Autumn is a great time to go hiking, and the best autumn hiking destination for both the young and old in Fuyang is Yangbei Lake.
If you're new to Yangbei Lake, we suggest you set off early in the morning, starting at the main entrance and you will be rewarded with a full day of stunning scenery.
It's never a lonely walk in the early morning at the lake. You'll always meet morning runners along the way. Under the comfortable autumn sunshine, breath in the fresh air of nature. It is such a great enjoyment to do exercise here.
Fall is in full swing at Yangbei Lake now, as the sacred lotus blossoms wither and the reed flowers rustle in the wind. As you move your steps, you will see different views which are poetic and painting-like.
No wonder people say that October is golden autumn and is also one of the most beautiful seasons at Yangbei Lake.
The water is meandering and the grass is lush. Birds are flying in clusters and fishes are swimming in the lake. Together, they make for a beautiful ecological scene.
Yangbei Lake is not just about grass and trees. How can you miss the bridges when hiking around the lake? The bridges on the lake are a wide and colourful array. There are wide stone bridges, twisting wooden corridor bridges, pontoon bridges with iron ropes, and ancient rainbow bridges...
Many people come to Yangbei Lake for the "twenty-four bridges." In fact, these only include bridges which have been given a name. If we count in those nameless ones, it is not easy to include all of them. It's perfect to take a slow walk and do a count.
There are old bridges, greenways, small paths and broad avenues, so it's easy and relaxing to walk around the lake, and you can also take a lot of good photos.
The breeze at Yangbei Lake is warm and soft, so close your eyes and feel the breeze gently touch your body as you walk to the open lawn.
If you want to experience more, you may take a walk along the wetland and wait for the sun to set to experience those missed spectacular sunsets.
