If you lucky, you will admire a forest of colorful Rhododendron flowers, or amazing sky of maple leaves. The two species of trees look like the cheeky queens of this mysterious forest. To meet maple leaves you have to go in October and November, and to meet Rhododendron flowers you must to go in March and April every year. However, it depends a lot on weather factors. If the climate that year too cold, Rhododendron would sleep with countless buds. And if rains a lot, maple leaves is covered by moody color. I am not a lucky guy, it was so cold and heavy rainy. But i will be back, not just once, until see them.
