🌸 Yuanmingyuan Peony Flower Sea – Must-Visit This Week! 🌸

#springitinerary
If you’re in Beijing this May, don’t miss the stunning peony blooms at Yuanmingyuan (Old Summer Palace)! The flowers are in full swing right now, and this week is the perfect time to catch them at their best.

🕖 Opening hours: 7:00–21:00
🎫 Tickets: 10 RMB (entry) / 25 RMB (combo)
🚇 Getting there: Take metro Line 4 or 16, get off at Xiyuan Station (Exit A)

💐 Highlights:
The peony field is surrounded by a fence, but the flowers are super close — perfect for dreamy portraits and close-ups
There's even a small patch outside the fence blooming beautifully for easy photo ops
Along the way, you’ll also see roses, yellow wildflowers, and lush green lawns — so scenic!
📸 Photo tip:
Come early to avoid crowds, and wear something light and flowy — think white dresses or straw hats for that soft, romantic look 💕

📍 Route: Enter from Shenyuan Gate, walk toward "Hongci Yonghu" — follow the flower-lined path and detour by the lake for those pretty peony close-ups.
