The Summer PaIace，历史该叫"颐和园"(见下)，但也有一译作"夏宫"。
The Summer Palace (Chinese: 颐和园; pinyin: Yíhéyuán), is a vast ensemble of lakes, gardens and palaces in Beijing, China. It serves as a popular tourist destination and recreational park. Mainly dominated by Longevity Hill (万寿山; 万寿山; Wànshòu Shān) and Kunming Lake, it covers an expanse of 2.9 square kilometres (1.1 sq mi), three-quarters of which is water.
Longevity Hill is about 60 metres (200 feet) high and has many buildings positioned in sequence. The front hill is rich with splendid halls and pavilions, while the back hill, in sharp contrast, is quiet with natural beauty. The central Kunming Lake, covering 2.2 square kilometres (540 acres), was entirely man-made and the excavated soil was used to build Longevity Hill. In December 1998, UNESCO included the Summer Palace on its World Heritage List.
颐和园是清朝的皇家行宫和大型皇家园林，位于中国北京市海淀区西北，占地290公顷（合4400亩）。颐和园修建于清朝乾隆年间（原名清漪园）、重建于光绪年间，曾属于清朝北京西郊三山五园之一。颐和园素以人工建筑与自然山水巧妙结合的造园手法著称于世，是中国园林艺术顶峰时期的代表。1998年12月，颐和园被评为世界文化遗产。本回答被网友采纳
