摘要

RESIDENTS in downtown Beijing got to experience nature on their doorsteps last July when the first urban forest park in Dongcheng District was opened to the public. The park sits to the northwest of Beijing Workers’ Stadium, a popular venue for sports fixtures and pop concerts. Entering the park feels like stepping out of a concrete jungle into the fresh embrace of nature. It boasts towering Chinese scholar trees and junipers as well as a proliferation of wild blossoms attracting butterflies and bees.
