Chengde Mountain Resort Chengde
Mountain Resort is one of China's leading scenic spots and the world's
largest imperial garden, which served as the summer resort for emperors
of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). Situated 256 kilometers northeast of
Beijing, Chengde is surrounded with mountains. Built in the 42nd year of
Emperor Kangxi's reign (1703), the Resort was the former out palace of
Qing Dynasty emperors. The palace structures along with the adjacent
temples demonstrate the different styles of architecture by various
Chinese nationalities. The mountain resort possesses scenery of both
north and south China. For their unique shapes and beauty of color, the
Eight Outer Temples represent the different features of the culture of
the Han, Tibet, Mongolia and other minority nationalities. In 1994
Chengde Mountain Resort was listed as UNESCO’s
World
Heritage site.
