📍 **Unbeatable location**: Inside the West Third Ring Road, a 10-minute walk from Military Museum Station on subway lines 1/9. Next to the CCTV Tower, it's a natural oxygen bar in the city!
🌸 **Spring's top attraction**: The main venue for the city's hotly contested "Cherry Blossom Festival"! Over 3,000 cherry trees, including mountain cherry blossoms, bloom together. Don't miss a photo of the pink corridor with the TV tower.
🌿 **Scenic all year round**: Boating on the lake and cycling around the lake are available all year round. There are also wild ducks inhabiting the central island!
📸 **Hidden photo spots**:
1️⃣ Cherry Blossom Lawn—Look up to capture birds in flight and the tower's shadow.
2️⃣ Lakeside boardwalk on Zhongshan Island—Sunset and the evening glow reflecting on the lake.
💡 **Tips**: Enter the park at 6am to capture empty scenes! The cherry blossom-themed ice cream at the east gate's small shop is both beautiful and delicious.
