Beijing Botanical Gardens
The Beijing Botanical Garden, located in Beijing, China, was established in 1955. It is the largest botanical garden in northern China. Eleven themed gardens make up this 400 hectare complex. These include a tree garden, rose garden, peony garden, and traditional medicinal herb garden. The gardens contain over 6,000 species of plants.
In addition to all of the beautiful plants, the garden contains several historic sites, including the Cao Xueqin Memorial Hall, Tomb of Liang Qichao, and the Temple of the Sleeping Buddha.
With its ponds, elegant bridges, and gorgeous flowers, the Beijing Botanical Garden is a place of great beauty.
Admission is free, and the garden is open daily from 7 AM to 5 PM.
