Life advice: In March in Beijing, you must visit the Summer Palace at least once

March in Beijing is about to welcome the peach blossom season at the Summer Palace. If you ask me which garden in Beijing is a must-visit in spring, I would definitely recommend the Summer Palace first. In March, the Summer Palace will turn into a landscape painting full of peach blossoms. 📍Best spot for flower viewing: The West Causeway of the Summer Palace. The peach trees on the West Causeway are a very special sight in Beijing. The trees grow by the water, with branches drooping into the lake. Compared to ordinary peach blossoms, they have a bit more wild charm. The West Causeway in spring really feels like you've arrived in the south of the Yangtze. The pink of the peach blossoms and the green of the willows, the long causeway with misty willows, combined with the mountain views, water views, ancient buildings, and water birds of the Summer Palace, these spring images together make up a grand spring scene. Every spot is a lively landscape painting.🌸 From dawn to dusk, the changing light and shadows of each time period present different flavors of beauty. Walking on the West Causeway, with the breeze, flowing water, and mountain flowers, you will completely immerse yourself in the beauty of this spring atmosphere! The peach blossoms on the West Causeway start from the Willow Bridge in the south to the Mirror Bridge in the north. Every spot is super photogenic, with lots of room for creativity. It's very suitable for both portraits and landscapes. 🚶🏻‍♂️Recommended tour route: The West Gate of the Summer Palace ➠ Mirror Bridge ➠ Lian Bridge ➠ Jingming Tower ➠ Willow Bridge 📷Scenes to photograph: Peach blossoms + ancient buildings: Four pavilions including Mirror Bridge, Lian Bridge, Jingming Tower, Willow Bridge Peach blossoms + water birds: Wild ducks, mandarin ducks, swans can be seen everywhere between Mirror Bridge and Willow Bridge Peach blossoms + mountain views: Standing on the West Causeway, the mountains are on the west side 🌸Information for March flower viewing: ✔️Peach blossoms on the West Causeway ✔️White magnolias at Leshou Hall ✔️Wax plums at Lenong Pavilion 🚇Subway: The most convenient route to the West Causeway: Take Line 10 to Bagou Station, transfer to the Xijiao Line, take one stop to the Summer Palace West Gate Station, and it's closer to the West Causeway than the North Palace Gate. 📌tips: The peach blossom season is very short.
