After the sudden arrival of the first rain following the Beginning of Autumn, summer is swiftly drawing to a close.

How can you take full advantage of the tail end of the hot season?

Take a drive to Dingshu town in Yixing, a county-level city in Wuxi, and relax into the gentle breeze.

In Shangba village, half of the summer is spent frolicking in the stream. Climbing up the Longlin dam, the lush bamboo forests stretch into the distance, the clear stream flows gently, and the water gurgles.

Layers of greenery offer refuge from the scorching temperatures outside, and those playing in the water are carefree and joyful, stepping barefoot into the icy stream and splashing around.

In Huangchuan village, summer is most captivating after a heavy rain. The drifting clouds and mist and hazy mountains are refreshing to both body and mind.

The rushing stream from high above flows over the green mountains and rocks like a carefree child, rushing towards the endless joy of youth.

At the Huangchuan Resort Hotel, this is the time to jump into a kayak and follow the movements of the wind and trees, savoring the tranquil and secluded mountain wilderness.

After "Mofu", the last of the three ten-day periods of the hot season, the autumn chill gradually grows stronger, temporarily putting an end to the high temperatures, making it a perfect time to enjoy the mountains and rivers in Dingshu.
