Emperor's citywalk crosses the royal canal

Emperor's Grand Canal, you really have fun 😄 The fragrance of flowers and the chirping of birds make the most of the Emperor's royal canal. To this day, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is still the longest and largest ancient canal in the world, starting from Hangzhou in the south and reaching the Emperor's capital in the north. As the feng shui dragon vein that connects the north and the south, the royal canal from the Forbidden City to the Summer Palace in the west of Beijing was the route Emperor Qianlong took to the Temple of Longevity to pray for his mother's blessings and longevity. It was also the route the Empress Dowager took every summer to the Summer Palace to escape the heat. (❤ε❤) Recommended reason: The canal has long been open to the public, and the waterway has been refurbished. The refreshing months of April and May are the perfect time to experience the charm of the capital's feng shui dragon vein. With pleasure boats gently cruising the long river, one can view the willows and a hundred flowers in bloom, and enjoy the romantic scenery while tasting the grand feast of the millennium canal! During the May Day period, Beixiang also launches the urban holiday stroll City Walk with special offers! Friendly reminder: on Saturday morning, there is a farmers' market at the Beijing Shangri-La, which is a great place to visit! (🟠'◡'🟠) Visitor's guide: The Temple of Longevity is known as the 'Little Forbidden City' in the west of Beijing, also called the Beijing Art Museum, with a collection of over 120,000 art pieces ranging from the pre-Qin period to the Republic of China. The ancient temple, royal palace, and garden are integrated into one, and these days the tulips in the back garden are in full bloom! The Pacific Undersea World is located under the Central Radio & TV Tower, with hundreds of marine and freshwater creatures. You can watch people dance with sharks, seal performances, and even try diving 🧜🏻‍♀️. Opposite the TV tower is Yuyuantan Park, where you can still see the late cherry blossoms.
