Upon entering the scenic area and walking along the main road to the red maple garden, visitors can see maple leaves swaying gracefully in the sunlight. Looking into the distance, the red leaves complement the green leaves, creating a colorful natural painting against the backdrop of the blue sky and white clouds.
In previous years, the peak blooming period of red maples at Maofeng Mountain usually coincided with the May Day holiday. However, due to less rain and ample sunshine this year, the red maples have bloomed earlier and are currently in their prime viewing period, expected to last until the latter half of May.

This year, the park has added more than 200 red maple trees, bringing the total to 2,500, providing visitors with a broader area for enjoyment.
The park staff has indicated that, in addition to the red maple garden, the vicinity of Tianhu Lake presents an exceptional opportunity for sightseeing and photography. A new feature, the "Wishing Tree", has been introduced within the red maple garden, enabling visitors to leave their personal marks and memories. Visitors are welcome to visit and capture these moments.
