🌾 The Unique Romance of Wuyuan in September
September in Wuyuan is a season wrapped in gentleness! Gone is the sweltering heat of summer and the bustling crowds of peak season. Instead, you’ll find a soothing breeze rustling through the rice fields. At this time, the rice paddies gradually transition from lush green to golden yellow. Standing on the field paths, you can watch the golden waves ripple against the backdrop of black-tiled white-walled houses, creating picture-perfect scenes.
The highlight? Wuyuan’s "Autumn Drying" season starts as early as August 7th! By September, it’s the perfect time to witness this tradition. Every household displays red chili peppers, yellow corn, and orange pumpkins neatly on drying racks. These colorful arrangements against the white walls and black tiles create a picturesque charm. The saying "Wuyuan’s drying marks the arrival of autumn" truly captures the essence of this romantic season. Every snapshot is Instagram-worthy! 📸
