Is there a place in Beijing where you can pick cherries by train or subway?
There is another secret: the cherries in the cherry picking garden are basically not sold in the market, and only when you come here can you enjoy this taste. Moreover, cherry trees can only be sprayed before germination and after fruit drop, and can be eaten after picking (people with sensitive constitution and gastrointestinal dysfunction should use it with caution).
Picking time:
From late May to June 20th. The temperature was relatively low this spring, so the ripening time of cherries was delayed by about a week. Sunlight and temperature are the best "ripening agents", except for this trembling. As long as the sun is shining, cherries will be all red!
Delivery price:
Cherry is generally a catty in 30 yuan, and some picking gardens have tickets (tickets include a certain number of picking), and some are directly weighed by catty.
The secret of stealing mouth:
Don't think that only red cherries are delicious. There is also a yellow cherry. When cooked, it is only yellow and red, and the taste is definitely not worse than that of the red variety.
Four seasons green fruit forest at the southern foot of Xiangshan Mountain: eating cherries professionally.
Signboard: This is the nearest sightseeing and picking orchard to the city center. Award-winning varieties such as "Hongyan" and "Hongguang" are the signature features of Sijiqing. The skin is bright red, the meat is thick and small, and the gravy is tender, smooth, sweet and juicy-no, the saliva is running down!
It is worth mentioning that Sijiqing is a first-class senior in cherry orchard, and he is well-known. Its cherry brand is very famous in Beijing because it tastes sweet. It is the largest cherry picking garden in Beijing, from which many cherry orchard in Beijing buy cherry saplings. Sijiqing is the "Big Cherry Demonstration Base" awarded by Beijing Fruit Tree Society. Cherry varieties such as Hongyan, Redmi and Hong Guang also won the "Gold Award" and "First Prize" in the whole city last year.
Features:
Exquisite little garden. Because it is too close to the city center, the area of Sijiqing Orchard is not large, but the whole garden is small and exquisite, surrounded by European protective railings, and there are more than 3,000 square meters of leisure areas. Many peony flowers were planted in the yard, and they were all in full bloom when we went. By the way, the toilet here is very beautiful in appearance, hidden under a tree, with rockeries and flowers in front, which makes the toilet very emotional.
When we arrived at Sijiqing Fruit Forest, it happened that there had just been a heavy rain, and all the trees in the garden were spotless. Just entering the garden gate, I feel that the garden is small and a little cramped, as if I can't see where the cherry is. Going further inside, it suddenly becomes clear, and the large cherry blossom forest is divided into pieces, which are densely covered with water.
I didn't have time to think about it, but I saw the red fruit hanging in the green leaves in the distance. I couldn't resist the temptation and plunged straight into the Woods. The cherry covered with rain is crystal clear, red and yellow, which is particularly festive in a thick green. Of course, the fruit that grows on the top of the tree ripens fastest, depending on whether you can reach it. Pick the red one (if there is a yellow variety, pick the one with red in the yellow), pick it with the handle, put it directly into your mouth, and enjoy it while anxiously picking another cherry. There are some half cherries left on the branches, which are the result of greedy birds stealing. Birds are the cleverest, and what they patronize is definitely the sweetest.
Eating in the Woods is so enjoyable that people waiting outside don't want to come out for a long time. After eating, I found that there are not only pavilions, wooden bridges, rocks, waterside pavilions and various flowers and trees in the garden, but also explanatory boards hanging on the trees to introduce the popular science knowledge of tree species.

During the picking festival, because of its great reputation and good location, the park limits the picking time of tourists to 2 hours per person. The price of cherries is one catty in 30 yuan.

It is said that group buying can get a 10% discount, and you can also order a park buffet. 60 yuan/person must be booked in advance, and only 30 or more people can be booked, and a deposit is required.

There is a long and wide grape corridor in the middle of the garden, which is thousands of meters long. The long corridor was covered with arched grape racks, and when we arrived, the grapes had climbed to half the height. You can see at a glance that this grape is old, with thick roots and vines, and there are seats under the shed. I think it will be cool in summer and there will be grapes to pick. Peony is also open on the roadside. It is said that the day before we arrived, flowers were in full bloom and the green lawn was paved in one day.
The cherry trees here are particularly dense and tall. The person in charge told us that most of these trees are over ten years old, which is the most prosperous age. There is still a small tree that has not yet borne fruit. It is said that cherries take four years to bear fruit, so it is not easy to eat a cherry.
