Hello. After verifying with the Summer Palace, the scenic area now implements a free admission policy for visitors aged over 60 (inclusive). Given the situation you have described, you do not need to purchase tickets in advance. At the time of your visit, you may present your passport, Foreigner Permanent Resident ID Card, or any other valid identity document at the ticket verification lane at the entrance for free entry.

If you need further assistance, you are welcome to call the Summer Palace's 24-hour service hotline at +86-10-62881144 (or 010-62881144 if you are in the Chinese mainland). English services are available from 8:30 to 17:00.

Thank you for your understanding and support!
