The elegant Paiyun Dian in Longevity Hill, Summer Palace

#chinatravel Paiyun Dian, or the Hall That Dispels the Clouds, is a peaceful spot in the Summer Palace. Once used for Empress Dowager Cixi’s birthday celebrations, it’s a grand hall with old-style Chinese architecture. It sits on Longevity Hill and gives you a feel of how royals once lived. Quiet, elegant, and full of history, it's a cool stop on your Summer Palace walk. #paiyundian #summerpalace
