XI’AN, China, Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As "Chinamaxxing" continues to capture
travelers’ interest in Chinese culture and everyday life, Shaanxi offers its own
take on the trend this autumn — Shaanximaxxing. Ancient ginkgo trees are turning
gold, forests across the Qinling Mountains are changing colors and seasonal flavors
are back on the streets. These are the autumn signs you can’t ignore in Shaanxi.

The first sign comes in gold. At Ancient Guanyin Temple in Xi’an, a ginkgo tree 
believed to be over 1,400 years old turns a deep gold each autumn, covering the 
courtyard with fallen leaves. The ginkgo trees around landmarks such as the Small
Wild Goose Pagoda are also coming into color. Ancient architecture and seasonal 
colors meet, making history part of the journey rather than something confined to
museums.

Another sign appears in the Qinling Mountains. In Huangbaiyuan, Baoji, red leaves,
mountain valleys and clear streams create a layered autumn landscape. Travelers 
can hike along mountain paths, cycle through the scenery or simply stop for photos
as the forests gradually shift from green to gold and red. It offers an easy way
to complement a heritage-focused city trip with a more immersive experience in nature.

There are cultural signs too. Autumn brings a series of traditional Chinese festivals,
along with customs such as moon-viewing, family reunions and sharing seasonal foods.
Lanterns glow along the Xi’an City Wall, while markets, cultural events and local
flavors bring a festive atmosphere to the streets. Walking through these scenes 
offers travelers a closer connection to autumn in Shaanxi.

From millennia of history and golden ginkgo trees to the autumn landscapes of the
Qinling Mountains and everyday street life, Shaanximaxxing is not simply about checking
off attractions. It is about noticing the signs of the season and following them
deeper into the culture and everyday life of Shaanxi.

This autumn, follow the signs you can’t ignore and discover a richer, more layered
side of Shaanxi.
