Summer Palace Visit





























Today we visited the Summer Palace where the Emperor and Empress enjoyed their summers for eight centuries. Beautiful temples and a 728 yard long corridor which is a covered walkway with beautiful paintings on every surface.

After scaling Longevity Hill we took a Dragon Boat ride on Kumming lake and watched Chinese women dancers in a covered pavilion at the lake side by the Seventeen Arch Bridge

Enjoy the photos!
