through the woodland, with the crunch of fallen leaves underfoot and a faint fragrance in the air, one can't help but marvel at Wudang's unique beauty in this golden season.

Shuitan town boasts nearly 60 mu (4 hectares) of ginkgo forests, making it an ideal spot for photography. This picturesque location attracts many visitors to picnic, enjoy tea, and gather with friends, savoring time in this beautiful setting.
