Królowa Życia w Chinach - Pałac Letni w Pekinie - czego nie wiecie?

The Queen of Life in China - the Summer Palace in Beijing - what don't you know? Beijing can be tiring, but Dagmara Kaźmierska has found the perfect place for a moment of respite – the Summer Palace in Beijing! This is where Chinese emperors escaped the hustle and bustle of the city and relaxed among the gardens, lakes, and pagodas. The Empress Who Spent Billions! One of the most famous figures associated with the Summer Palace was Empress Cixi – a true mistress of luxury. Instead of investing in the modernization of China, she spent vast sums on renovating the palace… and building a marble boat that NEVER sailed. Oh well, priorities! When the lake was the scene of a battle! The Summer Palace may look like paradise, but it also has a turbulent history. In the 19th century, it was destroyed by British and French troops and then rebuilt with even greater splendor. Today, you can stroll through the 700-meter-long covered gallery, each beam of which is decorated with a unique painting – over 14,000 paintings! The Summer Palace is one of the most beautiful corners of Beijing – full of history, peace, and breathtaking views. But is it really the best place to relax in China? Find out in this episode! 👉 If you were an emperor/empress, what would you build for yourself? 🤔 #dagmarakaźmierska #dagmarakingoflife #kingsoflife
