[Attraction Introduction]
The Summer Palace, a royal garden from the Qing Dynasty in China, formerly known as Qingyi Garden, is located at No. 19, Xinjian Gongmen Road, Haidian District, western suburbs of Beijing. Built on the foundation of Kunming Lake and Longevity Hill, and modeled after the scenery of West Lake in Hangzhou, it incorporates design techniques and artistic conceptions from gardens in the Jiangnan region. It is a large natural landscape garden and one of the best-preserved imperial palaces and gardens, often referred to as a museum of royal gardens.
The Summer Palace is characterized by the perfect combination of natural landscapes surrounded by mountains and water and imperial palace architecture. The scenic spots are designed in real mountains and waters, which not only highlights the imperial grandeur, but also reflects the harmonious unity of gardens with mountains and water. It learns from nature but also surpasses nature, and cleverly integrates natural beauty with artificial carving.
