“Beautiful Grounds, Interesting Attraction”
Our tour guide escorted us to the Summer Palace and provided us an excellent guided tour of the grounds. Without a guide it would have been difficult to understand what the history of the site was or what the various buildings were, there were very few signs explaining things and I am unsure whether any kind of recorded audio tour was available. We spent about two hours here and it would have been easy to spend one to two more if we didn't have a packed itinerary.
I do recommend a visit, although with the round trip drive time to and from Beijing it will take up half a day. If your time is very short in Beijing, I would not make this a top priority.

The Temple of Heaven is a very impressive sight with wonderful gardens and it was really lovely to see people gathering on a hot, sunny day to dance in the shady avenues of trees.
It could take about the whole day for visitors to explore this amazing palace. You will learn a lot about the history of China-Ching dynasty during the visit which is so meaningful for people who are interested in the culture of ancient China.
