Not many red leaves on November 7 🏠Xiangshan Park (Xiangshan Subdistrict, Haidian District) 💰CNY 10 - ❤I haven't been to Xiangshan for many years. I didn't expect so many people on Thursday. Many students came for an autumn outing. · ❤It took me more than an hour to climb to the top of Xianglu Peak. There were not many red leaves along the way, and many ginkgo leaves had fallen. Looking down from the top of the mountain, many trees were still green. - ❤I ate snacks all the way up, and I felt like I ate more than I consumed. - The CNY 10 ticket is really cheap. The mineral water on the mountain is sold for CNY 5 a bottle, which is also acceptable. - Unfortunately, there was heavy smog on the day I went. I couldn't see the bottom of the mountain from the top, and it was hard to breathe.
