part 5 of the chink photos




three pix taken at the summer palace...it was built on the orders of the empress dowager cixi during the Qing era as a refuge for her and her courtiers...to escape the heat and oppression of beijing in high summer...huge place albeit not as big as the forbidden city of course...but still very much a leg-breaker :))
