based on 105 reviewsThe Beijing Grand View Garden is located in the southwest corner within Beijing's second ring road. It is a garden built based on the descriptions in the classic novel "Dream of the Red Chamber" and served as a filming location for the 1987 CCTV adaptation of the series. Visitors can explore scenes from the show, learn about the Red Chamber culture, and enjoy the garden's beautiful scenery.
The Beijing Grand View Garden is not very large, with both its length and width being approx. 300 m. Visitors can explore the garden in approx. 2-3 hours. The garden's layout is very elegant, resembling the style of a wealthy Jiangnan courtyard, with pavilions, terraces, towers, small bridges, and flowing water. Strolling through it is refreshing and delightful. Visitors can also pay to dress in ancient costumes for photos, which is quite fun.
In addition to sightseeing and cultural experiences, Beijing Grand View Garden hosts numerous events annually. The grand Red Temple Fair from the first to the fifth day of the Chinese New Year features daily themed performances such as the imperial consort's homecoming, the wedding of Baoyu and Daiyu, and Grandma Jia's birthday celebration. Folk arts like sugar figurines and Peking opera masks are also showcased, creating a vibrant atmosphere.

Show More ReviewsIt's a Dream of the Red Chamber themed attraction with NPC activities, but those unfamiliar with the novel might find it less appealing. Located near the Second Ring Road, it's not crowded, so it's worth a visit; two hours there is quite relaxing.
