Recently, the Huaxi National Urban Wetland Park in Guiyang, southwest China's Guizhou Province, entered its prime season for autumn viewing. Towering golden sycamore trees line both sides of the riverbanks, creating a "golden avenue" filled with the rich hues of autumn, drawing numerous visitors to capture its beauty.

The Huaxi National Urban Wetland Park consists of three main areas: Huaxi Park, Shilehetan (Ten-Mile River Beach), and Pingqiao Golden Avenue. Since its designation as a National Urban Wetland Park in 2009, Huaxi district has continually advanced ecological protection and sustainable development of the park, optimizing facilities and services to make it a prime spot for residents to relax and enjoy.
