Bagou Mountain and Water Park: Perfect Venue to Unwind

The best things in life are free. Many people have taken for granted many things in their life or along their journey in life just because its free. Just like the BAGOU MOUNTAIN AND WATER PARK at HAIDIAN DISTRICT in BEIJING, it is open to the public for free.  

The welcoming entrance unlocks another piece of heaven
 on earth.

There are plenty of trees, ornamental plants, benches, man-made ponds and creatively constructed structures that make the place perfect venue to unwind... away from the busy life in the city and provides the necessary break from the challenges along our journey.

The 5,600 square meters park was completed in July 2010 to promote protection of the environment and to provide venue for leisure for the nearby residence and visitors. 

 The park is situated in between the HUOQIYING SUBWAY STATION and the BAGOU SUBWAY STATION, both along LINE 10.  The park serves as my shortcut way going to the nearest mall to our location, the WANLIU MALL near BAGOU SUBWAY STATION. The PARK is one subway station away from the GREAT RESOURCES (GR) MALL, the BIGGEST MALL in the WORLD, which is located near the CHANCHUNQIAO subway station also along LINE 10. 

Located about a kilometer away to the north of the PARK is another popular PARK, the SUMMER PALACE.

I was lucky when I visited the park today because I witnessed a painter working in her canvass with the beautiful view in the park as her inspiration.

There are a number of people in the park. Some are talking a walk. Others are jogging. Some are with their loved ones strolling, taking pictures just like me and spending the weekend together.

The serene environment reinforced by the lush green and tranquil water ignites creativity and paves a wonderful journey within us for reflection.

Every step is a bridge towards the unfolding of amazing discovery about our world, about existence!

The flowers take the center stage of attraction in the park. Many people are taking pictures at close range in appreciation for the perfect gifts of nature.

WISHING EVERYONE A WONDERFUL JOURNEY AHEAD...
