The Yuniao River will soon be at its most beautiful, as the trees along the river begin to change color.

The Yuniao River, whose name alludes to an abundance of fish and birds in Chinese, is located at the junction of Mouping district and High-tech Zone in Yantai.

In late autumn, redwoods stand tall against the banks of the river, their reflections resembling a brightly-colored oil painting.
