Early and Late Cherry Blossoms Bloom Together | Beijing Yuyuantan Park Cherry Blossom Guide

Walking through Yuyuantan Park, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom as promised. Pink weeping cherry blossoms cascade like waterfalls, their branches trembling in the breeze, and delicate petals brush past visitors' shoulders, creating an intoxicating atmosphere. The park uses cultivation techniques to break through blooming restrictions, allowing early and late cherry blossoms to bloom simultaneously. Single-petal early cherry blossoms are as pure as silk, while the multi-petal late cherry blossoms create cloud-like textures with their layered pink petals. This spectacular view of "early and late cherry blossoms blooming together" is a masterpiece of technology and nature in harmony. Walking along the western shore of the lake, you can see the CCTV Tower soaring into the clouds. The tower pierces through the clear sky, with cherry blossoms like clouds and mist below, while the lake water infinitely extends this blend of strength and grace, creating Beijing's most unique spring cityscape. Beyond the natural scenery, this year's cherry blossom season adds more cultural depth. Childhood fun meets flower seas: The newly opened Little Cherry Playground features cherry blossom-themed facilities like carousels and swing islands hidden among the flowers, where children's laughter intertwines with falling petals to create a lively spring melody. Chinese characters dance with flower shadows: In the "Yuhe Cherry Collection" exhibition hall, the "Time Typography" exhibition traces the evolution of Chinese character aesthetics. The co-branded font "Hanyi Yuyuan Luoshen" incorporates the gentleness of cherry blossoms into its strokes, extending cultural heritage through the flower season. Yuyuantan's cherry blossoms have transcended their botanical definition. They represent a collaboration between technology and nature, a carrier of urban memories, and a modern ritual of embracing spring. As the CCTV Tower's silhouette pierces through the veil of cherry blossoms, and as boat ripples shatter the reflections on the water, the park tells Beijing's spring fable through its blooming splendor. 🎀 Visitor's Guide 🚪【Less Crowded, Beautiful Entrance】 📍North Gate (900m walk from Exit D of Baidezi Station on Subway Line 9) - Cherry blossoms are visible right upon entering, especially the eye-catching pink weeping cherry blossoms. 📸【Recommended Photo Spots】: 1️⃣ Waterfront area north of Cherry Blossom Valley 📍Location: About 10 minutes' walk south from the North Gate along the main path to reach the waterfront area north of Cherry Blossom Valley.
