Sacred lake at the Summer Palace in Beijing
Foxiangge, Summer Palace, Beijing
The lake which occupies three quarters of the area of the Summer Palace, was
beautiful and provides a breathtaking view of Foxiangge, the Temple of Buddhist
Virtue. We could only imagine how beautiful a sight it would have been on a crystal
clear day. To bad it was so hazy, but we still enjoyed it.

The bridges crossing the water were great photo opportunities. John, my brother-in-law, took the picture at far left
