Serenity Reflections: A Tour to Yuan Ming Yuan Park

Greetings, my beloved friends in the Hive universe!
I hope you're having a good day and finding joy in every day. I had an amazing weekend because I went to one of Beijing's most visited tourist attractions, Yuan Ming Yuan Park. I haven't been to a location as breathtaking as the Long Winter is not a good time for any visit to some natural spots like this. Going outside and exploring some places like these might be really challenging. So, in this coming warmer days my current objective is to visit the remaining unexplored locations in Beijing during the late spring and early summer, which is also the ideal time to see the city's naturally beautiful locations.

Yuanmingyuan Park, sometimes referred to as the Old Summer Palace, is more than just a park; it's a window into the past. Its expansive grounds and tasteful architecture create a cohesive whole that is striking to see. However, I think Yuanmingyuan's water features are what make the place a place of dreams and the reflection of everything surrounding the water bodies makes theis place a unique one.

A famous feature in Yuanmingyuan is the Round Bridge of almost ancient times, an elaborately designed bridge that is seen in many places all over China. A perfect circle is formed by its reflection in the water below, signifying eternity and wholeness.

The shimmering lakes and ponds dotting the park serve as sky mirrors, reflecting the constantly shifting hues of the clouds. Though the day in the winter is not so bright still it's a wonderland with these wonderful reflections.

The shimmering and dancing reflections make for an enthralling sight on a sunny day. A cloudy day makes the lake darker as it reflects the blue and grey sky above. As I have visited this area on a half sunny day with cloudy sky for most of the day. But I am going to comeback here in a proper sunny day in near future to enjoy the full version of this legendary beauty.

There is a system of lakes and canals in the isolated West Spring Garden. Here, the reflections are exceptionally brilliant, and the water is exceptionally pure. It's the ideal spot to unwind and take in the splendor of the natural world.
Past the Reflections

In addition to being stunning, Yuanmingyuan Park's water features are rich in history. The rulers of the Qing Dynasty enjoyed recreational pursuits, including boating and fishing in the lakes and ponds. They were also crucial to the intricate water filtering system of the palace.

I hope you like my visit to such an amazing place, my visit to the Yuan Ming Yuan Park. It was amazing to have visited an amazing place like this with the beauty of nature to enjoy and lose myself away from the whole busy life! If you have any queries, let me know in the comments, and I will try my best to answer them.

Thanks a lot for your time and attention, I will catch you at the next one.
Wish you a great day!

Dear my bro @tanzil2024 !

Since ancient times, the Chinese have believed that rivers, lakes, and mountains form the center of the universe.

Indeed, it is really an interesting point of view, that's why I have noticed they are much connected with mountains and their connection with mountains is very old. Still, they put big mountain stones in front of their institutes or made fake stone-like sculptures to indicate mountain-related symbols.

Thanks a lot for your kind information as always.
