Early winter in Wuyi, a romantic date with the dawn redwoods

In early winter, Wuyi Mountain sheds the fiery passion of autumn and brews a unique tenderness and romance. When the north wind gently brushes over Wuyi’s peaks, the dawn redwoods have long lost their green robes, their layered branches dyed in varying shades of red, from light pink to crimson, as if spilling the palette of heaven and earth, spreading across the mountains and fields. Walking in the mountains, the cool bluestone slabs underfoot, and looking up reveals stretches of redwood forests. Sunlight filters through the leaves, scattering golden specks on the ground. When the wind blows, the redwood leaves gently sway, like a tender greeting from the wilderness. Occasionally, a clear stream winds beneath the redwoods, its water crystal clear, reflecting the red of the forest. As the ripples shimmer, even time seems to slow down. No need to deliberately seek a path; stroll slowly along the winding Jiǔqū trail, where every sight is a poetic scene. The redwoods stand scattered, peaks accompany, the clear stream meanders, and the breeze carries the crispness of the mountains and the faint fragrance of plants, brushing past hair and shoulders. Occasionally, a bamboo raft drifts slowly down Jiǔqū Creek, the raftman’s mountain songs carried by the wind, intertwining with the birdsong in the forest, creating the most enchanting wilderness symphony. This is the unique early winter romance of Wuyi Mountain—no desolation, only vibrant colors everywhere, only the tranquility and healing of the mountains and waters. No need to travel far to find scenery; just step into Wuyi’s wilderness and let the warmth of the redwoods and the clarity of the stream fill all your senses. Seize this beautiful moment and accept an early winter invitation in Wuyi, beneath the redwoods, beside the clear stream, and embrace the tenderness of this land.
