The Summer Palace in Beijing is a masterful embodiment of traditional Chinese garden design, blending numerous halls, pavilions, and scenic features into a grand imperial garden conceived by Qing emperor Qianlong between 1750 and 1764. Originally named the Garden of Clear Ripples, this vast estate incorporates Kunming Lake, which was once a reservoir for the Yuan dynasty’s capital, and Longevity Hill, serving as the foundational framework for its layout. The Summer Palace harmoniously integrates various functions—political, administrative, residential, spiritual, and recreational—within its expansive landscape of lakes and mountains. This meticulous design follows the Chinese philosophical principle of achieving balance between human creations and the natural environment. The palace’s expansive grounds are dotted with elaborate structures such as the Marble Boat, the Long Corridor, and the Tower of Buddhist Incense, each contributing to a breathtaking panorama that reflects both the grandeur of imperial China and the tranquil beauty of its natural surroundings.
Then, we continue our journey by boat, heading directly into the Summer Palace. Once there, we change boats to cruise on Kunming Lake, offering a serene perspective of this historic site. After the boat ride, we embark on a guided walk, either mounting the hill or taking a scenic side walk around it. The tour concludes at the North Gate of the Summer Palace, where you can admire the beautiful landscapes and architectural marvels of this imperial garden.
