The Summer Palace, a royal garden during the Qing Dynasty in China, formerly known as the Qingyi Garden, is located at 19 Xinjian Gongmen Road, Haidian District, western suburbs of Beijing. It was first built in 1750 during the 15th year of the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty and in the 10th year of the Xianfeng reign

It was burned down by the Anglo French coalition in 1860. In the twelfth year of the Guangxu reign (1886), the Qing court misappropriated naval funds and other funds to begin reconstruction, and two years later adopted its current name as the retirement home for Empress Dowager Cixi. In 1900, it was destroyed by the Eight Nation Alliance in the 26th year of the Guangxu reign, and was repaired in 1902 in the 28th year of the Guangxu reign.

The Summer Palace is a large natural landscape garden built using Kunming Lake and Wanshou Mountain as its base sites, based on the scenery of West Lake in Hangzhou, and drawing on some design techniques and artistic conception of Jiangnan gardens. It is also the most well preserved royal palace garden and is known as the Royal Garden Museum. The entire park covers an area of 3.009 square kilometers, with water surface accounting for about three-quarters. It is composed of Wanshou Mountain and Kunming Lake. There are over 100 scenic buildings and more than 20 courtyards of various sizes distributed in the park, with over 3000 ancient buildings and a total area of nearly 70000 square meters. There are over 1600 ancient and famous trees.
