The Summer Palace (Yiheyuan) is a palace in Beijing, China.
The initial construction of the Summer Palace began in 1750. Artisans reproduced the garden architecture styles of various palaces in China.
It was ransacked, together with the Old Summer Palace in 1860 by French and British troops during the second Opium War. In 1888, Empress Dowager Cixi diverted 30 million teals of silver, said to be originally designated for the Chinese navy, into the reconstruction and enlargement of the Summer Palace.

Morning: Tiananmen Square Forbidden City

The Forbidden City was the ritual center of two important Chinese dynasties, the Ming and the Qing dynasties, and has been one of China's most revered and protected monuments since the State Council declared it in 1961. It has also been made a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1987, and is now known as the Palace Museum, and hailed as a comprehensive Chinese museum.The Forbidden City has a rich cultural past and remains an important symbol for the Chinese people. The image of the entrance, Tiananmen, still appears on the seal of the People's Republic of China, and the Museum remains one of the most popular tourist sites both in China and the World.
The Palace Museum ceased to be a center of Royalty after the republican revolution of 1914. It was only the declaration of "Articles of Favorable Treatment of the Qing House" that allowed the final Qing Emperor, Puyi, to continue to live in the Inner Court of the museum after his abdication. If this had not been in place, it is likely that the whole museum would have been sequested by the Nationalist government. Whilst many cultural relics from other Chinese palaces such as Rehe (modern Chengde) and Mukden (modern Shenyang) were moved to the Outer Court of the Forbidden City for display in the historical museum, Puyi was moving many of his own relics out of the forbidden city to pawn under the pretext of gifts for courtiers or getting the objects repaired

Morning: Hutong Tour(two pax for one pedicab)

The Temple of Heaven was built in 1420 AD and everything about its construction, both in the overall architectural plan and in the details of each individual building, was symbolic of the relationship between heaven and earth and both their relationships to the Emperors, which was the very heart of Chinese cosmology and spiritualism. It was used for important religious ceremonies and houses some of the finest ancient buildings and gardens in China.
Widely considered the finest work of architecture in China, its accomplishment is not the striking beauty of its buildings, but rather the sum of its parts. The importance of the Temple of Heaven to the ancient Chinese, and the symbolic power it wielded cannot be overestimated. Signs of its imitation can be seen all over the Far East. Confirmation, if any were needed, of its supreme cultural and architectural impact.
