Must visit place in Beijing. It’s magnificent. It’s so peaceful and nice, especially during afternoon and sunset. You can also hire a boat ride. Highly recommended. If I have to choose one place in China to go back again, it will be summer palace.
A beautiful garden in Beijing. A lovely place to be for spending a leisurely afternoon. You can walk up the hill and make a circular loop around the Buddhist temple. Walk back along the lake visiting the world’s longest corridor. The views are really nice. The architecture and history behind the buildings makes it a place worth visiting while in Beijing.
The Summer Palace is an absolutely enchanting place! From the moment you step onto the grounds, you're transported to a world of stunning traditional Chinese architecture, serene lakes, and beautifully landscaped gardens. Wandering through the pavilions, bridges, and walkways feels like stepping into a painting. The sheer scale and artistry of the Summer Palace are breathtaking, and there's something beautiful to discover around every corner. Whether you're strolling along the shores of Kunming Lake, admiring the Long Corridor's intricate artwork, or marveling at the Marble Boat, there's a sense of history and tranquility that's truly special. Allow plenty of time to explore everything this magnificent imperial garden has to offer. It's a perfect escape from the city and a testament to China's rich cultural heritage. A definite must-see in Beijing!
A must-visit place when you visit Beijing. One of UNESCO World Heritage site. The Summer Palace is an incredible destination. Many of beautiful structures, longest corridor with artworks of various stories and cultural reference. The lake, the largest historical man-made lake i have ever seen. The excavated soil from the lake has been used to build the mountain for the temple.
My favourite place to visit u can spend there about 5h and see the beautiful architecture different part of each garden it’s beautiful the longest corridor is there and if you are good u can walk up stairs to the top of the highest building for the view, see a beautiful garden and lake , we both a ticket online for this but was no waiting in line to buy ticket locally there too. Highly recommended. Must seen place .
