November has painted Yantai in breathtaking autumn colors as the coastal city's foliage season reaches its spectacular peak. Eight stunning locations across the region are drawing visitors with their unique seasonal displays.

The transformation begins at Fushan's Dongting Nature Park, where golden ginkgo trees contrast with crimson maple leaves, creating picture-perfect scenes. Yuniao River Park offers equally mesmerizing views with its famous dawn redwoods reflecting in tranquil waters. For panoramic vistas, visitors flock to Nanshan Mountain's fairy-tale landscapes and Hantong Mountain's sweeping slopes, now ablaze with autumn colors.

Beyond leaf-peeping, the destinations offer diverse experiences — from Luoshan Mountain's gold mining heritage tours to Cishan Mountain's cultural attractions featuring museums and relaxing hot springs. The Botanical Garden combines vibrant foliage with family-friendly activities, while cozy cafes and bookstores provide perfect spots to enjoy the crisp autumn air.

With ideal conditions and foliage at its peak, now is the perfect time to witness Yantai's spectacular autumn transformation before the colors fade.
