Visit the Summer Palace on the first day of the Lunar New Year and start a royal New Year journey!

The Summer Palace is the perfect place to visit on the first day of the Lunar New Year! 🏯【Royal Garden】 The Summer Palace is the best-preserved royal garden in China, and it has a unique charm on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Stroll along the Long Corridor and admire the exquisite paintings, as if you have traveled back in time to the New Year celebrations of the royal family. 🌸【Festive Atmosphere】 During the Spring Festival, the Summer Palace is decorated with many festive decorations, such as red lanterns, couplets, and the Chinese character "Fu" (meaning "good fortune"). The festive atmosphere is everywhere. There are also various folk performances, such as dragon and lion dances and Peking opera performances, which are very atmospheric! 📸【Photo Opportunities】 This is definitely a great place to take photos! Whether it's the Tower of Buddhist Incense on Longevity Hill or the Seventeen-Arch Bridge on Kunming Lake, they all make beautiful backgrounds. Put on a Hanfu or cheongsam and take a time-traveling photo shoot, and you'll definitely get some great shots! 🍽️【Royal Cuisine】 There are many specialty restaurants near the Summer Palace where you can taste modified versions of royal cuisine, such as palace pastries and roast duck. Every bite is full of royal flavor. 📅【Best Time to Visit】 It is recommended to enter the park early in the morning to avoid peak hours, so you can better enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Summer Palace and see the Tower of Buddhist Incense at sunrise, which is stunning! 🚌【Transportation Guide】 Located in Haidian District, Beijing, it is easily accessible by subway or bus.
