The Hill of Perspective: Beijing’s Hidden Gem

Rising just north of the Forbidden City, Jingshan Park offers one of the most breathtaking panoramic views of Beijing. Once an imperial garden, this artificial hill was built during the Ming Dynasty using soil excavated from the palace moats. Its five peaks, crowned with elegant pavilions, were designed for emperors to admire their capital and seek tranquility. The Wanchun Pavilion, perched at the highest point, provides an unrivaled vista of the Forbidden City’s golden rooftops, stretching endlessly toward the horizon. Beyond its historical significance, the park is a haven for locals practicing tai chi, singing opera, or simply enjoying the serenity of ancient cypress trees. A place where history, nature, and tradition blend seamlessly into the rhythm of Beijing. #cityplaybook
