Chengde

    Located in the northeast of Hebei Province, 230 km from Beijing, Chengde is a famous tourist city in China. Surrounded by mountains and rivers, exuberant forests and trees with beautiful scenery, it is an ideal place for holidays and vacations.

    In this charming place, natural scenery and artificial scenes mingle together, with Mountain Resort and Eight Outer Temples as the center, like "ripples" spreading to all directions.

The Mountain Resort of Chengde

    As one of China's ten top scenic spots and the world's extant largest imperial garden where emperors of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) used to spend their summer vacations and engaged in political activities, the resort is also known as the temporary palace away from the capital. 

The Eight Outer Temples

    The Eight Outer Temples were built in groups on the eastern and northern slopes of the Mountain Resort. The glistening gilded tiles and grandiose construction show a harmonic combination of many architectural styles.
