Must-capture super spots for autumn at Niushou Mountain, instantly legendary

The autumn breeze sweeps through Jinling City🍁 This ancient capital of the Six Dynasties then opens up🏯 a limited edition golden romance🧡 I found several hidden secret spots among the mountains and waters⛰️ When ginkgo meets the ancient temple🏯 Glazed pagoda embraces the maple leaves🍁 Every corner seems to be covered with a light and shadow filter✨ . 📍Niushou Mountain Cultural Tourism Area . 📸 10 top photo spots for autumn at Niushou Mountain (nanny-level guide) ✅ Right side of the entrance to the Buddha Summit Sacred Realm: P1️⃣ Low angle shot of the mirror-like summit, flip the photo and it instantly becomes a "sky mirror" ✅ Pond on the right side of the Buddha Summit Palace: P1️⃣2️⃣ Building reflections overlapping with blue sky and white clouds, like stepping into a fairyland ✅ Archway of the outer corridor of Buddha Summit Palace: P3️⃣ Frame people and the Buddha Summit Pagoda with the archway for a framed composition ✅ Front of Buddha Summit Palace (durian shape): P7️⃣ Golden sunlight at noon in autumn pours down, enhancing texture fully ✅ Outer corridor of Buddha Summit Palace: P🔟 In the soft autumn light, every casual shot is a minimalist masterpiece ✅ Pond outside the entrance to the underground palace: P5️⃣ Buddha Summit Palace and Buddha Summit Pagoda in the same frame; reflections look great if the wind is calm ✅ Corridor at the left entrance of Buddha Summit Pagoda: P6️⃣ Autumn framed view of Hongjue Temple Pagoda, full of poetry ✅ Main gate of Buddha Summit Pagoda entrance: P8️⃣ Capture the gaze between the red gate and the Buddha statue ✅ Underground 5th floor palace: P2️⃣, 4️⃣, 9️⃣, 1️⃣3️⃣ Palace under wide-angle lens, very stunning ✅ Zen Realm Grand Reclining Buddha: P1️⃣1️⃣ Use telephoto to shoot a portrait with the Reclining Buddha, or wide-angle to capture the grandeur of the Reclining Buddha Palace . 🏯 Autumn travel tips: 1️⃣ If time allows, the pink muhly grass near Youth Square, the reed clusters on Yinlong Lake Road, the front garden of Buddha Summit, and the dawn redwood forest opposite Yinlong Lake are also beautiful and worth visiting 2️⃣ It’s recommended to start from Niushou Mountain at dusk; a ten-minute taxi ride takes you into a Tang-style dream—Jinling Small Town. The autumn evening breeze wrapped in osmanthus fragrance is the perfect time to stroll through Yanjie. When the lights come on, the pavilions and towers glow brilliantly, as if the scenes from "A Dream of Splendor" come alive before your eyes. Night tours are truly the soul of Jinling Small Town.
