Don't miss out on autumn in Beijing this year~ Here are 5 recommended places to enjoy the fall foliage.
Don't miss out on autumn in Beijing this year~ Beijing in October and November is as beautiful as a painting. If you're planning to visit Beijing this fall, you can follow in my footsteps, stroll through the hutongs covered in fallen leaves, and experience the romance of autumn and the accumulation of history.
📜 Recommended Beijing Autumn Citywalk Routes
May Fourth Street: Every year in mid to late October, the poplar trees are golden. This is the starting point of autumn, and it's a sight to behold.
Beiluoguxiang: The hutong entrances are covered in fallen leaves. This is probably what Lao She's autumn in Beiping looked like. The golden leaves sway in the wind, bicycles shuttle through the hutongs, and the air is filled with the smell of fireworks.
Shichahai Park to Shichahai Sugar House: You can see people coming and going in Shichahai. In autumn, the leaves fall, and the sense of destiny is strong.
Jingshan Park: Overlooking the Palace Museum in autumn, the best time to shoot is at sunrise and sunset. The sun shines on the tiles, creating a beautiful scene.
Dongsi Shitiao: A street I always love to visit when I come to Beijing, it's especially suitable for city walks. The coffee shop on Zhangzizhong Road has a sign that says "If you don't come, it'll snow", adding a touch of poetry.

Beijing | Only two yuan to view the Forbidden City!
Visiting Beijing, one must see the full view of the Forbidden City, and the best place to do so is Wanchun Pavilion in Jingshan Park, directly facing the Gate of Divine Prowess.
Jingshan is not high, and it is easy for the elderly and children to climb.
There are still some peonies blooming at the moment, and compared to other scenic spots, there are very few tourists.
Friends who can't make it to the Forbidden City Museum should definitely come here!
👉 The ticket is only two yuan, so I go to Jingshan every time I visit Beijing, haha!
🌟 Highlights:
An excellent view overlooking the entire Forbidden City!
RICHARD STEWART
I don't want to go to Jingshan Park anymore
I don't want to go to Jingshan Park anymore... Every time I go, I get deeply immersed. The peonies are in full bloom... so beautiful it's indescribable... All sorts of photographers with their long and short lenses... Spraying water on the flowers with little spray bottles to create an artistic atmosphere... Peonies of various colors... And the cultural creative popsicles... I really can't go anymore... It's too exhausting for the legs... Remember, if you want to go inside to take photos of the peonies, you must wear comfortable shoes...

A Park that Overlooks Forbidden City!🇨🇳
#timetotravel
After we finished roaming around the Forbidden City, we kind of just followed the crowed that was heading to somewhere and they lead us to Jingshan Park. At first we thought it was just a common Chinese park to chillax but.. nope, you can actually climb up to the pavillion that offers you the view of the Forbidden City from above. That was quite a surprise to us which we really enjoyed. We also took the chance to take some photos in a Chinese tradition clothes with extra cost. We came here a few years back, before the pandemic so I am not sure of the entrance fee. Just double check on their website. I think you need a reservation now. When we were there we just bought tickets on the spot. Have a great visit ! #tripblazers #mytripvlog #chinatravel #park

JINGSHAN PARK in the center of BEIJING
Getting There - I took Metro Line 7 from DaJiaoTing Station to CiQuKou where I changed to Line 5 and got off at DongSi Station. From there I too bus number 128 to ShengWuMen and walked to the ticket station at the South Gate of JingShan Park.
Attractions - So many beautiful places to take pictures inside the park, but the highlight is getting to the top and seeing The Forbidden City in its full glory. The day I went was quite cloudy.

Check out this Beijing classic 👌
Take in the views over the Forbidden City across the street at Jingshan park. It's cheap entry with a short walk to the top. Take your time on the way up the hill, it's pretty picturesque with views of the whole city.
It gets super crowded so it may take a while before you manage to work your way to the front of the crowd to catch the view. Once at the front take whatever pictures you want before you leave, it'll be hard to get back in again 🙏

