Believe me, the grand autumn of Yuanmingyuan is far more than just Pingxiangxie

⭐ The Apple Fragrance Pavilion at the Old Summer Palace has been incredibly popular lately, even on weekdays. While it's undeniable that it boasts stunning autumn scenery on the water, objectively speaking, the beauty of the Apple Fragrance Pavilion lies in its artistic conception. The reflections and fallen leaves are far more beautiful than the treetops themselves. The grandeur of autumn at the Old Summer Palace extends far beyond this; there are many other options for viewing the vibrant colors of the treetops.
⭐The winding water systems of the Changchun Garden and Qichun Garden in the Old Summer Palace are rich in resources. In this tranquil retreat, away from the hustle and bustle, many sacred white ash trees stand in their own beauty. Those who prefer a less bustling autumn experience might want to go and enjoy this. I'm sharing my hidden camera vantage point with you. All photos were taken on October 20, 2025:
