Feng County
Feng County is located at the junction of the three provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu, and Sichuan. With a forest coverage rate of 79.78%, the county boasts competing peaks, gorges, cliffs, and ridges, interwoven with plains, caves, springs, and streams. The ancient plank road traverses the entire region, historically known as the 'throat of Qin and Shu, the key to the north of Han.' As autumn approaches, the leaves begin to turn yellow, interspersed with red, creating a marvelous scene as if God had spilled a palette of colors. Every angle presents a picturesque landscape.
Jiudianliang
From a distance, the mountains appear layered and the forests are dyed in rich colors, resembling a heavily inked landscape painting. Up close, the various shades of red leaves are harmoniously interspersed, creating a picturesque scene with diverse and unique beauty. The vibrant colors compete with each other, sketching a colorful scroll. In the early morning, a thin mist envelops the mountainside, with a few farmhouses faintly visible in the clouds. The air is filled with the fragrance of wildflowers and wild fruits, akin to the legendary fine wine that intoxicates people.
Lingguan Gorge is the first gorge on the Jialing River and the northernmost rugged area, spanning the border between Shaanxi and Gansu provinces. It is also one of the dangerous sections where the Baoji-Chengdu Railway crosses the Qinling Mountains. From late autumn to early winter, the entire Lingguan Gorge is colorful, with red leaves covering the mountains, making it exceptionally charming. The combination of mountains and water, red and green, is truly captivating!
Chenjiawan
Chenjiawan Village is a must-pass route to Maiji Mountain and Tongtian River Forest Park. In autumn, the beauty of Chenjiawan reaches its peak, making it a paradise for photographers. The leaves here are bright red, and the layers of forests are dyed in various colors. After being washed by rain, the red leaves appear particularly enchanting, blending heaven and earth into one. Accompanied by rain and mist, it gives people a feeling of being in a fairyland. Haystacks, cooking smoke, and small paths in the fields, under the backdrop of light and shadow, create the most beautiful picture of autumn. The thick fallen leaves on the ground make a crunching sound when stepped on.

Tongtian River National Forest Park
Tongtian River is a pristine area with a forest coverage rate of 98.6%. It boasts vast natural forest vegetation landscapes, comparable to the Zhangjiajie Stone Forest. It is said that Tang Monk passed through this place on his journey to obtain Buddhist scriptures. The Miao'er River within the park meanders westward, reaching the top of the Qinling Mountains, symbolizing 'the path to the Western Heaven,' which is how the park got its name.
Qiang Village
The Qiang ethnic group is not only found in Sichuan; there is also a long history of Qiang culture in Feng County. It is said that Qiang people have lived here for five thousand years. Next to Lingguan Gorge, along the Jialing River, an ancient architectural complex along the river comes into view. This is the Stone Qiang Village. The tall and solemn Qiang watchtowers are densely embedded in the embrace of the deep Qinling Mountains. The ancient and mysterious ram's head totem is solemn and sacred. Here, you can see the graceful and beautiful Qiang Sarang dance.
