Jiangdong Ginkgo Village: gold for a couple of weeks around late November

Gudong, north of Tengchong

A farming village shaded by thousands of old ginkgo trees whose leaves turn gold between mid-November and early December, carpeting the lanes and courtyards. Outside that window it's a quiet village with green or bare trees.

What locals sayVisitors say it's spectacular for about two weeks and very crowded for exactly those two weeks.
