PRINCE GONG'S PALACE
Many pavilions are distributed in a large park park. In the heart of this beautiful and very large garden open to the public, and in which you will be immersed in calm and peace (finally, provided that the hours of the park are invaded by tourist groups…), you will arrive in front of a former theatre that the Prince Gong had erected to organise his holidays and shows. Beijing opera performances are given regularly, you will be able to attend Saturday afternoon (to advise; he's a hobby.) The palace is, in fact, a large building planted on a terrace and whose roof with nicely-rated edges, as we often see in this Chinese architecture, is based on columns between which there are seven jian (space between two columns), which allows to assert that the Prince Gong was a first-class prince in the Qing hierarchy of the time. The very classical architecture of the Prince Gong Palace would have inspired the details of the famous novel Le Dream in the red pavilion.
