It's a perfect autumn day for a stroll in Zhongshan Park, followed by morning tea at Lai Jin Yu Xuan

Zhongshan Park is a favorite of mine, offering something special in every season. I visited on November 7th, and although there weren't many ginkgo trees in their autumn colors, the few that were there made quite a sight. I also had the chance to experience the tea house, Lai Jin Yu Xuan. It's essential to get in line before 9 a.m., as I learned the hard way by waiting for two hours because I was late. At present, you need to book a day in advance to visit Zhongshan Park (unless you have an annual pass). If you want to enter from the south gate, you also need to book Tiananmen, as the south gate is entrance-only.

Zhong Shan Park

This park was just what we needed after a very busy morning at the Palace Museum. The gardens are pretty and it was relatively quiet after the crowds outside. A minimal entrance charge. This was where we found the only children's playground during our time in Beijing to the delight of our 3 and 5 year olds. The entrance charge for this was well more than the park but worth it after we had all walked through the palace museum. But instead of a tourist attraction, I think it's more like a beautiful normal park, where you can take a walk with your family after dinner. Though it's definitely not as famous as Tiananmen Square, it shows the beauty of this old town-Beijing of its own way. So if you've already gone to the Tiananmen Square, just spend some time at the park too. It's a place worth visiting. #beijingtrip #urbanexplorer #palace

Zhongshan Park, 3 yuan tickets to give you an autumn feast Zhongshan Park's three yuan tickets and bad parking, will exclude some people, so the number of people who come to appreciate this autumn is significantly less. Moreover, most of the tourists are concentrated on the ginkgo road that goes to Zhongshan Hall. If the light is very good and the sky is very blue, with the red wall and green tile gold leaves, the autumn of Zhongshan Park is really beautiful, and it doesn't lose spring. Park Ginkgo is concentrated in the place 1, passing an arch, going to the temple to go to the Zhongshan Road, I called it Ginkgo Road 2, the west side of the entrance In the Shuiyu Scenic Area, there are several tall trees at the water's edge, which can be used with the promenade building.

Zhongshan Park

Zhongshan Park is located in the center of Beijing, adjacent to Tiananmen Square to the east. According to the official website in March 2023, the park covers an area of 23.8 hectares and is a commemorative classical altar temple garden. Zhongshan Park was once the Xingguo Temple during the Liao Dynasty. In 1420, it was built as the Altar of Earth and Grain according to the 'Rites of Zhou' which dictates 'ancestral temples on the left, altars to the gods of earth and grain on the right.' In 1914, it was opened as Central Park. In 1925, after the death of Mr. Sun Yat-sen, his coffin was placed in the worship hall in the park, and a public memorial service was held. In 1928, to commemorate Mr. Sun Yat-sen, it was renamed Zhongshan Park. See the historical evolution The park features famous landscapes such as Liao cypresses, Altar of Earth and Grain, Zhongshan Hall, Peace Defense Archway, Orchid Pavilion Stele Pavilion, Maxim Pavilion, Huifang Garden, and Tang Flower Gallery.

The Clethra is in full bloom~ Check-in at Zhongshan Park

Clethra, also known as the beauty bush, lives up to its name. The proudly blooming Clethra, with its soft branches different from other flowers, is like holding up a rainbow after the rain, stringing together colorful blossoms, dazzling and varied. Each pale pink corolla wraps around a yellow core, with fuzzy petals that seem to have a soft-focus filter, and a subtle fragrance that is truly captivating. At first glance, the Clethra resembles plants from the Lamiaceae family due to its flowers. It has a bell-shaped corolla with five lobes, and the lower lip has beautiful orange markings that extend deep into the corolla, like a girl in a gauze dress, slightly shy. Clethra, if one were to guess the relationship between its name and hedgehogs, it would be the small, densely spined yellow bristles on its tiny fruits, which indeed resemble hedgehogs, complete with little claws, like little hedgehogs curled into 'spiny balls' when startled. Touching the fruit of the Clethra, one will find that it is not as prickly as a hedgehog's spines. The spiny fruits of the Clethra are for easy animal dispersal; they can hook onto the fur of animals and be carried far away, much like the well-known cocklebur. There is a Clethra plant behind the Jin Yu Xuan teahouse in Zhongshan Park, about 2 meters tall with a wide and lush bush. During the flowering season, against the backdrop of blue skies, white clouds, and ancient cypress shades, it is like a hanging waterfall of flowers. The spectacular sight of its blooming will make one feel the happiness of 'Who would be drunk in front of flowers if not for this?'. Have you ever seen the Clethra in full bloom? Do you like the splendid scene of its profuse blossoms? Come to Zhongshan Park and experience its beauty!

Originally the Xingguo Temple during the Liao and Jin dynasties, it was renamed Wanshou Xingguo Temple in the Yuan dynasty. In the nineteenth year of the Yongle reign of the Ming dynasty (1421), when Emperor Zhu Di built the Beijing palace, he restructured it into the Altar of Land and Grain according to the 'left ancestor right community' system. This place became where the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties worshipped the gods of land and grain. In 1914, it was turned into the Central Park, and in 1925, the coffin of Mr. Sun Yat-sen was placed in the worship hall for people from all walks of life to pay their respects. In 1928, it was renamed Zhongshan Park.

Zhongshan Park in Beijing, located near Shichahai in Xicheng District, Beijing, is a park with a long history and profound cultural heritage. Its predecessor was the royal garden of the Ming Dynasty - Zhongnanhai Lake, which was established during the period of Ming Chengzu. Later, during the period of the Republic of China, Zhongshan Park was expanded and renovated to commemorate the great revolutionary pioneer Mr. Sun Yat-sen.

Tulips, silent and elegant, in Zhongshan Park.

Don't miss the annual flower event in Beijing city, especially the tulips in Zhongshan Park, which are loved by everyone. The appearance and color of tulips are elegant and beautiful, known as the "queen of spring flowers". Now there are more and more varieties of tulips, and every year there are new and eye-catching varieties. Tulips were first cultivated by the Turks 1000 years ago and were originally just wildflowers. In the late 15th century, beautiful tulip flowers bloomed in the Linden Botanical Garden in the Netherlands. In the early 20th century, tulip cultivation in the Netherlands made rapid progress and became a pillar industry. The Dutch people regarded tulips as their national flower. As early as 1977, Zhongshan Park received 39 varieties of tulip bulbs in 4 boxes from the Dutch royal family, and began specialized research and cultivation. The language of tulips is love, care, elegance, wealth, capability, and intelligence. This year, you can see multiple varieties of tulips near Huawu, with introductions included.

Located to the south of Tian'anmen, Zhongshan Park is just over the wall from the Imperial Palace. This is a commemorative and classic altar garden. The Shejitan, which was built during the Ming and Qing dynasties, briefly held Sun Yat-sen's body for a period after his death. The park was hereby renamed Zhongshan Park in his honor.
