Zhongshan Park

Zhongshan Park has a very long history of wisteria planting, with more than 50 wisteria plants, of which the highest and most beautiful is the white wisteria trellis on the south side of Huifang Garden. The four ancient cypress wisteria trellis on the west side outside the South Temple Gate have the most ancient charm. The most popular is the hexagonal wisteria trellis on the south side of the Slaughtering Pavilion on the west road. The most low-key is the wisteria trellis behind the tea house Laijin Yuxuan.

Under the trellis, occasionally a breeze blows and the fragrance of wisteria spreads out, refreshing the heart. In addition to wisteria, tulips in Zhongshan Park are also in full bloom. Tourists can take a photo with the gorgeous flowers and freeze the beautiful spring day with the lens.

Yuyuantan Park

The spring breeze blows green willows and flowers stand on the branches. Nowadays, more than 100 wisteria flowers in Yuyuantan Park have bloomed, becoming another new highlight after cherry blossoms.

Standing under the pergolas, you can enjoy strings of flowing purple flowers. They form a pink-purple landscape, like spring in a fairy tale. In this season of flowers, this unique purple is also a must-see beauty in April.

In the back mountain of the cherry garden in the park, 10 flower ribbon landscapes created by a variety of flowers have become the finishing touch during the spring flower viewing season in the park, with a viewing area of more than 3,000 square meters, which is incredibly beautiful.

Beijing Kongmiao and Imperial College Museum

Kongmiao and Imperial College Museum is the second largest Confucius temple in China. After entering the Dacheng Gate, you can see several tall ancient trees standing on both sides of the road.  

The centenarian wisteria and lilac flowers hang all over the cypress trees beside it. The sunlight is warm. The red walls, glazed tiles and wisteria flowers constitute a brilliant picture, full of poetry, showing the beauty of wisteria and the solemnity of ancient buildings.
