Beihai Park or Jade Island

On the other side of the Jingshan Park there is the Beihai Park on the small island. A small bridge leads there. On summertime you may be able to sail on the lake around.

You'll see some pictures from: Imperial Palace Museum (forbidden city), the Temple of Heaven Park, Summer Palace, Bell and Drum Tower, Jingshan Park (Coal Hill), Bei Hai Park, Zoo, Tianmen Square, a Budhist temple in the city - nearly in every most interesting place in Bejing and short way outside like the Great Wall and the Imperial Summer Palace.


Other trips on this site:
Prague, Izmir and Rome.
My other hobbies are:
Guitar playing and making music, renovation or building houses, building scale models, writing and reading books. Mainly historical - novels or classics.

On the top of this area there is a Budhist pagoda.

This is the world's largest jade pot made of one single jade peice.
These statues are watching the Budhist temple in the Beihai Park.Maybe they will be used as incense burner pots because of the holes on the top of each.

I'm scanning some more pictures to continue this article.
