Originally established as a central park in 1914, it was later renamed Zhongshan Park after parking Sun Yat-sen's coffin. Covering 230,000 square meters, it stands as a classical temple garden, renowned both domestically and internationally for its historical relics from the Liao, Jin, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties, as well as its ancient and renowned trees.

A definite highlight for anyone exploring Beijing's wonders. #TempleOfHeaven #Beijing #CulturalHeritage #Serenity 🇨🇳

Visual Beijing
Beijing is a city with a rich cultural heritage. The embodiment of cultural heritage is not only carried by the artificial landscape, but also carried by its natural landscape, such as the Summer Palace, the Old Summer Palace (Yuanmingyuan), the Temple of Heaven, Xiangshan Park, Xishan Park, etc. These landmarks and attractions are the full embodiment of "the unity of nature", that is, nature's broad heart accepts the idea of the moderation of the nation, or small human beings revere the greatness of nature.
Although Beijing is only part of a larger culture, it is worth it to start or stop in Beijing on your journey!#beijing
Floral Paradise in Beijing 🌸🌿
#cherryblossom2024
The National Botanical Garden in Beijing, also known as the North Garden, boasts a stunning collection of over a hundred species and thousands of plants, including varieties like the Jade Butterfly, Cinnabar, Gold Dust, Weeping, and Longyou plums. 🌸 The Plum Garden, in particular, is a highlight, with its winding mountain paths and tranquil boardwalks. From late March to early April, the plum blossoms are in full bloom, creating a picturesque scene where winding streams converge into lakes, reflecting the blooming plum blossoms. The gentle shadows and clear waters here offer a serene retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life.
Among the attractions are the 'Pinhong' and 'Pinxia' peach varieties, developed independently by the National Botanical Garden, which will be in full bloom in early April. These peach varieties are beloved by visitors for their dense and vibrant flowers, adding a splash of color along the Southeast Gate to the Science Pavilion.
The tall and majestic White Flower Mountain Magnolias and the delicate pink Liao Mei Mountain Apricots form a peach blossom corridor, where every step offers a new breathtaking view, showcasing the beauty of spring.
The magnolias in the Magnolia Garden are tall and elegant, with abundant flowers 🌸 that stand gracefully on the branches. From late March to early April, these magnolias, especially the Erqiao Magnolia and the Color-Changing Dragon Magnolia, add to the serene and ancient atmosphere of the garden.
On the north bank of the South Lake, the Yaezakura cherry 🍒 blossoms are in full bloom in early April, complemented by the vibrant red plums and green willows. Against the backdrop of the rolling green hills, this scene creates a beautiful springtime painting. #SpringFlowers #Parks #Beijing #Spring

Fairy tale look alike summer palace🏛️🌸
#cherryblossom2024
The Summer Palace in full bloom with peach blossoms is the little Jiangnan of Beijing people! The Summer Palace, a classical Chinese garden 🪴 and one of the famous scenic spots and historical sites in Beijing, was originally the palace and garden of emperors in the Qing Dynasty. It has over 3000 palace garden buildings in various forms.
I really like this section of the West Embankment. The green willows and red flowers 🌺 on the shore are so beautiful that it's intoxicating. The north can also be beautiful and tender.
📸Personally, I think this is the most beautiful section of the Summer Palace mid April, with a brief spring scenery.
🚗Transportation Guide:
The West Gate Station of the Summer Palace is the quickest way to enter from the West Gate to see the West Embankment. The Summer Palace is particularly large, and once you walk through the wrong door, it takes half a day to pass.
📍Location: Haidian District, Beijing.

Beijing | Checking in at the famous Yi Ta Hu Tu | Peking University.
Boya Tower, Weiming Lake, and Peking University Library
These three famous sights of Peking University are known as Yi Ta Hu Tu.
I had the fortune to visit Peking University in January.
But Peking University is really too big~~
You can't finish visiting in just an afternoon.
At that time, the weather was also super cold.
I saw the frozen Weiming Lake, which was full of people skating.
It looked so fun.
Every corner of the Peking University campus has its own unique charm.
Everywhere you look, there's a story and history to it.
I'm so envious of the students who get to study here~
I want to go to Hong Kong for fun~ I want to visit the University of Hong Kong~ Check out the highest institution of learning in Hong Kong~

Romance at Ritz-Carlton Beijing
We wanted to celebrate our 3-year anniversary with a staycation in a 5-star hotel. We booked a Club access room, which came with so many free amenities! With Club Lounge access, we got lunch, hors d’oeuvres, afternoon tea, drinks, breakfast… and the food was fantastic!
The hotel is located right next to SKP, so we were able to get a little shopping done too. After we were shopped out, we returned to our room at the Ritz to a lovely bottle of bubbles on ice and more sweet treats! It was a wonderful way to celebrate! #ritzcarlton #Beijing #romance #anniversary

Since it is quite a big area (park and temple), so you can spend your time there with your friends, family and lover by walking through different points in the park.

