Fragrant Hills Park
Just 25km (15.5 miles) from Beijing’s city centre, Fragrant Hills Park (xiangshan gongyuan, Chinese: 香山公园） crowds of visitors everyday, particularly in autumn, and for good reason. This is when all the leaves on the mountain’s smoke trees turn a wonderful shade of red. Xiangshan is also a lovely place to visit during the summer months since, thanks to its elevation and leaf coverage, it offers cooler temperatures and provides a refreshing reprieve from the sizzling city.
