Autumn in Beijing, with more than leaves on the agenda
In Beijing, autumn can make a weekend feel too short. Red leaves cover the slopes of Fragrant Hills, while golden ginkgo trees stand against the roofs and courtyards of the city’s historic buildings. A walk through town becomes a reason to stop, look up and take the long way home.
Beyond the foliage, beer festivals, art exhibitions and music festivals fill the calendar. An exhibition celebrating Labubu’s 10th anniversary adds another stop for fans of the character. On Xiaohongshu (RedNote), users call autumn the best time to visit Beijing. The harder question may be how to fit everything into a weekend.
Beijing’s appeal lies in that mix: centuries of history alongside a youthful cultural scene, giving travelers reasons to visit and reasons to return.
