After your local lunch, you will heading to Old Summer Palace. It was the emperor's private garden in the Qing dynasty and destroied in 1900's by the war. The vast majority of the remaining scenic spots were destroyed in the 1900s, but under the due protection of the ruins, a park has been established on the ruin site. So visitors can imagine the former grandeur of it from the crumbling walls and ruins. What's more, there is also an opportunity for visitors to view the complete picture of the garden in its 'heyday' in the exhibition hall.
