For newcomers to Beijing, is there any place in Beijing that locals like to visit and is worth visiting?

I recommend you to the Summer Palace. Most people who travel to Beijing go during the day. At night, most of them are locals. Looking at the recent weather, you should see good flaming clouds at night. There are mountains, water, clouds and bridges; Have color and taste; No tall buildings, no cables. Take a quiet walk, or stay by the lake and let your mind wander. You'll like it here. There's no noise during the day. I have been there more than one hundred times in recent years.

It is recommended to enter from the newly-built Gongmen. The entrance is the 17-hole bridge head, facing the sunset in Xishan, and the water and sky are the same. Note: tickets are not sold if you go at night. You need an annual ticket. Or: take a long gun and a short gun, tell the old man at the door and go in and take a photo. As long as it is before 7 o'clock, you will usually be allowed in.

From the newly built palace gate, you can see the sky, water, mountains, islands and pavilions in the north.
