Five fluffy cygnets have become the stars of Beijing’s waterways, spotted paddling alongside their parents in a river near the historic Old Summer Palace. 🏯 The tiny newcomers, soaking up the early spring sunshine, are already learning survival skills as they curiously dip and dive in their natural playground.
Local ecologists say the swan family’s arrival highlights a bigger trend: renewed environmental efforts in the Chinese mainland are revitalizing ecosystems. From cleaner rivers to greener spaces, these changes are attracting diverse wildlife back to urban areas—proving that conservation can coexist with city life. 🌿
\"It’s like a nature documentary unfolding in our backyard,\" shared a Beijing resident who frequents the area. For young travelers and eco-enthusiasts, this spring spectacle offers a serene escape and a reminder of nature’s resilience. 📸
