Yuyuantan Park!

On the western side of Sanlihe in Haidian District, Yuyuantan Park is adjacent to Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, China Millennium Monument, CCTV Tower, and Military Museum of the Chinese People's Revolution, with an area of 1.4 million square meters.
Yuyuantan Park consists of three lakes, namely East, West and Bayi lakes, that serve as natural swimming pools in summer. On the northern bank of the West Lake grow over 3,000 sakura trees, forming the largest sukura garden in Beijing. Since 1988 Yuyuantan Park has held over 10 sakura shows. In spring, when sakura flowers are in full bloom, the people from all parts of Beijing come to the park to appreciate beautiful flowers.
