From July 3 to August 31, many historic courtyards and other attractions in Beijing's municipal parks are scheduled to remain open to visitors on Mondays. These include the Tower of Buddhist Incense (佛香阁) and the Hall of Dispelling Clouds (排云殿) in the Summer Palace, the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests (祈年殿) in the Temple of Heaven Park, Yong'an Temple (永安寺) in Beihai Park, the Beijing Fragrant Hills Revolutionary Memorial Site (北京香山革命纪念地旧址) in the Fragrant Hills Park, the Exhibition Greenhouse (展览温室) of the China National Botanical Garden (North Garden), and Cibei Nunnery (慈悲庵) in Taoranting Park.

The Museum of Chinese Gardens and Landscape Architecture and the Luxian Ancient City Archaeological Site Museum will also remain open on Mondays, with closures shifted to Tuesdays to stagger the flow of visitors due to large crowds. Boat rentals, cultural souvenir retail spaces, and exhibition halls across the parks will also offer extended hours based on visitor volumes. For specific opening arrangements and service hours, please refer to the official announcements from these parks and museums.
