I found a classic route in the Summer Palace and want to share it with you!

When you visit Beijing, you must visit the Summer Palace. Here's a classic route: East Gate → Hall of Benevolence and Longevity The Hall of Benevolence and Longevity is solemn and majestic with its red walls and golden tiles. The royal family used to discuss politics here, and the sense of majesty is overwhelming. ↓ Hall of Happiness and Longevity The courtyard is full of flowers and plants, and the hall is elegant and luxurious, showing the royal family's exquisite taste. ↓ Long Corridor This is the longest corridor in the world, with exquisite paintings on the beams and rafters, depicting myths, history, and landscapes. The scenery changes as you walk. ↓ Kunming Lake The willows sway by the lake, and the water sparkles. Longevity Hill and the Tower of Buddhist Incense are reflected in the lake, like a beautiful painting. You can also rent a boat to cruise on the lake, which is very relaxing. ↓ Longevity Hill The hill is full of ancient trees, with pavilions and towers scattered among them. Climb to the Tower of Buddhist Incense, and you can see the whole garden. The Seventeen-Arch Bridge spans the lake, which is both stunning and charming. ↓ Suzhou Street → North Palace Gate Stroll along Suzhou Street and feel the charm of the ancient street. Finally, leave through the North Palace Gate and end this unforgettable trip to the Summer Palace. Follow this route, and you will see the beauty of the Summer Palace. Every brick and tile here is steeped in history, and every plant and tree is full of stories. As you walk out of the North Palace Gate, the breeze gently blows, and the past scenes still linger in your mind. This visit is a dialogue with history, which is intoxicating and unforgettable.
