Blooming Spring in Beijing: A Quiet Healing Experience in the Parks

🌸Blooming Spring in Beijing: A Quiet Healing Experience in the Parks🌿

⸻

Spring in Beijing is shorter than expected, but I never imagined it could be this radiant during its brief moment.

In the heart of the city,
Beyond the red walls of the Forbidden City or beside a lakeside bench,
Cherry blossoms, magnolias, apricot flowers, and lilacs were blooming as if competing to be the first.

Just walking around, you can feel spring carried in the air.

🌷Top Flower Viewing Spots in Beijing This Time

🌿 Ditan Park (Temple of Earth Park)
A must-visit spring walking course where the lake, pavilions, and peach blossoms come together in one frame!
Thanks to its quiet atmosphere, it's also perfect for sitting on a bench and reading a book.

🌸 Yuanmingyuan (Old Summer Palace)
Wild cherry blossoms and apricot flowers blooming amidst royal ruins.
The spring flowers blooming over the ruins felt even more special.

🌼 Olympic Forest Park
Expansive meadows with tulips, forsythias, and lilacs in full bloom!
Walking through the park lightens both your body and mind.
