Beijing has numerous parks, gardens, and temples, and the Summer Palace was one of my favorites. I went there on a frosty and foggy morning in the middle of the week. There were quite a few people there, and like the other attractions I'd been to in Beijing, most of them were Chinese tourists or locals. I'm guessing the place gets packed in the spring and summer. The Summer Palace is built up around Kunming Lake and the hill overlooking the water is covered with paths, gardens, and temples. We had to keep moving to stay warm, but I could imagine this park being a wonderful place to spend the day when the weather is nice.
