Fragrant Hills
Why do these wooded hills turn red each autumn
Nature · 🇨🇳 Beijing · one place, one stop
+35 ptsThe red comes from the park’s autumn foliage, which spreads across its wooded slopes and makes the hills a Beijing landmark each fall. Paths climb through dense trees, stone steps and Chinese-style pavilions, while higher ground opens views across the western side of the city. The colour belongs to the hillsides themselves, not to one garden display.
