Longevity Hill, Sacred hill in Summer Palace complex, Beijing, China
The 60-meter stone elevation includes numerous pavilions and halls arranged in sequence along the north-south axis of the front section.
Emperor Qianlong renamed Wengshan Hill to Longevity Hill in 1752 during the Qing Dynasty, initiating the construction of gardens and buildings.
The Long Corridor extends 728 meters alongside the hill, containing 14,000 paintings that depict Chinese landscapes, birds, flowers, and historical events.
Visitors enter through the East Palace Gate and follow the Long Gallery to access different sections of buildings and viewing points.
The back section features a miniature recreation of the Tibetan Potala Palace, incorporating architectural elements from Lhasa into the Beijing landscape.
