Picture of the Day - Suzhou Street



In 1762, after returning from touring the Jiangnan region, the Qianlong Emperor ordered the construction of a shopping street resembling Shantang Street in Suzhou at the Summer Palace in Beijing. The Summer Palace is a vast ensemble of lakes, gardens and palaces in Beijing, China. It is a popular tourist destination in Beijing. This picture is just a small part that shows the beauty of the Summer Palace.
