As autumn brings vibrant colors, several parks are showcasing trees with full shapes and brilliant hues, turning them into new "internet celebrities." These stunning displays are attracting many visitors and photography enthusiasts eager to take photos and enjoy the picturesque scenery.

Summer Palace

◆ Houxi River

Along the banks of Houxi River in the Summer Palace, the leaves of colorful plants like ash, ginkgo, and persimmon trees, as well as maple and oak species, are gradually changing color. The vibrant foliage reflects beautifully on the calm river surface, creating a stunning autumn landscape. The best time for photography here is between 9 AM and 10 AM, when the soft sunlight bathes the leaves and the water, resembling a brilliant oil painting.

◆ Xiequ Garden

In Xiequ Garden, on the east and west sides of Hanyuantang, dozens of native Beijing big-fruited elms grow naturally on the rockeries. Their autumn leaves transition from orange to red to brown, perfectly complementing the ancient architecture and providing excellent photographic opportunities.

Yuanmingyuan (Old Summer Palace)

◆ Pingxiang Pavilion

Pingxiang Pavilion in Yuanmingyuan is one of Beijing's earliest yellow-leaf areas and a favorite first stop for many Hanfu enthusiasts during autumn photography. Here, several dense white ash trees shimmer in the sunlight, their golden leaves radiating a warm glow. The large expanse of water beautifully reflects the trees' shadows, creating a picturesque scene with yellow leaves, the lake's surface, and their reflections, resembling an overturned palette. However, the leaves turn yellow quickly and fall just as fast, so it's best to take photos early.

Daguanyuan (Grand View Garden)

◆ Ziling Island

The ginkgo trees at Ziling Island in Daguanyuan, paired with the corridor in the water and the ancient buildings in the background, exude a rich historical charm.

◆ Tubi Mountain Villa

At Tubi Mountain Villa, the bright red leaves of the climbing ivy are striking. From the highest point of the pavilion, the golden ginkgo trees behind create a stunning frame.

National Botanical Garden (Northern Garden)

◆ Cherry Blossom Valley

In late autumn, the bald cypress forest in Cherry Blossom Valley at the National Botanical Garden dons its autumn attire, showcasing an ancient and solemn atmosphere. Walking along the wooden paths, the towering trees create a canopy overhead, as if recounting the passage of time, revealing a resilient and weathered beauty.

Zizhuyuan (Purple Bamboo Garden)

◆ Wenyue Tower

The red maple in front of Wenyue Tower in Zizhuyuan stands out among other "internet celebrity" trees due to its strikingly vibrant red color. It has been voted the "reddest tree in Beijing" by netizens, especially against the backdrop of blue skies, white walls, and rocks, quickly gaining popularity.

◆ South Small Lake

At South Small Lake in Zizhuyuan Park, a beautifully shaped and densely growing willows stands tall, reaching over ten meters. In late autumn, it forms a golden natural painting alongside the remaining lotus leaves.
