Beijing Fall Foliage | Beihai Park Ginkgo Viewing Guide

I've been to Beijing many times, and my favorite seasons are fall and winter. The colorful leaves in fall, combined with the pavilions and towers, create a unique charm! After a snowfall in winter, Beijing transforms into the Forbidden City! Today, I'm sharing a guide to viewing ginkgo trees in Beihai Park. I hope it helps those planning to visit! ⭐️Ginkgo Viewing Spots 1️⃣ Wanfo Tower Ruins: Located on the north shore of the park, the ginkgo trees here are tall and lush. In fall, the ginkgo leaves turn golden yellow, complementing the ancient buildings like Miaoxiang Pavilion to the west and Baoji Tower to the east, creating a unique atmosphere. 2️⃣ Near Fangshan Restaurant: East of Kuaixue Hall, there are a few ginkgo trees in front of Fangshan Restaurant. The golden leaves often cover the ground, making for great photos. 3️⃣ South of Xianchan Altar: There are ginkgo trees south of Xianchan Altar on the east shore. You can use the red wall as a background for stunning photos. 🍃Basic Information 🎫 Tickets: Peak season tickets are CNY 10, combo tickets are CNY 20.
