As Start of Winter approaches, Beijing's weather gets colder by the day. At this time, red leaves have fallen and ginkgo leaves are gradually fading. Where to go for fun? Winter in Beijing is less noisy and more peaceful, deeper and more poetic.
Now, the beautiful scenery of Beijing in early winter is already here. Let's enjoy it together with us!
Danqingpu Park

Although early winter has arrived, the autumn charm in Danqingpu Park remains undiminished. The yellow leaf forests in the park are particularly beautiful. When the breeze blows, leaves flutter around, and the trees and the ground are covered in golden hues, which is extremely delightful to behold.

The fallen yellow leaves cover the ground, decorating the entire road like a "golden avenue." Walking along it is especially pleasant, making people can't help but stop and linger.

Every year, this stunning golden scenery attracts many photography enthusiasts. If you like taking photos or appreciating beautiful scenery, you can visit on weekends; otherwise, you will have to wait another year to see this beauty.
Linglong Park

Linglong Park boasts an extremely beautiful environment but is little-known. It has mountain pavilions, lake terraces, winding paths, streams, plants, and flower seas. Even in early winter, the beautiful yellow leaf scenery is waiting for you here.

The biggest highlight of the park is the Linglong Pagoda, which has a history of more than 400 years. Originally named Yong'an Wanshou Pagoda, the pagoda is the only remaining structure of Cishou Temple after a big fire during the Guangxu reign of the Qing Dynasty.
The ancient pagoda is tall, graceful, and exquisitely carved. Standing below and looking up at the pagoda, it is not difficult to see the traces left from that time.

Wandering in this small and exquisite park, there is no harsh cold of the deepest winter, but the graceful charm of late autumn remains—it is beautifully balanced. Does such wonderful scenery make you yearn for it?
Longtan Park

Longtan Park has a unique charm at this time, just like a knocked-over palette with bright yellow and vivid red colors.
Colorful leaves adorn the large park, and every corner holds the unique beauty of early winter.

Longtan Hu (Lake) has a water surface of 300,000 square meters, which is quite large in downtown Beijing. The lake shore of the park is winding, and the lake water is clear. On a comfortable early winter afternoon, walking along the 3,700-meter winding lake shore and enjoying the abundant negative oxygen ions that seem to be dripping with freshness, your mood will become more relaxed and pleasant.
Ritan Park

Ritan (The Temple of the Sun) is one of Beijing's Five Great Altars of cultural relics and historic sites. It was a place where emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties worshipped the Sun God. The park is shaded by dense trees and has a quiet scenery. Whether it is the palace lanterns hanging from the corners of ancient buildings, or the pavilions and lake terraces peeking out from the trees, they inadvertently bring people a dreamlike garden tour with their simplicity and elegance, evoking memories of a glorious and prosperous past.

Ritan's autumn scenery is not as famous as Ditan's, but after the autumn leaves turn yellow, it also has elegant small scenes. Ritan's winter scenery is especially beautiful, which is rare in the capital. It is a suitable place for walking and enjoying the warm winter sun.
Start of Winter marks the transition from autumn to winter. In early winter, ginkgo leaves fall, covering the ground in golden yellow.
While the leaves are still on the trees and Beijing's early winter still retains its colors, invite friends for a winter gathering.
