Ever wondered how autumn feels through the stroke of a brush? Step into a world where mountains glow in reds and golds, like a fiery sunset captured on silk. 🍁
Here’s what makes this vibe so timeless:
- Brush magic ✍️: Two major styles—detailed gongbi (meticulous lines) and freehand xieyi (expressive strokes) that both capture the season’s soul.
- Harvest joy 🌾: From golden rice fields to succulent crabs 🦀—it’s a feast for the eyes and the taste buds, echoing our own festival faves, from Durga Puja sweets to mooncakes.
- Nature’s cast 🍂: Deer, birds and squirrels prepping like your morning commute—everyone’s hustling before winter chill.
CGTN reporter Ioana Gomoi invites us on a dreamy stroll through palace halls and rural landscapes, centuries old yet still whispering fresh inspiration. It’s like scrolling through an Insta feed where every post is a masterpiece. 📸
Why it clicks with us? Because even in bustling Mumbai or Jakarta’s heat, we crave that moment of calm—pausing to soak in colors, vibes and that oh-so-crispy crackle of leaves underfoot… or maybe the snap of a crab leg. 😂
PS from Ioana: Don’t let your crab escape! Anyone spotted mine? 🦀
Fall in love with autumn all over again.
