The Summer Palace is an impressive and beautiful UNESCO World Heritage Site. Located in the north-west of Beijing, China, this was a rural palace where the royal family could escape during the hot summer months. Originally founded in the 14th century, much of what we can see today was constructed in the 19th century, and was the legacy of Empress Dowager Cixi, one of the last Qing emperors. It's a large and fascinating place, so let's check it out!
