China is alight with fall color from mid-October to November, and leaf-peeping season may be the luckiest time to visit.
Leaf peeping is a U.S. East Coast autumnal ritual, but that’s hardly the only locale ablaze this time of year. China is alight with fall color from mid-October to November. Leaf-peeping season’s edges may be the luckiest time to visit—fittingly, red symbolizes good fortune in Chinese culture. Travel drops off in fall, but keep in mind that’s relatively speaking since visiting Chinese attractions nearly always involves navigating a crush of people. Here are the destinations sure to have leaf-lookers booking flights this fall.
