Chengde Summer Resort
Situated 250 kilometers to the northeast of Beijing, Chengde is a tourist city with graceful scenery, a wealth of scenic spots and places of cultural interest. Chengde Summer Resort is in the north of Chengde downtown, which is famed for its reputation as the private resort for Chinese emperors during summer. Firstly built in the 42nd year (1703year) of Emperor Kangxi’s reign of the Qing Dynasty, the resort coasted about 90 years to construct, covering 564 hectares. The resort is divided into two sections: the palace area and the scenic area, the latter one containing Lake Zone, Plain Zone and Mountain Zone.

The palaces are three complexes. The main palaces arranged symmetrically on an axial line, with three gateways, which is the palace where all important ceremonies were held during the Qing emperors’ stayed in the summer resort. The Back Imperial Bedroom is the palace for emperors lived and dealt with state affairs. Yunshan Shengdi Tower is the palace for emperors and empresses appreciating the beautiful scenery.
Lake Zone

A cruise on the lakes brings the visitor in contact with the scenery of this world of water.
