October live update! Reach the stunning ginkgo forest in Beijing in 40 minutes, so few people you can have the whole autumn scene to yourself

Hey guys! Who knew! Beijing actually hides such an amazing “autumn secret base” 😱
Hundreds of acres of ginkgo forest so beautiful it leaves you speechless! October is the peak of golden season, with few people and beautiful scenery without the crowds. You can rush here from downtown in just 40 minutes. This breathtaking autumn scenery is a must-see 🤌

🍂【Ginkgo Forest Babysitter-Level Travel Tips】

✅ How to tour the park?
The park is huge! It has 2 entrances:

- Enter from the East Gate: Head straight to “Ginkgo Avenue,” where two rows of ginkgo trees form a canopy, and fallen leaves create a “golden carpet.” Walking in feels like stepping into a fairy tale world 📸 (Wear light-colored clothes! Photos come with a natural soft light filter)
- Enter from the West Gate: First visit “Ginkgo Lake,” where the golden tree crowns reflect on the water. When the wind blows, leaves drift into the lake, making every snap a “perfect autumn atmosphere shot”~

✅ Hidden photo spots:
Deep inside the park is a “deserted ginkgo forest” with denser trees and thicker fallen leaves. Sit on the ground for photos (remember to bring a picnic blanket), and you can have the whole autumn scene to yourself!

🚗【Transportation + Food One-Stop Guide】

- Transportation: 40 minutes by car from downtown (navigate to “Nancai Ginkgo Park,” which has free parking); you can also take Metro Line 15 to Fengbo Station, then a 10-minute taxi ride~
- Nearby food:
✅ After leaving the park, head straight to “Shunyi Specialty Stove Fish”: pancake wraps + stewed silver carp, the fish is so tender it falls apart, and the pancakes soak up the broth so delicious you’ll want to stomp your feet 🤤
✅ For light eaters: Nearby is “Autumn Chestnut Coffee House,” with roasted chestnuts + osmanthus latte. Sitting by the window watching the falling leaves is so cozy you won’t want to leave~

💡【Avoid Pitfalls Tips】

❌ Don’t wear high heels! The park paths are many; wear sneakers/canvas shoes to stroll all afternoon without getting tired
✅ Bring a light jacket: The afternoon sun is warm, but mornings and evenings are a bit chilly. You can take off your jacket for photos without feeling cold~
✅ Arrive before 9 AM: Fewest people! The sunlight slants down, making the ginkgo leaves glow ✨

In October, no need to squeeze into Xiangshan! This ginkgo forest locks in the romance of autumn
Invite friends on the weekend to stroll the forest, take photos, and eat stove fish. It’s so comfortable you’ll want to tuck autumn into your pocket~
