The upcoming Beijing Peach Blossom Festival will be held in late March at Beijing Botanical Garden. This year, park goers can expect to see some early blooms. 
With more than 70 peach trees varieties, the Beijing Botanical Garden is the largest peach blossom garden in the capital. It's no surprise that many in the city head over to the colorful garden to enjoy its red and white flowers.
Measuring 56 hectares, the sprawling Botanical Garden is located on the outskirts of northwest Beijing. Its location makes it a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of the capital. And this year, park goers are in for a treat - as the flowers have bloomed much earlier. Residents have expressed their surprise and delight at seeing the trees in bloom so early this year.
The Festival has been held annually at the Botanical Garden since 1989, and has been delighting fans ever since.
