🍂 A strong wind over the weekend blew away most of the ginkgo leaves in the city. Just when I thought winter was coming, I turned a corner and was greeted by the full embrace of autumn. 🍂 Passing by Chegongzhuang Street, I was deeply attracted by the autumn colors on the overpass. The ginkgo trees from Chegongzhuang to Chegongzhuang West have all turned yellow, contrasting with the green trees on the side road to form a unique half-summer, half-autumn landscape. The ginkgo trees here are very tall and shaped like torches. Standing on the overpass, you are surrounded by golden splendor on both sides. You can even see the Western Hills in the distance, a unique autumn romance. 🍂 The dappled shadows of the trees are sprinkled with the afterglow of the setting sun. At that moment, time seems to stand still. The leaves turn yellow, and everything is as usual. The sunset and evening breeze sing, and passersby stop to chase the tail of autumn. Beauty is always so inadvertent, like the golden yellow scattered by the autumn wind, and there is always an answer on the road. 📍 Chegongzhuang Subway Station > Subway: Overpass between Exit H and Exit E of Chegongzhuang Station on Line 6/2 > Driving: Navigate to Chegongzhuang Subway Station, parking is available on the roadside

📸 Check out autumn in Beijing's hutongs 🍂 💫 In this cool autumn season, I decided to take a walk in Beijing's hutongs! The sun was warm, and I walked slowly along the old alleys. 😌 🏠 The old houses in the hutongs exude a unique charm, and I even saw a little cat basking in the sun on the roof. 😻 There are many cats playing in the hutongs, and they are so cute! 🐱 🌤️ The sky was a bright blue, and flocks of pigeons flew by from time to time, adding a touch of vibrancy to the scene! 🕊️ This time, I chose Beiqianchuan Hutong and Zhanzi Hutong as the background for my photos, as they both have a strong historical atmosphere. 📸 🍁 The autumn leaves quietly fell in the hutongs, adding a touch of poetry and warmth to the ancient streets. I walked slowly, stopping from time to time to pick up a fallen leaf and feel the charm of autumn. 🍂 📷 Equipment: Sony a7R3 + 28-200 lens 🌇 Recommended shooting time: After 3 pm ✨ In short, if you come to Beijing, you must visit the hutongs, especially in this comfortable and warm autumn!

Beijing is truly a treasure trove! Having lived here for over 20 years, this is the first time I've discovered such a stunning Catholic church. 💒 Don't miss this place during your short holiday in Beijing. This is the Xishiku Church ⛪️, which has a history of over 100 years and is the largest Catholic church in Beijing. It has been around for over 300 years and still retains the calligraphy of Emperor Kangxi. The main building is a three-story Gothic structure with 11 spires at the top, and the building's floor plan is cross-shaped. The two Chinese-style pavilions outside the church give it a unique blend of Eastern and Western aesthetics. The church's interior is resplendent, with a golden dome supported by 300 giant columns and 80 stained glass windows depicting the history of Catholicism in China. The church has a strong Oriental character, and the sunlight streaming through the stained glass windows in the afternoon is incredibly sacred. Many couples choose to hold their weddings here. 💒 On the day we visited, we saw three couples entering the church one after another. The church offers different beautiful views at different times of the year. 🌸 In spring, there are crabapple blossoms, and in winter, ❄️ the snow-covered pine trees in front of the church add to its mystery. ⚠️Note: 📍 No. 33, Xishiku Street, Xicheng District 👉🏼 About reservations: No reservation is required, and you can enter the church!

