🏯 Summer Palace — Beijing’s Imperial Escape

#summervacay A step into the Summer Palace (颐和园) feels like stepping into a living painting. Nestled on the outskirts of Beijing, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is a vast tapestry of lakes, pagodas, gardens, and winding corridors. 🌿🏞️ ✨ Walk along the famous Long Corridor, painted with over 14,000 intricate artworks. ✨ Climb Longevity Hill for panoramic views of Kunming Lake, where dragon boats drift across sparkling waters. ✨ Don’t miss the majestic Marble Boat and the elegant Seventeen-Arch Bridge at sunset — it’s like time stands still. Whether you're here for Qing Dynasty history, architecture, or just peace in the chaos of Beijing, the Summer Palace will leave you awestruck. 🌸🚣♂️ #summerpalace #beijingheritage #imperialchina #hiddengemsbeijing #chinesearchitecture #historicbeijing #travelasia #kunminglake #unescoworldheritage #palaceescape
