Global Autumn Pursuit Plan | 3 Days 2 Nights in Arxan, a Reverse Journey to a Hidden Gem!

Tired of the crowds during National Day? Why not avoid the masses and start a reverse journey. Autumn in Arxan is one of the earliest autumn colors in China. Golden birch trees, the azure volcanic Tianchi Lake, hot springs intertwined with forests, like a richly colored oil painting. No crowded crowds, only the quiet and magnificent beauty of nature. 🗓️ 3 Days 2 Nights Itinerary Day 1: Arrive in Arxan and head straight to Arxan National Forest Park to check in at Tuofengling Tianchi Lake—blue lake water surrounded by golden forests, every shot looks like a postcard! Stay overnight in a guesthouse inside the park and enjoy the tranquility of starry views from your window. Day 2: In the morning, visit Rhododendron Lake and Shitang Forest. In the afternoon, experience drifting on the Unfrozen River, flowing downstream surrounded by autumn colors. Stay at a hot spring hotel in the evening and soak in the natural hot springs to relieve fatigue. Day 3: Go to Bailang Town Deer Park to get close to the adorable reindeer, then head back in the afternoon with a heart full of autumn memories. 🚗 Transportation Tips You can fly to Ulanhot or Arxan Yiershi Airport, then take a bus or charter a car. Self-driving is highly recommended, as the scenery along the way is beautiful and you can stop anytime to take photos. 🍁 Travel Tips - Best time: Mid to late September through early October - Clothing guide: Large temperature difference between morning and evening in autumn, use the "onion" layering method and bring a light jacket for comfort. - Must-try: Forest hiking, Tianchi Lake sightseeing, hot spring experience, interacting with reindeer 💰 Cost Reference Accommodation for 2 nights: 400-1000 RMB + Tickets and transportation: 400-600 RMB + Meals: 300-400 RMB = Total cost about 1100-2000 RMB. ✨ Experience "Autumn in Arxan is breathtakingly beautiful, like stepping into a fairy tale world, no need to avoid crowds when taking photos!"
