Travel Notes | Adlovty Hills Botanic Garden

This weekend, the Mount Lofty Botanical Garden opened for the first time after the epidemic. We arrived here early in the morning to take a look at the beautiful scenery of the botanical garden in late autumn and early winter. Mount Lofty Botanic Gardens is located in the southeast of Adelaide. It has a beautiful environment and is a good place for leisure and worth a visit. To see the most beautiful autumn in Adelaide, coming here is the best choice.

Perhaps it was because of our love for beauty that we realized we were early when we arrived at the gate of the park, so we had to park the car on the side of the road to wait for the opening time. At this time, the park ranger who came to work saw us and immediately opened the door to let us enter the botanical garden in advance. In this way, we became the first tourists after reopening. Here’s a thumbs up for the humane management of the botanical garden managers!

When you enter the botanical garden, you walk into the colorful nature, stroll on the path covered with fallen leaves, and look at the woods across the lake, dark green, light green, green, light yellow, brown, and fiery red. , orange, just looking at these beautiful leaves, we are intoxicated enough. The autumn wind swept by, and the leaves fell one after another. Some danced like butterflies, some spread their wings like orioles, and some spun lightly like dancers. Looking up from a height, it looks like a vast sea of ​​gold.

The animals walked leisurely in the sunshine and were not very afraid of tourists. It should be because no one harmed them. They liked this kind of harmony between man and nature and the environment very much.

The maple leaves fall on the stone path, which makes people feel that falling leaves is also a kind of beauty. Aesthetically, this thing is very interesting. Dazzling and colorful, it is certainly a kind of beauty. But simplicity and great contrast are also a kind of beauty. Just like a large symphony or a large chorus suddenly stops while it is in progress, leaving a trumpet or a soprano to let the sound fly alone in the free space. At this time, you are looking at these only maple leaves in the warm sunshine on the mainly yellow and gray stone road, and you have no choice but to look at them.

Autumn is beautiful because it condenses the colors and emotions of nature for a whole year. "The Romance of the West Chamber" said: "Whoever comes in the morning and gets drunk in the maple forest will always shed tears when leaving." Today, whoever comes in the morning will break the wine bottle. Scattered on the roadside, the flowers and plants are drunk, holding people's sleeves, so travelers don't have to return.

Bai Juyi saw the blooming peach blossoms in the mountains and exclaimed: "The beauty of April in the world is gone, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temples are beginning to bloom. I regret that spring has nowhere to go, and I don't know where to turn." Today I accidentally saw in this botanical garden. It turns out that this is how nature paints. God knocked over the paint box and scattered it into the woods to create vivid and beautiful paintings. It’s exactly this: “It’s better to use all your ingenuity and effort than to open up to the beauty of the mountain. Don’t regret that you don’t have a master in your unique skills, just because you haven’t been to this mountain.”

People's love for red leaves has a long history. As early as the Tang Dynasty, Du Mu wrote a poem like this: "I park my car and sit in the maple forest at night, the frost leaves are as red as the February flowers." It is not too much for the poet to describe the red leaves better than the "February flowers". Although the red flowers in spring are brightly colored, they are not as deep and transparent as the red in autumn. The red leaves here are not only deep and transparent, but also have an elegant beauty. At a glance, the entire hillside is covered with red leaves, which are fiery red. Under the sunlight, they look like balls of flames burning.

Walking along the paths in the park, you will see colorful oil paintings, which are a combination of impression and freehand brushwork. Green vines, red leaves mixed with a few yellow leaves, the petiole and texture of each leaf, and the movement of each blade of grass are clearly visible; but the layout is rough and the writing is random, even with wild cursive writing. Just look at the long lines of green grass, swaying randomly, like random needlework or rattan weaving, with wild tension; while the red leaves are spread lightly, intentionally or unintentionally. Opposites complement each other and complement each other to create beauty. Although it is a natural scene, it has a strong sense of artificial decoration. The main colors are bright red and green, with bright yellow bridging the transition. It is particularly bright when exposed to the warm winter sun and soaked by dew.

I often like to take some of these natural patterns in the wild. You can just take them and set them as eye-catching wallpapers on your computer desktop or mobile phone.
