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! ! !

Hongye Valley Scenic Area is located in Liuyan Town, the southern mountainous area of Jinan City. The traffic is relatively convenient. When you arrive at the roadside, you have to take a few kilometers to a large hillside. The most suitable season for Hongye Valley is autumn. It is probably suitable for tourism in three months. It is recommended to play for one day. In the evening, you can return to Jinan city to stay and eat. The Hongye Valley has beautiful scenery, fresh air in the mountains, and a natural oxygen bar. It is very suitable for travel and vacation camping.
Jinan Red Leaf Valley is a national 4A-level scenic spot located in the southern mountainous area and is famous for its beautiful scenery in all seasons. In autumn, the mountains are all red, and the sea of cotinus is dyed with layers of forests, which can be called a poetic portrayal of "frost leaves are redder than February flowers". In spring, the tulip sea spreads over the European-style valley, and millions of Dutch tulips and windmill sculptures complement each other, just like Monet's dream garden. In summer, the valley is lush and green, with waterfalls and springs, and the negative oxygen ion content is as high as 300 times that of the urban area, making it a summer resort; in winter, the snow covers the green pines and the fragrance of winter plums floats, creating a unique artistic conception. In the scenic area, the Autumn Lake is as blue as a mirror, and the Wanye Tower is a high-altitude glass drifting, rainbow slide and other interesting projects. The transportation is convenient, and it can be reached by car or bus, which is suitable for family travel, photography and leisure.

Fortunately, we chose the manual tour, which greatly enhanced the viewing experience. I must praise the tour guide Sun. He spoke fluently, had a good rhythm, and had a wide range of knowledge. He was very knowledgeable and well-informed. The whole trip was very smooth and comfortable. I will definitely ask him to come again next time. Of course, if the logo flag can be replaced, for example, to make it more conspicuous, it will be even more perfect.
A special thank you to our tour guide, Ms. Feng, for her professionalism and enthusiasm! Ms. Feng is incredibly knowledgeable and explains the historical background and cultural details of each attraction vividly and thoroughly, turning even boring numbers into engaging stories. At the Great Wall, she meticulously reminded us of safety precautions; at the Summer Palace, she was incredibly helpful.

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.
The whole environment is quite quiet, and the temple is built on the mountain. However, it is far from the city and the transportation around is not very convenient. Although many people online recommend it, I personally don’t think it is necessary to travel so far to visit it.

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.

Chocolate Experience Hall: Here, visitors can pour melted chocolate into a variety of adorable molds, such as heart shapes, and wait for the chocolate to solidify with anticipation. Holding their handmade chocolate brings a sweet and fulfilling sense of accomplishment, and the chocolate's deliciousness is enhanced by the setting in which it was crafted.
Sachet-Making Experience Hall: A variety of spices, such as lavender, rose, and rosemary, exude elegant aromas. Visitors can choose their favorite spices, crush them in a stone mortar, and watch them transform into a fine powder. The powder is then placed into exquisite sachets for easy crafting!
I drove my kids here today. It's about an hour's drive from downtown to Rushan. Once we arrived, we exchanged our tickets and went inside directly with the staff. Once inside, we made sachets with the kids, and she made chocolates for them. It was fun, and the scenery was beautiful. I highly recommend it! Everyone should come and check it out. If you don't want to hike, you can take a tour bus directly to the Art Town, where there are many craft workshops for kids to try. It's a great place to spend the whole day.

Shimenfang has a long history and profound cultural heritage. As early as the Shang Dynasty, people admired this place. The Panggong Temple in the scenic area has a history of more than 3,000 years. It was built to commemorate the tomb of Pang Boling, the king of the Shang Dynasty. There are more than 70 cliff statues from the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, which are precious historical relics and provide valuable information for the study of ancient Chinese history and the social background of the Tang Dynasty.
🎢Entertainment projects:
In addition to beautiful scenery and history, Shimenfang also has many fun entertainment projects!
The roller coaster lets you feel the thrill of riding the wind and receive your own purple passion and romance;
The 3,000-square-meter go-kart track has two large-turnaround cool tracks, allowing you to enjoy speed and passion;
The colorful slide with a total length of more than 120 meters allows you to slide down from a high altitude and enjoy the pleasure brought by the gravity drop;
There is also a high-altitude glass drift with a total length of about 3,333 meters, with a 360-degree transparent corner. Adults and children can play, and while feeling the wind and lightning, they can also enjoy the beautiful scenery of the mountains.
There are too many things I want to say. First, the cultural landscape, there are cliff carvings, stone statues, and the eight major scenes of Linqu "Pianyi Shimen Evening Glow Remnant", which I will not mention due to space limitations. There are many celebrity stone carvings. Second, the natural landscape, lush vegetation, gurgling streams, especially many small trees on the cliffs, twisted and circling, very interesting. The hiking trails are newly renovated and convenient for walking. The most important thing is the natural oxygen bar.
