Gingko trees in Peking University

Best time to appreciate:Late October to mid-and-late November

Recommend index:★ ★ ★

Comment: The Ginkgo on campuses are always beautiful because "Ginkgo trees witnesses the essence of youth".

Most Ginkgo trees are scattered at the campus of Peking University, not in rows or scales. There are two old, giant Ginkgo trees which epitomize the autumn scenery at Peking University. At the north of the library also stand several years-old Gingko trees. The Ginkgo trees witness the diligent students studying or loving couples sweet talking under them. Accordingly, the trees will also be part of the students’ memory.

Transportation:Take bus 718 and 332 and get off at Peking University West Gate station.

Tip:Cars are not allowed to drive inside. The parking lots around the campus are in short demand.
