Beijing 📍 Yiheyuan 3h itinerary that won't tire your legs, recommended for collection～

• Walking time from Tour in the Painting: 5 minutes.
• The iconic 41-meter-tall, eight-sided, three-story pavilion. It houses a gilded statue of the Thousand-Armed Guanyin, and the top offers sweeping views of the entire park.
• ⚠️ Note: A separate ¥10 ticket is required. For better value, consider a combined ticket (includes Suzhou Street, Dehe Garden, etc.).

5. Zhichun Pavilion

• Walking time from Buddhist Incense Pavilion: 18 minutes.
• Named after the line “Ducks are the first to know when the spring river warms,” it’s an ideal spot to admire the reflection of Wanshou Mountain and the lake-and-mountain scenery. The wide view here is perfect for classic photos capturing the Buddhist Incense Pavilion and Kunming Lake in the same frame.

6. Seventeen-Arch Bridge & Nanhu Island

• Walking time from Zhichun Pavilion: 15 minutes.
• The 150-meter-long bridge features 17 arches (symbolizing lunar phases) and 544 stone lions with unique poses. A must-see wonder: in the evening, the setting sun shines through the arches, creating the “Golden Light Through the Holes” spectacle.

7. Hanxu Hall

• Walking time from Seventeen-Arch Bridge: 1 minute.
• The main building on Nanhu Island, once where Empress Dowager Cixi reviewed the navy. Now a viewing platform overlooking the West Bank and Yuquan Mountain.

8. Exit via Xinjian Palace Gate

• Walking time from Hanxu Hall: 5 minutes.
• Convenient for departure: close to Xiyuan Metro Station, with buses 74/374/43 stopping directly outside. Easy to travel to nearby attractions like Yuanmingyuan, Tsinghua University, or Peking University.
