This is the Prince Gong's Mansion in Beijing, China. I took this photo last summer. It's Beijing's largest and the best preserved Qing Dynasty princely mansion. Now, it's a park. It's located in the center of Beijing, where are many traditional buildings there. This part is the garden of the Mansion. There is a man-made lake with a lot of lotuses. The theory of traditional Chinese building believes that the water can bring fortune to the host of the building. In the center of the lake is a wooden pavilion. People can get to the pavilion through the wooden bridge. The main part of the pavilion and the bridge were painted in red--the lucky color.
You can sit in the pavilion and see the wonderful views around here. You will feel peaceful and fragrant.
