In Lu'an Village, Dawan Town, Gaoyao District, Zhaoqing (肇庆高要区大湾镇禄岸村), the rice fields have turned gold and are now at their most spectacular.

Set against rolling green hills, more than 23 hectares of rice fields form a vast golden carpet. The Nanning-Guangzhou high-speed railway cuts through the tranquil landscape, creating a striking contrast between modern speed and rural serenity.

The fields are also a great spot for portrait photography. With the harvest underway, combine harvesters work their way through the golden fields as high-speed trains race past in the background. Find the right angle, and you might capture both in one stunning shot. Please walk only on the ridges between the fields, avoid trampling the crops and keep a safe distance from the harvesters. Stay out of the railway safety protection zone and do not fly drones in the no-fly zone near the line. Beware of high-voltage towers.

Why not visit this weekend and capture this beautiful blend of nature and modern life?
