Mountain climbing

Baihua Mountain has a unique landscape and pleasant climate, surrounded by mountains, babbling brooks and suffusing mists. Abundant trees, exotic flowers and rare animals have made the mountain a natural garden. The mountain looks its best in October.

Favorable geography and rich forest resources have made Mentougou the best place in Beijing for red autumn leaves. Tourists can enjoy magnificent autumn scenery in the district.

Local red autumn leaves show up first and last the longest. Local mountains turn red from late September to early and mid November. In the Baihua Mountain forest park, visitors can see not only the red maple leaves but also yellow gingko and other colors from red to yellow. The blue sky and red leaves are a feast of color to the eyes. Seeing rocks and maple leaves along the mountain road is a treat.
