A must-visit in autumn! Fragrant Hills Park holds Beijing's most captivating four-season poetry.
If you were to ask which Beijing park embodies the beauty of each season to its fullest, the answer would undoubtedly be Fragrant Hills Park. Nestled in the foothills of the Western Hills, this classical garden not only carries a thousand years of history, but also offers a visual feast, making it a must-see destination for countless visitors.
Spring in Fragrant Hills is a gentle prelude. Wild peaches and apricots bloom along the mountain path, their pink and white petals drifting in the wind, creating a romantic "flower path." Within the park, the century-old cypresses sprout new green leaves, creating a striking contrast with the red walls and yellow tiles of the temple. A stroll through the garden is a delight.
I took a stroll through Fragrant Hill today. Autumn was in full swing, and the forests were ablaze with color. 🍁Walking along the winding mountain path, it felt like stepping into a flowing oil painting. The rustling of fallen leaves with every step lightened my mood. From the vantage point, I could see the entire city of Beijing. In that moment, all my worries drifted away. 🍂 Fragrant Hill, you're such a relaxing place! I'll definitely be back! 🌞

Shi Tiesheng Ditan Temple is a famous Beijing scenic spot. It is clean and has a good environment. It is generally well received. It is quite recommended and affordable. It is recommended for people from all over the world to visit, especially for travel enthusiasts and those with children.
I went to the altar of the altar of the earth, and the altar of the heavens was square. Although it is not as big as the altar of heaven, the altar is shocking enough, and the tickets are much cheaper. And there are really not many people in the altar, and it is very suitable for sunbathing. It is a great thing in life to move a chair to the temple park in the afternoon! ! !

Autumn Summer Palace, a century-old gui Zhengyi Fanghua. Go to the Paiyun Palace and Leshou Hall, finely chopped gold foils are covered with branches, sweet fragrance wrapped in autumn wind overflowing, mixed with water vapor in Kunming Lake, making people feel comfortable. Stop under the flowers, watch the light and shadows spill through the gap, listen to the light of the cruise ship rowing, the nose is cinnamon fragrance, the bottom of the eyes is the red wall yellow tile and the blue wave. No need to deliberately find the scenery, only this wisp of fragrance, let the autumn garden more gentle poetry.
Teacher Wu Ping was very knowledgeable and kept explaining throughout the tour. She was very considerate of the elderly and always took the tourists into consideration. She was very attentive. At the end, she even gave us a fun little gift - building blocks. I didn't feel too tired after following the whole tour, and I learned a lot. It was really eye-opening. A highly recommended tour guide.

I decided to visit Tanzhe Temple on a whim and bought tickets on Ctrip. The QR code was a convenient way to enter the temple. The temple is visible from the front, and Beijing City is nearby. There are many ancient trees and the incense is very popular. There's also a coffee shop there, which is delicious and very comfortable.
I've long heard that Tanzhe Temple came before Beijing, but as a Beijinger, this was my first time here. Transportation is very convenient, with direct access via the subway and then the bus. Tickets are 50 yuan and can be purchased online or at the venue. The scenery inside is truly delightful, nestled against the backdrop of mountains and water, and the air is fresh. Gazing at the ancient trees, touching the stone fish, and smelling the incense, my restless heart is easily calmed.

We bought a direct bus, but it ended up being included with the bus to Mutianyu Great Wall. The trip did depart from Shaoyaoju at 9:30 AM, but the pickup from Hongluo Temple wasn't until 4 PM. And to make money, we had to take everyone to the Bird's Nest for a paid tour afterward. Those who didn't visit were dismissed in a place not close to the subway or buses. So, the long tour involved a lot of climbing up and down the mountain. We went up along Guanyin Road and down another way. It was quite steep, so be careful. Overall, the scenery was beautiful and quite interesting.
The tour guide was very attentive and helped confirm the itinerary regardless of the time. He was humorous and not only explained the attractions along the way, but also explained the strategy and transportation up and down the mountain in detail. It was worry-free and labor-saving to follow the tour guide. I highly recommend it.

Located in Haidian, a suburb west of Beijing, the Old Summer Palace Ruins Park is a 5A-level scenic spot and a patriotic education center built on the remains of the Old Summer Palace.
Construction began in 1707 and comprised the Old Summer Palace, the Changchun Garden, and the Qichun Garden. Over 150 years, it was constructed by six generations of emperors and is considered the "Garden of Gardens." In 1860, the British and French forces looted and burned the Old Summer Palace. In 1900, the Eight-Nation Alliance again vandalized it, reducing it to ruins. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the government implemented protective measures for the ruins, and the Old Summer Palace Ruins Park opened to the public in 1988. It bears witness to the humiliating history of the Chinese nation, serving as a warning to the Chinese people to remember the lesson that "backwardness leads to beatings" and strive for progress.
Enjoy lotus blossoms in summer, play in the snow in winter, and delight in the chrysanthemums in autumn. The Western-style buildings linger with resentment, wondering when a century of hatred will be resolved.
The Old Summer Palace is a large garden in China's Qing Dynasty. It consists of three gardens: Old Summer Palace, Changchun Garden, and Yichun Garden. It has both the aesthetic realm of Chinese gardens and the artistic style of Western gardens. It is also a 5A-level tourist attraction.

Who said that Pofengling is only worth coming in autumn? Summer's cloud stone house is a hidden fairyland! 💫 You must check in at Pofeng Cafe hidden in the treasure place halfway up the mountain. Panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows + tent area. Watermelon ice American is a summer life-sustaining artifact. The C position by the window should arrive early, and the light is gentle beyond the film. Yunshang Shiwu B&B Reality version of the Wizard of Oz, small bridges and flowing water + fog forest, the baby can play in the water to fish, but also meet Tilian, wear a white skirt, the fairy is directly full. Red back grocery store retro feeling full score, the little tiger puppet is cute to foul, the old objects are like movie screenshots. ⚠️ Notes 1. Anti-mosquito liquid + sunshade hat is necessary, there are really many bugs 2. Wear anti-slip shoes, the ground in Wonderland area is slippery 3. Bring enough snacks and water, the mountain is small and expensive 4. It is recommended to take the cable car directly under the age of 6 (80 yuan/person)
I have only seen Pofengling in autumn. Pofengling in autumn is famous for its red leaves, especially the red leaves of cotinus coggygria and torch, which form a sharp contrast with the green mountains and blue sky in the distance, forming a beautiful picture.
The best viewing period for red leaves: October 1 to November 20 every year.
History and Culture: At the foot of the mountain are the villas of Li Lianying, the great eunuch of the feudal dynasty, and Cao Kun, the warlord, where tourists can learn some history and culture.

Visiting The Great Wall is once in a life experience. Being there I couldn’t get over how it was amazingly built in such harsh terrain.
Mutianyu Great Wall is really nice to visit. We took the ropeway, cable car and slide, and walked through the west and east lines in 5 hours! The scenery is beautiful. I would like to praise the tour guide Shanshan, who is very responsible (half of our group is foreign, and the tour guide spoke Chinese and English and did not get tired of explaining it clearly). She is very serious and responsible, a thumbs up

The guide was very informative, also this is not a walking wall , it is a climbing wall.
Convenient. Just present your passport or ID document, you will get your ticket. The audio is in the trip app. It's very useful. But it takes time to loading the audio. Excellent view of the Great Wall. It is recommended to use cable car if you find hiking challenging. Some part of the slope is extremely steep.