The surrounding environment is excellent. It's close to the Temple of Heaven, just a 15-minute walk away. You can easily feel the charm of the ancient capital and visit all the popular spots. Longtan Park is also nearby, which is worth a visit. The hotel lobby is spacious and bright. The service is attentive, and the staff are enthusiastic and warm, making you feel at home.

| Highly recommend Mutianyu Great Wall! [Introduction]: ❄️ Mutianyu Great Wall is a peaceful and ancient place. 🔥 Mutianyu Great Wall is more famous than Badaling Great Wall internationally. Many foreign friends choose Mutianyu Great Wall when they visit Beijing. - 🙋 If you want to visit Mutianyu Great Wall, we recommend booking a private car. 1️⃣ Mutianyu Great Wall is about 1.5 hours' drive from downtown Beijing. It's exhausting to take a bus for such a long journey. 2️⃣ Especially for family trips, a private car is more flexible and convenient for taking care of the elderly and children. ⛺ [Travel tips]: [Travel routes] A: West Route (Towers 14-20): Take the cable car to Tower 14 (Stele of "He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true man") ➡️ Walk west to Tower 15 (filming location of "If You Are the One") ➡️ Tower 17 (the words "Loyal to MZX" are written on the mountain to the west) ➡️ Tower 18 (Boundary Stele) ➡️ Towers 19 & 20 (Hero Slope is in the middle) ➡️ Tower 20 (the highest peak, "Hero Platform") ➡️ Return the same way (take the cable car down) 👉 This is the most classic route of Mutianyu Great Wall, with all the classic check-in points. It is also the most exhausting route, suitable for those with plenty of time and energy. B: East Route (Towers 6-1): Take the cable car to Tower 6 ➡️ Walk east to Tower 4 (Zhengguan Platform) ➡️ Tower 1 (Dajiao Tower) ➡️ Return the same way (take the slide down) 👉 We took this route, which is suitable for family trips and visitors with other plans in the afternoon. It is not very exhausting, and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Great Wall. The most important thing is that you can take the slide down the mountain on this route, which is very exciting. C: Middle Route (Towers 14-6): This route is relatively flat, with no special check-in points. You can take the cable car or slide down, or if you have enough time, you can combine the west and east routes for a grand slam. 🛬 [Itinerary]: 🟢 Book in advance so the driver can arrange a car for you. 🟢 Confirm the time with the driver before departure so the driver can arrive early. 🟢 If you have special needs, communicate with the driver in advance to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings during the trip. Mutianyu Great Wall

It is said to be an old internet-famous place, because the cave architecture aesthetics became popular for a while. I didn't expect there to be so few people when I went there this time. If you don't want to squeeze in with the crowd, hurry up! You can also go to the box across the street and spend a whole day shopping and eating. ✅ Few people ✅ Great photos ✅ Free, no reservation required ✅ Visually stunning ✅ Not only exhibitions, but also cultural and creative products, exhibitions, books, and food ✅ City center, convenient transportation, the box is next to it, you can visit together It is essentially a furniture art space, with exhibitions, bars and restaurants, book bars, and cultural and creative arts. There are four floors in total, three above ground and one underground. You can take great photos on every floor! The most amazing thing is the design of the entire space, which is definitely the most unique and meaningful I have ever seen. The overall design is based on the Silk Road culturalism, that is, cave civilization. From the white Yadan landform, Loulan Ancient City, Jiaohe Ancient City, Kizil Thousand Buddha Caves to the cave dwellings on the Loess Plateau, they have all become design inspirations and are integrated into the architecture. The most amazing thing is the design of the irregular skylight on the roof, and the spiral staircase printed with the Dunhuang flying murals, which is very amazing. The style of the northwest is elegantly captured! ✅ Best shooting locations: mural spiral staircase, skylight on the first floor, portrait and skylight on the third floor ⚠️ Sunny days, it is best to go when the sky is blue and the sun is shining, otherwise you will feel like me, taking photos of the sky that are all white and can only be edited later 📍 Location: Markor Caves Museum, No. 99 Chaoyangmenwai Street 🕐 Opening hours: 10:00–21:00 🎫 Tickets: Free!

||| Hi, Universal, I'm back! This is my second visit to Universal Studios, and it still feels amazing. It's such a great place for taking photos! Every scene looks like it has its own filter, and every shot turns out great. But I have to remind everyone, if you're visiting Universal Studios in November, pay attention to the weather. The temperature difference between day and night is huge, and it can get really chilly. So, make sure to bring a thick coat 🧥, or else you'll feel the cold wind while walking around the park at night. I had a great time playing and taking photos in the park, trying out different poses, and capturing happy moments in every picture. Universal Studios has this magical power that no matter how many times you visit, you'll always have a great time. If you're planning to visit Universal Studios around this time, don't forget to check out my tips. I'm sure you'll have a fantastic time here too.

