Beijing Botanical Garden Cherry Valley

Beijing Botanical Garden Cherry Valley

Cherry Valley is located northwest of the Reclining Buddha Temple and is also known as the Botanical Garden Cherry Valley. It is a natural stream valley within the garden. During the Ming Dynasty, cherry trees were planted along both sides of the mountain stream, hence the name Cherry Valley. Nowadays, in addition to cherry trees, there are also apricot, peach, winter jasmine, crabapple, peony, and peony flowers that bloom in sequence according to the season. With the murmuring stream, it resembles a paradise beyond the mundane world.

The terrain of Cherry Valley is distributed in a dendritic pattern, with no severe cold in winter and no intense heat in summer, and the air is humid. The valley is home to a wide variety of flora and fauna, contributing to its rich natural charm. Admire the rugged beauty of the "Pine on Rock," listen to the legendary tales of the "Magic Jade," and pause at the "Water Source" to experience the poetic mood of "reaching the end of the water, then sitting and watching the clouds rise." The Water Source landscape of Cherry Valley was once famous for a mountain spring that gushed year-round in all four seasons. The spring water is clear and sweet, not inferior to Hangzhou's Tiger Running Spring. The valley’s Clear Spring Tea House offers seating where visitors can stop to taste the delicious Cherry Spring water — a great spot for weekend leisure.
