Visiting Beijing in mid May is a best period to enjoy the vibrant floral that blooms everywhere around the city.

My mum and aunty were extremely excited everytime they see the huge roses along the streets. So I decided to bring them to Ritan Park (日坛), which means Temple of the Sun in Chinese. This is where the emperors of the Ming and Qing Dynasty performed sacrifices to the sun deity.

The park was said to be constructed in 1530 during the Ming Dynasty. The Central feature of the park is the Altar of the Sun. The altar is surrounded by pine trees and traditional Chinese architecture, enhancing it's historical ambience.

The park is about 20 hectares, and is meticulously landscaped with variety of flora, including ancient pine trees, ornamental flowers and seasonal blooms. Strolling around you will walk through the gardens, leading to tranquil ponds, rockeries and pavilions. Every part in the park especially the main pond is a photographic.

Ritan Park attracts both locals and tourists seeking for leisure and recreation. You'll find groups practising tai chi, dancing, singing, or exercising, reflecting the park's role as a community hub. And there is also a huge children playground! This is really interesting. 

While my mum and aunty immersed themselves into the garden of huge roses, I walk around to explore more about the park. There is also a Fishing Area, Rock Climbing activities and Open-Air Tea Houses. The park is very well maintained. 

The locals says that Ritan Park often hosts cultural events and festivals, particularly during the Chinese New Year and other traditional holidays. Many performances are organised such as lantarn displays, and various cultural activities that offer a deeper understanding of Chinese traditions and community spirit. 

Ritan Park is located at Ritan North Road of Chaoyang District Beijing. It opens everyday from as early as 6am-9pm. There is no admission fee to enter the park. Getting there is not difficult as there are several bus routes servicing the area and also subway station nearby. 

Ritan Park is definitely worth the visit if you are in Beijing. It is a park blend of history, culture and natural beauty, providing a peaceful retreat and a glimpse into Beijing imperial past.

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

The Lama Temple is so colourful 💙🩷🧡💚

I was lucky enough to visit it during the beginning of spring. So on top of the vivid colours of the temples there were also many trees blooming, some cherries, peaches and other pink or white flowers. It gives an additional layer of pretty to the place. 

Additionally, just crossing the road there are a few alleyways with the hipster vibe. It’s impossible to say which shop is the most charming one. There are even some with rooftops. Super recommended to spend sometime walking around. I personally liked the Metal Hands Cafe. The pistachio coffee was the best there ☕️😋

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.

The Magic of Spring ✨🌸

#cherryblossom2024

The Summer Imperial Palace in Beijing is truly a pearl of Chinese architecture and history. Built in 1750, it amazes with its grandeur and scale.

The palace combines elements of Chinese and Western styles, creating a unique appearance. The Marble Boat, the Long Corridor, and the pavilions by Kunming Lake are just a small part of its beauty.

Picturesque gardens and landscapes. The gardens, lakes, and artificial hills scattered throughout the palace grounds create a serene atmosphere of unity with nature.

Every corner of the palace is a true gem for photographers and Instagram lovers. Bright colors, elegant shapes, and historical ambiance guarantee stunning shots.

For travelers visiting the palace, here are some tips:

- Wear comfortable shoes, as you will have to walk a lot around the vast territory.
- Come early in the morning to avoid large crowds and heat, and also bring water and snacks.
- Allow at least half a day to leisurely explore the main attractions.
- Be sure to see the Long Gallery, the Marble Boat, and stroll through the beautiful imperial gardens.

Visiting the Summer Palace is not just a tour but an immersion into the atmosphere of imperial grandeur and beauty. Don't miss the opportunity to touch the history and culture of the Celestial Empire!

Mutianyu (慕田峪长城) is one of the best-preserved and most picturesque sections of the Great Wall of China. It is located in the mountains 70 km northeast of Beijing. I liked this section of the wall much more than Badaling (八达岭).

You can get here with a tour group or on your own. If you're going independently, you need to get to the Dongzhimen Public Transport Hub (东直门交通枢纽), take bus 916块, get off at the final stop Huairou Beidajie (怀柔北大街), cross the road, take bus H23, get off at Mutianyu Huandao (慕田峪环岛). Then walk back a little and you'll see the entrance to the ticket offices.

Before the entrance to the wall, there is a parking lot, souvenir shops, and cafes. You can buy a ticket for the cable car and ride it to the 14th tower, then walk in either direction. I also recommend buying a ticket for the toboggan ride down from the Great Wall. It costs 100 yuan.

The wall itself runs along the mountain ridges, rising to a height of 1,000 meters above sea level. The views are simply stunning - endless crenellated walls wind along the mountain ridges, disappearing into the distance. It's especially beautiful here on a clear day.

Walking along the wall is quite a challenge due to the numerous steps and steep climbs. But the effort is worth it - the sight of the ancient stone structures, shrouded in legends and history, is mesmerizing.

Overall, Mutianyu left an indelible impression on me. It is one of the must-see attractions when visiting Beijing and China. I recommend setting aside at least half a day to leisurely stroll along the wall and enjoy the views.

Yuyuantan's cherry blossoms are like spring's alarm clock in Beijing. 🌸 Despite this year's cancellation of the Cherry Blossom Festival, the flowers still bloom and fall as they do every year, offering a timeless beauty that can be enjoyed without haste.

Although we can't be there to hear the gentle fall of cherry blossom petals, the sight of these clouds of flowers is simply breathtaking. 🌸 Against the backdrop of the clear blue sky, spring feels even more enchanting. This season brings a sense of clarity and joy, revealing the beauty of Beijing's spring in a way I've never noticed before.

Each cherry blossom tree in Yuyuantan is a marvel to behold, offering a scene that changes with every glance. 🌸 I find myself reminiscing about the lively atmosphere of the festival, with its "long guns and short guns" (likely referring to the different types of cherry blossom trees) adding to the festive ambiance.

The Spring season has arrived at the Summer Palace, painting a picturesque scene. The lake's water reflects the clear blue sky, while the gentle breeze creates rhythmic ripples on the surface. Towering poplar trees and delicate weeping willows adorn the landscape, their budding leaves adding a touch of freshness to the surroundings. 🌿💧

As you stroll along the 17-Arch Bridge, the aroma of peach blossoms fills the air, blending harmoniously with the scenic beauty. The bridge itself, adorned with delicate flowers, stands as a testament to timeless elegance. Across the tranquil lake, the Buddha Incense Pavilion atop Longevity Hill commands attention with its ornate architecture and glistening golden walls, creating a mesmerizing sight against the backdrop of nature. 🌼🏰