Jingshan Park in Bloom
Nestled away behind the Forbidden City/Beijing Palace is a beautiful park.
We visited in April 2019 which was right in the middle of Spring so all the flowers were in bloom. There were some beautiful displays all perfectly cultivated a styled it was a joy to wander around. Although we passed a lot of people the park never felt crowded. It is also a fantastic spot to gaze down in to the Forbidden City if you don't want to brave the crazy crowds. The view from the Wanchun Pavilion is wonderful. It was only mildly smogy on the day we visited so it felt like we could see for miles and mile in every direction.
There are plenty of panic areas in the park, but we picked up snacks from the little kiosk at the entry gate and munched as we walked around. Trying to stave off the jetlag. We did stop for tea and biscuits at a beautiful little teahouse somewhere near the west gate. It was so peaceful sitting in the courtyard watching people pass by and the tea was delicious.
On our way out we got caught up amongst some flat twirlers. All the children were joining in so being young at heart we decided to give it a go as well. Lets just say my coordination must have still been wandering around the park because i ended up wrapped in the flag more than twirling it. But it made people laugh so not at all a bad thing.
This was a perfect first day on our China visit.

Jingshan Park, Beijing
We hit this one at the end of a long day, got one of those candy strawberry treats that I can’t spell to keep going! My friend who took me was so excited, said it’s his favourite view in the city and I see why! Truly amazing, especially seeing one side, a much older side, of the city and then the newer side in the same place. There was a rather large crowd but with everything if you wait a second most people will move shortly, unfortunately some people had set up tripods and weren’t planning on moving anytime soon so you just have to work around them. If you get there a bit before sunset you should walk around the park a bit it’s a beautiful park especially with golden hour.

❄️ A snowy day at the Forbidden City ❄️
As soon as it snows in Beijing, you should wrap yourself in your warmest coat and head to Jingshan Park to see the historic Forbidden City (故宫) covered in snow.
Situated directly north of the Forbidden City, Jingshan park is the only hill in Beijing (it was man made with the soil that was excavated when creating the moat around the Forbidden City). It is the best place to oversee the old imperial city.
Be careful when climbing the many stairs to the pagoda on top of the hill as not only are they icy, they may be crowded. Be prepared to use your elbows to get an advantageous viewpoint to take your photo of the snowy buildings (totally worth it). You may even be lucky enough to have clear blue skies and a view all the way to the surrounding mountains.
Afterwards, take the time to walk around the moat of the Forbidden city as the frozen water and snowy snowscape provide beautiful photo opportunities.

Jing Shan Park, and central hill of Jing Shan Park, Beijing, the bright Capital of The People's Republic of China.
The climbing will take no more than ten or fifteen minutes but it will be full of impressions. On the way to the central pavilion at the top of hill where emperor would like to have rest watching his own land there are small pavilions from the both sides of the both paths. Yes there are two paths going to the top from two opposite sides. Green treas and evergreen pines are accompanying visitors all the time. That was the nice walk in the nice weather.

The Green Path of Jing Shan Park. Beijing, the capital of People's Republic of China. Jing Shan Park is occupying very little space on the map of Beijing, almost a dot in this mega size city but it is magically attractive! The gree npath is a route for walking in Jing Shan Park around the hill with observation deck. The tall and old trees stand Luke's soldiers along the road, probably, in ancient time their function was not only beautify landscape and clean air, but also give the feeling of protection to the restless emperor, it is really looks like a soldiers standing without any move and providing the corridor for passing through.
The air is clean, it smells pines, this intangible fragrancy, perfect air for lungs.

This time our destination is Beijing, the capital of The People's Republic of China, the autonomous city, the heart of Chinese culture. We are in Jing Shan Park which is also known as emperor summer residence. This park and visitors area could be subdivided into several parts. One of them is a gallery with exposition of ancient Chinese painting. Now we are in this gallery where the paintings of several dynasties are presented to be studied, including Qing dynasty.

景山公园 or Jing Shan Park ,aka Emperor summer residence. Beijing. And it is located straight in front of Forbidden City gates, just need to across the road and you are in this beautiful park. Jing Shan Park or Jing Mountain Park is especially charming during the summer. The visit will require about two hours to walk slowly around and to climb the hill. At the top is located the observation pavilion giving magnificent view on the surroundings. Definitely should be visited.

#culturetrip Jingshan Park or Jingshan Gongyuan (景山公园) is a large park located to the north of the Forbidden City in Beijing, China. The highlight here is the mountain in the middle of the park. When you walk up to the top of the mountain, you will be able to see the Forbidden City from a high angle. Seeing the Forbidden City from this angle, I must say that it is really beautiful and magnificent. This mountain is not very high. There are stairs to walk up conveniently. But it is quite tiring to walk to the top. But the view is worth the effort. For friends who visit here, you must walk up to the top.

