We went on a dragon boat ride on Kunming Lake. The boat took us to a temple. It was very crowded. It was fun riding on the boat.
We climbed up lots of stairs. These stairs took us to a tower on a hill. Most of the buildings were built in the 1700s but were burned in a war. An emperor rebuilt them in the late 1800s.
The Summer Palace isn't just one building its lots and lots of buildings. Here is one example. There was a really long walk way that connected many of the buildings called the Long Corridor. There were lots of paintings on the walls.
We had a great time! Please leave comments.
I love reading about China, Alex! You are having some incredible adventures.
ReplyDeleteHi, Alex, this is Max. I hope I can visit you in China sometime. Maybe you can help me convince my mom! Maybe you could come visit us sometime. That would be great!
