but this time i was stuck over there for atlest five minutes! Buses just kept coming and coming... Luckily i have found a solution to my problem, if you stick with a Chinese person you will eventually get across the street safely! Luckily after all of that there was pineapple waiting on the other side!! :D
The Summer Palace was very beautiful and different than everywhere else, they were given a lot more freedom while designing it so its not as structured. The whole palace is built around a lake so its a beautiful setting. This is a picture of me heading into the Summer Palace, I am not sure if they thought we were funny or annoyed by us! But I'm pretty sure one of the guards cracked a smile after we took the pictures :)
We spent most of the exploring around, there was so much to see and it was all beautiful! They had displays of ancient clothing, furniture and other artifacts. Our goal was to get to the very top of a hill to see the main temple, it was amazing!! It was quite the climb to the top, so its crazy to think that emperors walked all around the lake and to the top of the hill all the time! Getting to the top and seeing the temple was worth it and the best part of all was the view over all the palace.
Around the different places we have been in China they have photo booths set up- they dress you up in a gown and headress and take your picture, well Andrea and I have wanted to the whole time we have been here, so we thought no better place than the Summer Palace!! :) So here are our beautiful photos!!
I really liked the Summer Palace, most of it was just beautiful to see, so it is difficult to explain and more fun to see pictures!