Beijing during the National Day | On the occasion of the birth of the motherland, the Jingshan Park and Beihai Park were punched, and the red flags were everywhere, and the flowers were full of festive colors. If you don't go to the scenic spot in Beijing, you can see different scenery in the process of walking the streets. Many people think that the pace of life in Beijing is too fast, and it is only in the hutong that they can feel a little comfort. The dream of being a traveler is to travel around the world, but the world is big, but there is only one in China! I love my motherland, bless my motherland, happy birthday!

Jingshan Park
#chinatrip
Located just north of the Forbidden City, Jingshan Park offers stunning panoramic views of Beijing. Climbing the central hill rewards visitors with breathtaking vistas of the Forbidden City and beyond. This man-made hill, constructed during the Ming Dynasty, is steeped in history. The park is also a serene place to experience Beijing’s local culture, with elderly residents practicing tai chi or singing traditional songs. Visit during sunset for a magical experience. It’s a perfect spot to relax after a busy day of sightseeing and appreciate the harmony of nature and urban life.

You haven't been to Beijing if you haven't taken a photo here!
It's time to visit Beijing!
To see the century-old royal gardens
To see the red walls and blue tiles of the Temple of Heaven
To see the Tiananmen Square and the Great Wall in textbooks
To see the courtyards in the alleys bathed in golden light

But no words can describe the shock of seeing it for the first time
Just like the lyrics say

Trip to Beijing 🇨🇳
It was a trip to Beijing, China recently. Beijing in autumn is absolutely breathtaking, with vibrant golden hues painting the city’s landscapes. We had the chance to explore some iconic spots that are a must-visit for anyone who loves capturing history, culture, and nature through lens.
We visited the Forbidden City, a marvel of ancient Chinese architecture that leaves you in awe at every corner. Walking through the sprawling courtyards and intricate palace halls, we felt transported back to the Ming and Qing dynasties 👑. The symmetry, vivid colors, and dramatic rooflines make it an exceptional spot for photography 📸Don’t miss climbing up Jingshan Park (just outside the north gate) to capture a panoramic view of the entire complex, it’s a shot worth framing.
📍 4 Jingshan Front St, Dongcheng District, Beijing, China
We also explored the Great Wall at Mutianyu, a section that combines breathtaking scenery with fewer crowds. The crisp autumn air and the vibrant foliage along the wall create the perfect backdrop for stunning photos 📸 We recommend taking the cable car 🚡 up to Tower 14 for sweeping views and walking along the wall to truly soak in its magnificence. It’s a surreal experience to stand on such a historic marvel and witness its vastness.
📍Mutianyu Village, Huairou District, Beijing, China
Another gem we visited was the Summer Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The tranquil Kunming Lake mirrors the surrounding foliage, and the Long Corridor’s intricate paintings provide vibrant pops of color. We recommend catching the sunset 🌅 from Longevity Hill for golden-hour shots that highlight the beauty of this imperial garden.
📍19 Xinjiangongmen Rd, Haidian District, Beijing, China
We also wandered through Nanluoguxiang, a historic hutong (alley) filled with charming courtyards, quaint cafes ☕️ , and boutique shops 🛍️ This area offers a mix of old Beijing charm and modern vibes, making it a fantastic spot for candid street photography 📸 The playful contrast between traditional gray-brick buildings and colorful murals is captivating.
📍Nanluoguxiang, Dongcheng District, Beijing, China
Beijing is a city that blends history and nature seamlessly, especially in the fall. If you love photography and want a destination rich with culture and beauty, we would highly recommend adding these spots to your itinerary.

Jingshan Park in autumn, Beijing.
This morning, Jingshan Park was shrouded in mist after the rain. The ginkgo trees near the west gate were a brilliant yellow. The persimmon leaves have fallen, leaving the branches heavy with fruit. Signs along the road remind passersby to walk carefully to avoid being hit by falling persimmons. The Wen Chuang Cafe near the west gate was not yet open, but its exterior was elegantly decorated. In addition to coffee, the cafe also serves creative seasonal teas, and has both indoor and outdoor seating. Jingshan Park is not very large, and the classic route is to climb Wanchun Pavilion and look out over the buildings along the central axis of Beijing. Shouhuang Hall is a large-scale place for ancestor worship. A few bus stops from the west gate of Jingshan Park is Beihai Park.
