What travelers say:

The Summer Palace is a royal garden in the Qing Dynasty. It was formerly known as Qinghui Garden and adjacent to the Yuanmingyuan. It is a large landscape garden built from Hangzhou West Lake as a model and draws on the design techniques of Jiangnan gardens. I remember the history book that in order to repair the Summer Palace, the Queen Cixi used the Beiyang Water Division's military expenditure of 30 million silver, which directly led to the defeat of the Jiawu War. However, there is a saying that the landscape of the Summer Palace is still exquisite and elegant, and extraordinary.
