South Caiyuan West Street, Xicheng District, Beijing.

Covering an area of 13 hectares, with more than 40 pavilions and temples.

Corridors, palaces, landscapes, flowers, trees, and singing birds... It's like a fairyland on earth.

Between ordinary residential buildings and next to a normal market, it is a dream place of many people.

In the early morning of a working day, I entered from the west gate of the Grand View Garden, but I did not expect that it was already full of people, and there were even many tourists from other provinces and cities who made a special trip to the Grand View Garden to relive the Dream of Red Mansions.

In the strolling garden, the familiar courtyard is elegant, and the familiar garden scenery.

Children run around in the garden, asking with their sweet voices: "Where is this?" "Whose house is that?" Moms and dads would tell them a few stories, explaining that "This is the house where Lin Daiyu lived" and "They lived here a long, long time ago."

Tourists who don't know about "The Dream of Red Mansions" also read out the tourist guides of every courtyard, "So this place was built for the imperial concubine Yuan to return to her natal house" and "Their house was really generous at the time, but why did it decline?"

This seems to be the charm of Beijing Grand View Garden - it seems that no one really regards it as a filming location for TV crews, but the living Grand View Garden, which carries living people and things.

Even after the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions", more than 130 movies, TV series, and feature films have been filmed here. People still believe that this is the Grand View Garden in "The Dream of Red Mansions".

Regardless of whether or not fan of "The Dream of Red Mansions", every visitor here would subconsciously believe what Cao Xueqin wrote actually happened here, and visiting this garden is just like pay respects to some old friends.

Today's Beijing Grand View Garden is not only a cultural and architectural landscape located in a corner of the capital. "Red" fans regard it as a dream outside the dream of "The Dream of Red Mansions"; architects evaluate how it perfectly combines the value of the masterpiece with ancient construction techniques; landscape architects believe that it adds a new type of "masterpiece garden" to Chinese gardens; scholars of cultural relics argue that it is not an ancient cultural relic itself, but creates a potential cultural heritage...