This place is worth a visit to enjoy the sites, food and take some pictures. Definitely try the Tanghulu (sugarcoated fruits), I recommend anyone with strawberries, oranges and grapes; they are everywhere. Also try the lamb skewers. I am a picky eater so didn’t try a lot of food but if you’re not then absolutely go for it. Additionally, if you’re looking to grab a few souvenirs, there are plenty shops to choose from. Have fun 🤩 #trip #beijing #Qianmenstreet #solo #travel
Beijing Universal
Beijing Universal resort is located in Beijing, China. You can go there by taxi or take metro. I recommend you to buy universal express if you donot want to wait for a long queue. However, there are some rides that these are closed (it depends on the season that you go for the universal Beijing ). There are many zones, so it is easy for you if you see from the universal app. Hence, you can plan ahead that which zone that you would like to go first. The highlight of this universal Beijing resort is Gang Fu panda zone because it is all about Chinese culture and other universal studios donot have this zone. #beijing #beijinguniversalstudio #China

🎡🧙🏻♂️Universal Studios🧙🏻♂️🎡
Universal Studios in beijing oozes a magical atmosphere, and features all the favourites like Harry Potter, The Minions, and Charlie's Chocolate Factory.
Delicious food and drinks are on offer and are themed from the movies. Slurping on a 'butterbeer' in Harry Potter's Hogsmeade was cool.
There are a range of rides from tame merry-go-rounds, to more extreme roller coasters. Just strolling around the different 'worlds' offers interesting sights. Great for families.

☃️⛩️ Visit The Summer Palace ⛩️☃️
Arriving at the Summer Palace, we were taken back by the beauty of the surroundings. With ice covered lakes and snow capped pine trees, the area was so beautiful!
The palace itself charges a very small fee for entry (￥20) and is very picturesque inside too. The temple roofs glistening snow was very nice.
The feeling around the place was one of calm and peace. It became clear why this place was chosen and became such an important historical palace. #historicallandmarks #china #trip #summerpalace #beijing #asiatrip #temple

Moonlit Shichahai 🌙 ✨
#freehotelstay
🏨Strolled Shichahai at night, known for its charm.
Just minutes from my embassy-side hotel in Beijing.
🌃 The serene night walk around Shichahai, with its ancient hutongs and shimmering lakes is a tranquil prelude to embassy duties.
🎨 Spotted a local artist painting for 10 RMB (20 RMB with packaging).
Explored quiet alleys with bars and cafes, surprisingly peaceful.
🚊 Found a subway near the end.

2023: a year to remember! What’s netx? 🔜✈️
2023 was a beautiful year! I had the opportunity to visit many new places.
In January I went to Jordan. While I was there, I had the opportunity to visit Petra, one of the seven wonders of the modern world. January being a non-high season period, there were few people and it was beautiful. Petra is definitely a magical place to see at least once in a lifetime.
In April instead I had the opportunity to go to Beijing. Here too I saw another wonder of the modern world, The Great Wall of China. But the thing that left me most shocked was the Terracotta army which is located in the city of Xi'An.
I hope to have other opportunities to travel in 2024 as I had in 2023. The destinations I would like to visit this year are New Zealand and French Polynesia…so Oceania is my next goal 🔜✈️

Universal Studios Beijing delivers!
Earlier this year I went to Universal Studios in Singapore and had a great experience so I knew I had to check out the newer Universal Studios in Beijing. What an incredible place! The whole park is huge with around 30 different rides and experiences to do. It wasn’t too busy when I was there on a Friday so I managed to see and do almost everything. The Harry potter land was a stand out for me. Such a great time, I highly recommend it to anyone!#Beijing #universal
Amazing Ginkgo trees in Autumn 🍂
#fallingseason
Stone carving art museum
This museum was just opened to the public a few years ago. Located just by the beautiful Changhe river. It is a beautiful park to walk around in at any season however my favorite is autumn.
The Wutasi pagodas inside was built in 1473, and there is two ginkgo trees at the south of the pagodas, they are said to be 500 years. They are truly amazing during the autumn.
We came just at the time when the leaves were showing themselves at their best colors.
The entrance is really close to the north entrance of Beijing Zoo. We biked around the area for a bit and enjoyed the river view.
💰 20 rmb to enter
📍wutasi village 25. Haidian district
