Chengde Mountain Resort
Chengde Mountain Resort in Hebei province.

Chengde's Mountain Resort was an important part of imperial life during the Qing Dynasty. Built over 89 years during the most prosperous decades of the dynasty, the resort combines 72 scenic sites and is the world's largest classic imperial garden. It is composed of a palace area, greens, lakes and hills. It has amassed both the delicate plants of southern gardens and the grandeur of north China's parks, thus "collecting all beautiful scenes under the sky in one garden".
