Its predecessor was Wengshan Lake, which was built during the reign of Emperor Qianlong in order to imitate the landscape of West Lake in Hangzhou. 2️⃣The Seventeen-Arch Bridge is located in the waters on the east side of Kunming Lake in the Summer Palace. It is connected to Nanhu Island in the west and the East Dike of Kunming Lake in the east. It is the only way to enter and exit Nanhu Island by land. The bridge was first built in the 15th year of Emperor Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty (1750) and has a history of more than 200 years. It is the longest existing bridge in Chinese royal gardens. 3️⃣The bridge body consists of 17 holes, with the largest in the middle and gradually smaller on both sides. The most amazing thing is the stone carving art on the bridge railings. There are 62 pairs of bridge railings, with more than 540 stone lions carved on the tops of the columns. They are in various shapes, some standing majestically, some playing, and some resting with their eyes closed. Each one is lifelike, as if telling its own story. 4️⃣ The Seventeen-Arch Bridge is suitable for visiting in all seasons, but each season has its own unique scenery. In spring, peach blossoms bloom by the bridge and the lake ripples; in summer, lotus leaves stretch across the sky, a sea of ​​green; in autumn, maple leaves are like fire, dyeing the bridge red; in winter, the bridge is covered in silver, making it even more simple and elegant. In addition, the "golden light shining through the hole" around the winter solstice is a spectacle not to be missed. ✅I only felt the breath of spring, and I will experience other scenes when I have the chance. ✅Sunset starts at about 4pm and lasts until sunset ✅The shooting location is along the long corridor along the side of Kunming Lake to the Seventeen-Arch Bridge
