Botanical gardens Beijing

Autumn in the botanical garden on a sunday.

Sunday it was cleared up completely and we went to the botanical garden. Sunday, which meant, we were not the only ones who had the idea to go and see the autumn colours in the parks on the outskirts of Beijing. Missing out on the experience of being packed like sardines in the tram does not make the Beijing experience complete. Also we’ve found out by now how to get into the Forbidden city/Palace museum. You have to book in advance and it is already booked out for almost a week. We will get in eventually.We found our autumn colours and had a beautiful day. However the next day we found even better autumn colours nearby an unassuming little park opposite the hotel. Beijing is full of surprises, you only need to let it happen.
