Description: The Yuanmingyuan Ruins Park consists of the Yuanmingyuan Garden (Garden of Perfect Brightness), the Changchun Garden (Garden of Eternal Spring) and the Qichun Garden (Garden of Elegant Spring). The entire park occupied a total area of 352 hectares. Yuanmingyuan was first built in the 46th year of the Kangxi era (1707 AD). It was a massive imperial garden, built and improved in a long span of over 150 years under the decrees of the six Qing emperors including Kangxi, Yongzheng, Qianlong, Jiaqing, Daoguang and Xianfeng. The Qing emperors constantly visited the garden for the management of state affairs and for entertainment. During her heyday, Yuanmingyuan was the "perfection of all landscape and garden designs". As an imperial garden, it diffused a majestic splendour while at the same time exhibited the elegance of private gardens in the south. Displaying the aesthetics of both Chinese and Western gardens, Yuanmingyuan was reputed as the "Garden of Gardens".On January 7, 2020, the Yuanmingyuan park at Haidian District, Beijing became an AAAAA Tourist Attractions of China.
