Among the many parks in Beijing, the Ancient Pagoda Park is definitely one of the less popular ones, but its scenery is no less stunning. Within the park, there is a fitness trail that runs through all the beautiful sights. With few people and beautiful scenery, it is a great place for leisure, fitness, flower viewing, and taking children out for a walk. The Ancient Pagoda Park is located in the Wangsiying area in the southeastern part of Chaoyang District, Beijing. It consists of four major scenic areas: the West Gate area, the Central Lake area, the Mountain Flower Garden area, and the Ancient Pagoda area, covering an area of 55.7 hectares. The park is named after a Ming Dynasty Ten Directions Buddha Pagoda built in 1545 that stands within its grounds. ✅Here, you can see the Pingquan mountains lush with greenery, small bridges over flowing water, and combinations of pavilions and corridors, scenes that are no less beautiful than those in the south of the Yangtze River. ✅The Ten Directions Buddha Pagoda, also known as the Yanshou Temple Pagoda, is named for the relics of the Emperor's monks placed inside. It is one of the more intact Ming Dynasty dense-eave style brick pagodas in the Beijing area. The pagoda faces south from the north, is about 31 meters high, and is an octagonal nine-tiered dense-eave style brick pagoda. It was declared a 'city protected' site in 1990. ✅The park is planted with more than 200 varieties of trees, shrubs, and flowers, totaling about 220,000 plants. Recently, the park's mountain peach blossoms have reached their peak bloom, with clusters of pink flowers complementing the ancient pagoda and other ancient buildings. Magnolia and winter jasmine buds are about to bloom, attracting visitors to come and take pictures and create memories. The spring breeze is refreshing, and all things are reviving. It's time to add some spring colors to your outing! If you have time, it's recommended to take a walk here!
