❄️ Have you ever seen a lake that looks like a giant mirror? In Beijing, China, there’s a magical place called Kunming Lake at the Summer Palace. During winter, the lake freezes over, turning the whole area into a sparkling wonderland! ✨
The ice forms in patches on the water, creating a beautiful mix of blue and orange colors. As the sun sets, its golden rays light up the famous Seventeen Arch Bridge, making it glow like it’s made of gold! 🌇
Local people love to visit the lake in winter. They come to enjoy the stunning views and take amazing photos. Some even play winter sports on the frozen lake! 🏒⛸️
The Summer Palace wasn’t always a place for fun. A long time ago, during the Qing Dynasty (which was from 1644 to 1911), it was a special place for emperors. They had beautiful gardens, lakes, and palaces here. Imagine living in a palace by a frozen lake! 🏯
Next time you’re in Beijing during winter, don’t miss out on the icy beauty of Kunming Lake. It’s like stepping into a fairytale! 📸
