5. Guiyang Gaopo

Situated at the Bouyei ethnic minority inhabitats of southwest Guizhou Province at an average elevation of 1,500 meters, Gaopo can be called a huge natural bonsai since it features canyons, stone forests, multilevel waterfalls, a splendid rice-field terrace as well as vast grain fields and grasslands.

With two or three stories Miao ethnic buildings can be easily spotted among the winding bamboo forests, while the renowned golden terrace is like a sea of rice paddies.

6. Shangri-la: Unbracteolated Spurge Root

Dubbed a "fairyland on earth" by many backpackers, Shangri-la is undoubtedly an ideally getaway for autumn colors.

While you are in Shangri-la, you are strongly recommended to check out the rolling fiery unbracteolated spurge roots. Did you know that they are poisonous to animals? Well maybe their scarlet color gives it away.
