| ¡¡The
name of the scenic spot, Autumn Grove, is
originated from the verses in a poem of Du
Mu, ¡°Stop the coach to linger and enjoy the
view of the maple trees under the setting
sun, and the frosted red Autumn maple leaves
are more brilliant and beautiful than the
Spring flowers of February¡±. Autumn Grove
is located at the island in Yinghu Lake with
water on all sides. Two wooden-imitation stone
bridges: Rote Bridge and Fragrance Flowing
Bridge, connect the island to the other parts
of the Park on the east and on the west respectively.
The island has an area of 2500 m2. The trees
with leaves turning colorful in autumn are
throughout the island, such as gingko trees,
red maples, triangle maples, green maples,
red-leaf plumb trees, torch lacquer trees,
beeches, Chinese tallow trees. In late autumn,
the tree leaves turn bright and colorful.
Looked far off, the scenic spot flames with
trees like a rosy cloud on the water surface,
and the inverted reflection in the water is
faintly visible. Across the Autumn Grove,
you will find the Hongzhuang Teahouse of style
south of Yangtze River, which is built close
to the lake. The tourists can not only enjoy
the tea at the spacious platform close to
the lake but also overlook the glistening
ripples and boats far away. The scene of the
tourists, the ripples and the boats, and the
red leaves add radiance and beauty to each
other and constitute a spectacular autumn
scene. |
