3. Organic pear

Among the numerous pear gardens in Beijing's southwest Daxing District, Laohu Garden is the most famous. Pears here boast a larger size and good taste as well as a fresh appearance. These fruits are grown using organic fertilizers in order to maintain a premium taste. Besides pears, the garden also has towel gourds, also known as loofahs and often used as in the bathroom to scrub skin, peanuts and mint for visitors to pick.

Tips:

Braise chicken and flapjack are special, be sure to try them.

Pick up period: from mid August to end of September
