The tail end of autumn leaf viewing in Beijing this week, countdown! Here are 10 places to choose from

Autumn in Beijing came late and is leaving fast this year. In the past few days, the leaves have been falling rapidly, so there’s not much left to see. Based on recent conditions, you can still catch the tail end this week. Here are the places: (Each unit’s recommendation level is in order by number) 【Ginkgo Viewing】 1. Capital Hotel, currently the densest No problem this week, there might still be a chance on 11.18~19 The tree on the west side is still green, the one on the east side has just dropped leaves 2. Zhongshan Park The pavilion area has lost 70% of its leaves, almost bare The Ginkgo Avenue is still okay, need to check again on the weekend 3. Ditan Park Ginkgo Avenue is a bit barer than Zhongshan Park, but there is a large, very lush tree at the east gate. After the strong wind a few days ago, it has lost leaves 4. Diaoyutai Ginkgo Avenue 40~50% of leaves have fallen, more on the north section, the south section is better 5. Dongbuyaqiao Hutong The nearby ash tree is bare, but the ginkgo here is still quite strong If there’s no strong wind in the next few days, it can be enjoyed on the weekend 6. Agricultural Exhibition Center The ginkgo here is often the last to hold out in Beijing Next to the parking lots on both sides 7. Guozijian (Imperial College) 50% of leaves have fallen, still good for 2~3 days There is a super beautiful tree in the west side’s Jianchang Hutong, probably can last until the weekend 8. Yonghe Temple Also 50% fallen, still okay on weekdays No off-season here, the incense is very busy Probably not good on the weekend, too crowded, not recommended 【Red Leaf Viewing】 9. Purple Bamboo Park Highly recommended, it also has ginkgo, maple, dawn redwood, and other varieties. Although many leaves have fallen, the park is large with plenty of viewing space. One of the best choices this weekend 10. National Botanical Garden Ginkgo leaves have all fallen, not many maples left Dawn redwoods are also less dense, and the misting has stopped Still pretty good, a relatively better choice at the moment 11. Summer Palace Xiequ Garden is basically bare, many maple leaves have fallen at the Rear Lake, some ginkgo leaves have fallen on the West Shore, and the ancient willows are turning yellow 【Outskirts】 Mutianyu, Wucai Qianshan, Yanqi Lake, Pofengling have all lost leaves similarly, not recommended 【Ancient Ginkgo】 Tanzhe Temple: The imperial ginkgo tree is bare, but the paired king tree is okay Dajue Temple: 70% fallen, Lingguang Temple: 40% fallen, can visit this week. Nearby Dabeisi is bare, Wanshou Temple seems okay but uncertain As of this Monday, autumn in Beiping has basically come to an end! Most leaves will probably have fallen by this weekend.
