In winter, Wushan, the mountain is full of red leaves like colorful glow, and the colorful glow reflects the Three Gorges every year. In the early 80s of the last century, a movie called "When the Mountains Are Full of Red Leaves" made people remember the fiery red leaves on both sides of the Gorge River while being moved by pure love.
In Wushan, from the beginning of December to the middle of January of the following year, it is the time of red leaves in the mountains. Take a boat down the river from Wushan County, as far as the eye can see, the high gorge Pinghu formed by the confluence of the Yangtze River and the Daning River is beautiful and picturesque. Crossing a bridge, Qingshi Village, Baolong Town, by the river, looms in sight. The blue bricks and gray tiles, scattered Bayu dwellings, dotted with red leaves all over the mountains. The winter sun is warmly sprinkled, and the light spots dance on the red leaves, and the ground is full of red, yellow, and yellow elves.
Across the river from Qingshi Village is the famous Wushan Goddess Peak. As the first of the twelve peaks of Wuxia, Shennu Peak is a collection of many legends and poems and songs, and is the most romantic scenic spot for watching autumn leaves. Walking up the hiking trail, you can see clusters of red leaves blooming like flowers, full of ravines and ravines, like burning flames. Throughout the ages, the poems of the goddesses of Wushan are as bright as stars, and many of them also praise the red leaves of Wushan. "Wuxia Yunkai Shrine of the Goddess, the shadow of the green pond mangrove is uneven", "Lihua Wenyu Dynasty state, Cuibi Danfeng night heart"...... Mountaineering and looking into the distance, the red leaves on both sides of the mountain are like two huge screens like colorful clouds erected on the riverside, guarding the quiet and beautiful Wuxia, and the bridges between the north and the south, and the boats cruising back and forth, together constitute a three-dimensional picture scroll of movement and stillness and movement.
After seeing the autumn leaves of the Goddess Peak, you can take a cruise and enjoy another beauty of the autumn leaves on both sides of the Goddess Creek. The cruise ship enters the mouth of the stream, and the red leaves on both sides of the bank are in full swing, as if they are within reach, layer upon layer, and the turquoise stream reflects each other, which is beautiful. In winter, the Yangtze River reaches the highest water level of 175 meters, and the water level of the canyon rises, and the cruise ship can enter the depths of the canyon to see the Qiyun Peak, the Rising Peak, and the Jingtan Peak in the 12 peaks of Wuxia.
Get off the boat from the Shennu Creek Pier and walk for 5 minutes to Qingshi Village. On the other side of the river, in the midst of smoke, the goddess peak looming in the sky. Looking closer, the autumn leaves and characteristic buildings cover each other, and they are everywhere in the painting. No wonder some tourists praised: "The smoke and rain on the Goddess Peak, the red leaves fly under the bluestone village." "Because of the impoundment of water in the Three Gorges, many villagers along the river in Qingshi Village have moved out, and only about 20 families remained. The village party secretary said.
Enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Xiajiang River in winter, and the red leaves and clear water reflect each other. In the season of smashing the depression, stop at the bluestone and taste the "red leaves of the rivers and mountains", which makes people feel warm.
