Yuanmingyuan Park, Beijing.

Yuanmingyuan Park Yuanmingyuan Park is made up of three gardens: Yuanmingyuan, Changchunyuan, and Qichunyuan. Together, they are known as the Three Gardens of Yuanmingyuan, and are a model of imperial gardens. Western Mansions: The only place in Yuanmingyuan Park with ruins, the Western Mansions were built by Emperor Qianlong in the north of Changchunyuan. All other buildings in the Three Gardens of Yuanmingyuan have been destroyed, leaving only the vegetation of the past century. Dashuifa: The iconic ruins of Yuanmingyuan Park, originally built by Emperor Qianlong as a residence for Consort Xiang. There is a fountain in front of the building, but now only the ruins and a water pit remain. Guanshuifa: Located opposite Dashuifa, this was the imperial seat from which Emperor Qianlong watched the fountain. The stone screen on the high platform is still intact, and is engraved with Western artillery. Haiyantang: The famous fountain with the twelve zodiac animal heads is located at the front of the building, while a large reservoir for the Western Mansions is located at the back. Xieqiqu: The first European-style building built by Emperor Qianlong in Yuanmingyuan Park, with a fountain at the entrance. Yuanyingguan: A place of worship built by Emperor Qianlong for Consort Xiang. Huanghuazhen: The only reconstructed landscape. Don't go in lightly, as it takes at least half an hour to get out. Changchunyuan: A masterpiece of imperial garden planning by Emperor Qianlong after he took over Yuanmingyuan Park, and a retirement garden built for himself. Panorama Model of Yuanmingyuan Park: Located near East Gate 3, this model shows a panoramic view of Yuanmingyuan Park at its peak, with audio commentary. However, the model is old and the lighting effects are average, so it's better to buy a full ticket and explore the park!

The Temple of Heaven Park is a place that tells the story of ancient people's communication with the heavens and the earth, blending ancient Chinese ritual culture and philosophical wisdom. The entire layout of the park is meticulous and harmonious. The Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, with its circular structure symbolizing the roundness of the heavens, is grand and poetic. The layered stone steps of the Circular Mound Altar seem to connect the heavens and the earth, inspiring awe. Walking along the cypress-lined paths, occasionally hearing the wind and birdsong, feels like being in a dialogue that transcends time and space. The ingenious design of the Echo Wall showcases the wisdom of ancient craftsmen, while the Three Echo Stones add a touch of liveliness and fun to the solemnity. Throughout the changing seasons, the scenery of the Temple of Heaven is always charming, whether it is filled with blooming flowers or covered in white snow, making it a place that one never tires of visiting. It is a serene place steeped in traditional culture and a spiritual retreat that allows one to re-examine the relationship between nature and life.
