No Turning Back: Magnolia Flower Viewing Route at Pudu Temple, Taimiao, Zhongshan Park

The magnolias in Beijing's "First Ring Road" have finally reached their best viewing period. A 🚶‍♀️walking flower-viewing route takes you to check in at three places where magnolias are in full bloom. Don't go back, enjoy the spring with fewer people and beautiful scenery🌸 👉Recommended route: 🚇Metro Tiananmen East - 🛕Pudu Temple (Magnolia) - Enter from the East Gate 🏞️Beijing Workers' Cultural Palace (Magnolia) West Gate - Enter from the East Gate 🏞️Zhongshan Park (plum blossoms, tulips 🌷, mountain peach blossoms 🌸, magnolia) Southwest Gate - 🚇Metro Tiananmen West 📸Filming date: March 20, 2025, morning ✅This route completely avoids the large number of tourists going to Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. Although you will go through three security checks🛂, it is better because there are fewer people and the queue is faster. ✅The magnolias of Pudu Temple are planted on the east and west sides of the main hall. They are mainly white magnolias. Those near the main hall have entered the best flowering period. You can take pictures with the ancient buildings. There are few people and the pictures are good. ✅The magnolias in the Working People's Cultural Palace can be located in the "Prince Forest" 🌳. There are several magnolias on the east and west sides. The ones on the east side are a bit dilapidated, while the ones on the west side are just right. The flowers are dense and low, which is very convenient for taking portraits 👩 (the pine and cypress trees in the garden are currently emitting pollen. When the wind blows, the pollen will float like fog. It is recommended to wear a mask 😷) ✅There is a Taimiao in the Labor People's Cultural Palace. If you have enough time, you can buy a ticket to visit it. It has the largest existing golden nanmu palace in China🏯 ✅The magnolia in Zhongshan Park is the most worth photographing in front of the Lanting Pavilion. The white magnolia is set off by the blue pavilion, which gives a different feeling. The magnolia flowers here are very large, and they are white and transparent under the sunlight, which looks very beautiful. ✅In addition, the Tulip Cultural Festival is currently being held in Zhongshan Park. The first batch of cultivated tulips 💐 have already appeared in the flowerbed of the park. The plum blossoms in the plum garden are about 20% in bloom, so you can wait for about another week. The mountain peach blossoms 🌸 in front of the Concert Hall are blooming particularly well, so you can stop by 📸 to enjoy the flowers and take pictures ‼ ️This flower-viewing route is mainly for viewing and photographing magnolias. Currently, the magnolias in these three places are in their best blooming period and should last for about a week. 🎫About tickets 🔸Pudu Temple: Free 🔸Beijing Workers' Cultural Palace: 2 yuan, free with 💳trade union card; Imperial Ancestral Temple 💰 ticket 10 yuan 🔸Zhongshan Park: Tickets are 3 yuan, free with annual park pass 🎟️; Tanghuawu Huifang Garden inside charges an additional 💰 ticket of 5 yuan, and there is a 🌷 tulip special exhibition
