Mountain Peach Enchantment by Houxi River

In the serene embrace of Beijing’s Summer Palace, two sacred mountain peach trees grace the banks of Houxi River. Their delicate pink and white blossoms unfurl gently, with branches leaning naturally toward the water, casting dappled floral shadows upon the emerald waves. The nearby wooden bridge and ancient corridors complete this tranquil spring tableau. Far quieter than the bustling West Causeway, this hidden nook offers pure serenity. Strolling westward along the shore toward Suzhou Street, another graceful peach tree stands against Longevity Hill, like a treasured secret garden for locals. In the March breeze, this healing pink romance captivates the soul with timeless beauty.
