Chengde Mountain Resort and its outlying temples
Chengde Mountain Resort and its outlying temples, Imperial summer palace complex in Chengde, China.
The Mountain Resort spreads across 5.6 square kilometers, containing multiple palaces, gardens, lakes, and temples within a natural mountain setting.
Construction of the resort began in 1703 under Emperor Kangxi and continued for 89 years, serving as a strategic location for Qing dynasty rulers.
The resort includes 72 designated scenic spots and eight Tibetan Buddhist temples that reflect different architectural traditions from various regions of China.
The mountain location provides temperatures 4 to 5 degrees lower than Beijing, making summer visits between April and October most comfortable.
A stone pagoda from 1751 rises nine stories high with an octagonal shape, featuring glazed tiles and a golden spire atop the structure.
