The summer season is finally over in the region where I am currently living, and the temperature has dropped to under 30 degrees at the peak of the day when the sun seems to be burning at its maximum. Still, the temperature seems to be soothing and comfortable under the burning sun. The rainy days were so dominating this year in the northern region of the Beijing Municipal, but now cloudy days have also disappeared and nature seems to be calmer and at its final stage of preparation for the coming winter days from November.
This month and October are the most spectacular months for travelling around Beijing after the April-May season, when winter ends, and now the fall beauty will dominate with its own charm in nature. The leaves are losing their fresh greenness and passing their maturity level at the moment before they fall to the ground in the winter. This is the transition time of nature, and I have also started my outdoor travelling in the full swing after the break for the summer and the rainy season when he travelling is not so comfortable as it is now with the mild and comfortable weather.
As my of my weekend, I have a busy day with a lot of hiking and riding yeaterday. The day started for me after my launch as I have wathced a movie the previous night and slept for the whole morning though the day was a fantastic one afetr a long time with extremely clean sky and air quality was amazing with a long distance sight without any dust in the air. The sun was shining brightly but the temperature was not so high so I have taken my bicycle to reach at the location that is a beautiful scenic spot of the Qi He river. Previously I have explored some of the well-known points of the river already.
The location is just below the beautiful bridge connecting the two sides of the river though the width of the river is not so large but the views from the spot is so beautiful in the surrounding area. The mountains in the far distance is clearly visible from the river bottom through the pillars under the bridge as you can see in my photo. Also, the natural surroundings are it's peak with stunning view all around the area.
There is not too much water as the rainy seaason is over but still I found the flow of water on the stone on the river bed. I saw some people enjoying ther weekend with ther family, and children were trying to catch tiny fishes in the water with some handy nets. It was quite difficult for people to stay under such burnign sun as it was around 2 pm but they were enjoying sun bathe in my opinion.
Also, you can find the extremely greenliness in the area but some of the trees are having leaves that are going to turn into the yellow as the peak of the summer has gone. The grasses and the densely plants of the river bed are going to dry and only the trees will be alive through the coming winter and the river bed will be completely naked in the coming winter in this area. It is really a great feeling in exploring the nature and it's transformation.
I hope you like my photos of the beautiful Qi He River side area in this fantastic time of the year, when the air quality is so good with deep blue sky and the weather is also very comfortable. It is now noticeable that the season is in it's transition mode after the long summer season towards longest winter season in this area. It was an amazing experience to explore such a fantastic place like this, with the discovery of natural beauty, to enjoy my Beijing life! If you have any queries, let me know in the comments, and I will try my best to answer them.
Thanks a lot for your time and attention. I will catch up with you at the next one.
Wish you a great day!
