  Clothes: Dramatically speaking, you need to pack clothes of all seasons for the transitional month because you may be dragged into seeming winter by only one rain. You may need shirts in the beginning while in mi-to-late October, a hoodie, cardigan or sweater with a thick jacket or a trench coat can always be seen on the street. To be on the safe side, a light down coat should be packed. For the bottom, a pair of fleece-lined pants or thick trousers keeps your lower body warm.

 Shoes: Lightweight sneakers for long time walking.
 October and November are the wettest season for Baotu Spring, when the spring water gushes out most vigorously. The spring park is also blessed with thriving colors in autumn: yellow ginkgo leaves, red maple leaves and blooming Chrysanthemum of all colors, white, gold, purple, pink, green … you name it. Ginkgo leaves carpet the stone paths, chrysanthemums bloom along the spring, and the red leaves in Wanzhu Garden are particularly eye-catching. In autumn, Baotu Spring Park offers a picturesque scene at every turn, a true palette of nature.
 The ginkgo leaves at Lingyan Temple turn completely yellow by the end of October, which is an invitation from nature in autumn. A gentle autumn breeze sends the leaves swirling in the air, carpeting the stone path like a golden rug. The three ancient ginkgo trees stand in front of the main hall, and their canopies are like open golden umbrellas, gleaming in the sunlight. This ancient temple, steeped in the rich colors of autumn, protects the pilgrims come and go.
 National Day Holiday is absolutely the no-go time. The influx of tourists may strain hotels to the limit and add to the chaotic conditions of the overcrowded scenic spots.
