The garden is located on the northwestern outskirts of the Chinese capital between Xiangshan (Fragrant Hills) Park and Jade Spring Mountain in the Western Hills.

What I like about the Beijing Botanical Garden is that there are not many visitors there on a typical weekday. Even in the weekend, the park is relatively quiet as compared with other parks in Beijing.

Established in 1955, the Beijing Botanical Garden covers a large area of 564,000 square meters.

The park includes a dozen exhibition districts and halls, including the tree garden, a perennial bulb garden, a rose garden, a peony garden, a traditional Chinese medicinal herb garden, a wild fruit resources district, an environment protection plant district, a water and vine plant district, an endangered plant district, and exhibition greenhouses for tropical and subtropical plants.

I've never heard of this garden, it looks really great. It looks big too. Like a place you could go for a long walk, which is perfect. Maybe have lunch too. Very peaceful. We can forget the troubles of the world and our personal troubles in a garden like this.
