South Hall Park

South Hall Park

South Hall Park is located inside Dongzhimen. During the Ming Dynasty, this area was a copper smelting factory. In 1956, the Municipal Planning Bureau approved the site for green space development and named it South Hall Park based on the local residents' common name. The park faces the Russian Embassy to the north, neighbors the famous Tongjiao Temple to the west, connects to Beizhong Street to the east, and borders Xiyangguan Hutong to the south. Covering an area of 2.62 hectares, the park was first built in 1956 and officially opened to the public on October 1, 1992. It is a modern garden known for its beautiful environment and pleasant scenery. The overall layout of South Hall Park is predominantly naturalistic, with an emphasis on landscaping through plants. It features several exquisite and elegant garden landscapes, such as the Hosta Garden area, the Wisteria Arbor area, and the Hexagonal Pavilion area. To meet visitors’ needs, it also offers a variety of recreational activities, including a children’s playground, an open-air dance floor, and a fitness area for adults, catering to the rest, entertainment, fitness, and sightseeing needs of visitors of different age groups.
