The Old Summer Palace was once known as the "Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens". Its scale and architectural style are second to none in the world. Unfortunately, such a magnificent and beautiful building was burned down by a group of robbers.

The first time I came to Yuanmingyuan was around 1982. Xu Guodong, a classmate of Tsinghua University, took me here to visit. The second time I went to the Old Summer Palace was in the summer of 1991. The unit organized a tour to visit here. After years of continuous repair and restoration, a large-scale park with ruins and water scenery as the mainstay has been formed here.

May 3rd is the middle of the May Day holiday. Seeing that I can still get tickets for the day, I decided to join in the fun. The child said that you are going to see people. On the subway, my daughter said, someone posted a post, and someone queued up at the south gate for 2 hours before entering, but our tickets marked the entrance of Zhengjue Temple, and we went in very smoothly, without waiting in line. There is a stone carving in front of Zhengjue Temple. Mr. Ouyang Zhongshi wrote "can't forget", yes, that era of humiliation that was ravaged and trampled by others should not be forgotten at any time. There are not many visitors in Zhengjue Temple. We visited Zhengjue Temple first. There is an exhibition of twelve animal heads in Zhengjue Temple. Seeing the returned national treasure, I deeply feel that only a strong country has dignity.

Entering the Old Summer Palace, you are immediately attracted by the scenery in front of you. It is really "the spring scenery is blooming, and the clear water bridge is in the painting". Walking along the lakeshore, the green willows are swaying with the wind, which is so beautiful. I also saw bougainvilleas and chrysanthemums blooming together. It can be said that "the willows meet the sky with endless green, and the flowers reflect the sun with a different kind of red".

At the food sales office, I saw a lively scene, as if everyone was spending other people's money, scrambling to scan the QR code to pay.

The waterscape of Yuanmingyuan is spectacular, groups of fish swim happily, mandarin ducks and wild ducks play leisurely, and there are different cruise ships in different areas. Tourists can enjoy themselves by rowing or taking a boat on the lake. Spending money to take a boat is naturally happy, really "The scenery near and far can't stop, and the light boat takes out the wallet leisurely."

We took a cruise ship from the Kingfisher Wharf to the Panorama Model Wharf, and bought tickets for another 10 yuan to visit the "Yuanmingyuan Panoramic Model Exhibition in its prime". Undoubtedly, it is a precious property of all mankind. The combination of Chinese and Western landscapes in the park is the first-class grandeur.

Then we went to the ruins of the Western Building, where an additional 15 yuan ticket was charged. The buildings in the Xiyanglou Scenic Area were the key landscape of the Old Summer Palace in those days, and they were the perfect display of the Sinicization of Western architecture. Now they are ruins and ruins. Seeing the famous Dashuifa ruins and Haiyantang ruins, I immediately thought of "the shame of burning the garden, it is still not snowing, when will the hatred of the country be destroyed. Drive a long eagle to break through the mountains of the Eight Kingdoms, eat the meat of the barbarians hungry with ambition, and talk thirsty and drink with a smile. Foreign meat and blood. When you are strong, rebuild the old mountains and rivers and face the sky." The animal heads of the twelve zodiac animals that returned a few years ago were in front of Haiyan Hall.

In the ruins of the Western Building, there is a building restored according to its original appearance, which is Huanghuazhen, also known as Wanhuazhen. This is a garden built after the European folk palace. The emperor, concubine, Baylor, Gege and all the ministers held parties here. There are many forks in the garden from the entrance to the center, and it is interesting to turn back and forth. I thought that there is only one way to enter the center, and the rest of the roads are mazes.

In its heyday, there were many bridges in the garden, and I saw a broken bridge, which was the only remaining bridge after the Yuanmingyuan was destroyed. It witnessed the prosperity and decline of the Yuanmingyuan, and also witnessed today's peaceful and prosperous age.

Although Yuanmingyuan Ruins Park has lost its heyday style, it still has the charm of landscape gardens. While admiring the beautiful scenery, you will not forget to feel the history, and you can be filled with righteous indignation and enthusiasm here.

really:

Jichun will go to Linxia early, and the koi carp ripples in the lake.
Like a carpet of green weeping willows, the boundless scenery is the best.
The ruins are desolate and full of blood and tears, embarrassing the old road.
The eyes are full of time, and today is again, and the east wind is making a new way.
