The Summer Palace
Constructed in the Jin Dynasty (1115-1234), during the succeeding reign of feudal emperors; it was extended continuously. By the time of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), it had become a luxurious royal garden providing royal families with rest and entertainment. Situated in the western outskirts of Haidian District, the Summer Palace is 15 kilometers from central Beijing.
