π§βπ§βπ§βπ§ Navigating the crowds of Beijing during the May Day holiday was a daunting task, yet amidst the hustle and bustle, I stumbled upon a serene and unexpected oasis – Beixiaohe Park. π
π Conveniently located near the Donghuqu station on Line 14, exiting through the D entrance, this park offers a refreshing escape from the bustling city without the need for reservations or ticket purchases. π« The park is open daily from 6:00 to 22:00, providing ample time to explore and unwind.
π³ After a hectic afternoon wandering through the Central Academy of Fine Arts’ graduation exhibition, I was pleasantly surprised by the tranquility of Beixiaohe Park. The low density of visitors allowed for a sense of comfort and relaxation, as if I were absorbing the essence of nature simply by sitting quietly on a bench. π I observed grandparents reading their books and mothers and daughters playing frisbee, while the children’s play area and chess center were conveniently located nearby, catering to both young and old alike.
βΊοΈ It’s worth noting that camping is not permitted in the park, nor is spreading out a picnic blanket or lying directly on the grass for photos. Security personnel will kindly advise against such activities. However, I observed families setting up small tents on the adjacent pavement, taking up minimal space and posing no issues. π· For those interested in photography, I highly recommend brushing up on your posing skills as this park is truly a photographer’s dream.
