Jingshan Park is worth visiting in all seasons, but spring is the best time to visit.

Jingshan Park, the classical royal garden of the capital, needs no introduction, and tourists flock here all year round. Although it can be visited in all seasons, spring is undoubtedly the most beautiful season for the garden landscape. In the spring when hundreds of flowers are in full bloom, a bit of bright and charming color is added to this classical garden with its evergreen pines and cypresses, and a bit more of the natural atmosphere of singing birds and fragrant flowers. 🌿Spring Itinerary: Climb to overlook the central axis + spring outing to enjoy the flowers ⛰️Jingshan Scenic Overview: It is true that going to Jingshan without climbing to the top is a waste of time. In fact, Jingshan is not high, with an altitude of only over 90 meters. It used to be the highest point on the central axis. Standing on the top of the hill, you can see the scenery in all directions from Wanchun Pavilion. South➡️Overlooking the panoramic view of the Forbidden City North➡️Overlooking the Bell and Drum Towers at the northern end of the central axis East➡️Overlooking the China Zun, Beijing's new landmark West➡️Beihai White Pagoda 🌸Enjoying Flowers and Taking Pictures: Currently, the magnolia blossoms are past their bloom. The main flowers to see are the flowering plum, Japanese quince, and purple-leaf plum. Lilacs can be expected in April, and peonies in May. 📸Tips for Taking Photos Without People: Spring is the time to take photos with flowers, but in a park with many tourists, you need to put some thought into taking photos without people. 1. Vary According to the Flowers: Tall flowering trees are suitable for taking full-body photos in the distance, such as purple-leaf plum. Short flowering trees like flowering plum are suitable for taking close-ups, half-length photos, or close-up shots. 2. Misalignment and Obstruction: When there are many people, you can also use flowers, leaves, or other objects to block passers-by from entering the frame. For example, when taking a long shot, block the people behind by adjusting the position of the person standing. When taking a close-up, you can shoot through the gaps between the flowers and leaves, and the other people next to you will be blocked. 3. Go Early Rather Than Late: There will be fewer group tourists if you enter the park before 8:00 am. 📍Location and Transportation: No. 44 Jingshan West Street, Xicheng District, Beijing 🎫Ticket Price: CNY 2 🕑Opening Hours: 6:00-21:00
