北海公园
Beihai Park
Beihai Park is a royal garden with the lake as its core, located on the west side of Jingshan Mountain. Qionghua Island and the White Pagoda form the most recognizable landscape, while the painted corridors, temples, stacked stones and gardens on the north bank are suitable for leisurely exploration on foot. The water bodies, islands and borrowed scenery in the garden have been constructed through the ages to present a complete classical garden space.

Beihai North Station is suitable for entering the north shore area; if you are traveling with Jingshan or the Forbidden City, it is more natural to organize the route from the south gate or east gate.
Practical notes
The park gate and the park within the park may have different opening hours, and some internal attractions are closed on Mondays. You should first decide whether you want to focus on walking on the lakeshore, visiting ancient buildings or taking a cruise, and then choose the entrance and ticket type.
