Beijing Botanical Garden
The Bonsai garden is divided into two parts: internal exhibition and external exhibition. The internal exhibition is further divided into the Exhibition Hall of Fine Potted landscapes, the Comprehensive Exhibition Hall and the Exhibition Hall for Different Schools, Which exhibits some of the outstanding works from Beijing and the other parts of China.

Summer Palace (Yiheyuan)
This palace was the "summer home" of the emperor during the Ming and Qing dynasties, located in Haidian District, some 12 kilometers northwest of the downtown, the Summer Palace is the largest imperial garden in the world. The landscape architects have utilized Longevity Hill and Kunming Lake to create a paradise of hills and waters. Artisans reproduced the garden architecture styles of various palaces in China (including a Penjing Garden) and combined them to create a harmonious atmosphere, a veritable museum of classical Chinese garden architecture.
