The themed color of October is gold, for the mountains are covered with various warm colors when the leaves are "aging". Today, we came up with this list of featured scenic spots in Shaanxi for you to enjoy the finest views in autumn.

Guifeng Mountain

The finest view shall be captured at the mountaintop. While you look far down, all of your worries just fade away.

It's not that hard to climb the mountain, but you'd better prepare well with hiking shoes and a warm jacket (a windbreaker will be good), to save energy and time.

Recently, some of the leaves in the scenic area have turned yellow, with a few turning red. In a few days, the color tones of the leaves will get fancier.

Exploring the mountains and forests via the ropeway could also be a very pleasant experience.

Taiyang Highroad

Baoji

Taiyang Highroad is the essential way heading to Huangbaiyuan Scenic Area from Taibai County, Baoji City, known as the "Landscape Avenue in the Qinling Mountains".

While the surrounding mountains are all covered in red, the road becomes the most beautiful rural highroad in the Qinling Mountains. The "2023 Golden Autumn Self-driving Red Leaf Festival" has recently been held in the Huangbaiyuan Scenic Area. If you love self-driving, feel free to travel through the Taiyang Highroad to capture the enchanting autumn.

Qin Zhidao

Yan'an

Besides constructing the world-renowned Great Wall, another significant achievement that Qinshihuang made after unifying China was building the military road in the Qin Dynasty (Qin Zhidao), which was much like the highway today. This military road was constructed by Meng Tian, an outstanding general in the Qin Dynasty from 212 BC to 210 BC. Walking on the broad Qin Zhidao, you can feel the perfect blend of vicissitudes of history and brilliant autumn colors.
