Direct access from Jinling Style! The dawn redwoods at Xuanwu Lake look like a stunning oil painting

Nanjing's top autumn attraction is finally here! Entering Xuanwu Lake from the Jinling Style entrance is so convenient, just a few minutes' walk to step into this caramel-colored fairy tale~ Sunlight filters through the dawn redwood branches, casting dappled shadows on the lake surface. The red, orange, and yellow gradient trunks reflect in the water, making it hard to tell if the trees are painted into the scene or if the painting has fallen into the lake✨ The light from 3 to 5 pm is amazing, warm sunlight wrapped in the fresh scent of grass and trees, leaves rustling in the breeze, and even the air carries the healing essence of autumn. 📸 Photo tips: ✔️ Walk straight 200 meters from Jinling Style, turn right at Shili Changdi, and take full-body shots on the lakeside boardwalk with a background full of redwoods for stunning photos ✔️ Wear light camel or off-white coats for a perfect match with the autumn Mallard color palette ✔️ Crouch by the shore for low-angle shots to capture the double beauty of tree shadows blending with the sky After visiting the dawn redwoods, you can return to Jinling Style for afternoon tea and shopping, covering all your autumn romance in one stop~ Free entry with no detours, Nanjing’s autumn truly understands romance! 📍 Address: Jinling Style Romance Center (direct access to Xuanwu Lake from the scenic area entrance) ⏰ Best time: 3-5 pm (softest light)