East Suburb Forest is a hidden gem There are few people here 🍁 It's quiet and not noisy, and there are many red leaves Including red maple, ginkgo, birch, cotinus coggygria, etc. There is also a large wetland in the South Park 🌲 Very suitable for outdoor leisure and entertainment in autumn Parking is also very convenient, and parking spaces are not tight But because of the location in the east 🚗 Only suitable for friends in Chaoyang District and Tongzhou District It's a bit far from other places There is no subway nearby, only suitable for self-driving! 🚇 - 🧭 Locate "East Suburb Forest Park North China Arboretum" 🎫 No tickets, free parking ⌚️ Recommended before 3 pm, the sun is good - The maple trees in the North Park of East Suburb Forest are relatively lush The birch forest in the South Park is relatively tall 🌿 There is also a wetland and reed marsh, which is very photogenic Autumn in Beijing is very short 🍂 If you want to go for an autumn walk, you have to do it early, or the leaves will fall off 📍

I've always wanted to stay in a courtyard in a hutong, and I finally got to! I saw a lot of people recommending this homestay, so I booked it right away. The Chinese-style decor is stunning, and it's clean and tidy. There's also a courtyard and terrace. The night view is super healing, and it's so quiet you can meditate. 😭😭😭😭 You can walk to Nanluoguxiang, and it's super convenient to visit famous Beijing attractions. The Drum Tower, Wangfujing, and Shichahai are all within walking distance. There's also authentic zhajiangmian and popular Qingyu yogurt nearby, and they taste great. The public terrace in the homestay restaurant is a great place to take photos. 😄😄😄😄 The terrace on the third floor has a panoramic view of Nanluoguxiang, and the view is amazing. 👍👍👍👍

💖Transportation: ❌Avoid: Beijing Tourist Distribution Center's round-trip bus. Although it costs CNY 80 for a round trip, the parking spot is often far from the attraction. ✅Recommended: Deshengmen 877 bus, which goes directly to Badaling Great Wall. CNY 6 with a card, CNY 12 in cash (children under 1.3m are free, and you can use Alipay to pay for the bus). Operating hours: Deshengmen to Badaling Great Wall 06:00–12:00, Badaling Great Wall to Deshengmen 10:30–17:00 (from Deshengmen, exit from Jishuitan Subway Station Exit B2, and walk to Deshengmen Arrow Tower to take the bus). 💖Cable car: ❌Avoid: Round-trip cable car tickets. The queue is super long, like the queue for popular rides at Disney and Universal, and there is no waiting time reminder at the entrance. If you take a 2-minute cable car from the back mountain to the North Sixth Floor and want to return to the front mountain after climbing to the North Twelfth Floor, you will have to climb back to the North Sixth Floor to take the return cable car, which is tiring and requires queuing for one or two hours. Many people choose a one-way ticket (buy a cable car or slide down the mountain when tired) instead. 💖When to visit: ❌Avoid Monday: All major attractions in Beijing are closed on Monday, so many people will arrange to visit Tiananmen and the Great Wall, making it very crowded. 💖ID: ✅Bring: ID cards for all travelers, including adults who buy tickets (can enter in the morning or afternoon) and minors, seniors, etc. who are free. 💖Summer heat and rain preparation: ✅Heat: You can fill a thermos with ice cubes and add your favorite drink. ✅Rain: If rain is forecast, prepare disposable raincoats in advance, as they are expensive at the attraction.
