The 'Maple King' has 'five most': the earliest red, the latest fall, the most bright red, the most elegant posture, the most complete angle, it can be said that it is the 'barometer' of Guanmen Mountain maple leaves. Whenever the maple leaves turn red, the whole tree is covered with red leaves scattered down, like a burning torch, lingering red clouds.
The maple leaves on the Maple King tree have different angles, with five angles, seven angles, nine angles, eleven angles, and the rare thirteen angles, so it is known as the 'King of Maple Trees'.

I like it very much, the scenery is very good, I don't like to walk. It is worth seeing, go again in summer
On the first day of the Qingming Festival, I went to Guanmen Mountain at 8 o'clock in the morning. I was hopeful to climb the mountain. Okay, all the mountain gates were stopped. When I came back, I made a battery car in the scenic spot. I asked, saying that no one has maintained the epidemic in the past few years. The mountain roads are broken and can’t climb at all. There is no prompt when buying tickets. depressed. The battery car is 20 yuan a way. If you don't do the battery car, you can only walk along the plank road of the stream. There is only one road. How to go back? It was good to walk along the stream and listen to the sound of the water, but can you think of it? More than ten kilometers from beginning to end, no toilet is open, all are suspended, and they are not ready for business at all. Many people are looking for a toilet to be disabled, looking for a deactivated one, can you imagine what the surrounding area of the toilet is like? It's disgusting, but this is definitely a problem with the scenic spot. I forced the tourists to no way, I think I should not come again, sorry for the 90 yuan ticket, sorry for this good mountain and water.
Take my parents out for a stroll during the holiday. Because the mother's legs and feet are not very convenient, she can only push the wheelchair. Fortunately, the closed mountain is more suitable for pushing the wheelchair. Most of the roads are relatively flat. The scenery along the way is also beautiful. There are mountains and waters. Very good!
