The New Yuanmingyuan Palace in Zhuhai was built in 1997 with an area of 1.39 sq. km, about one third of the original Qing imperial Yuanmingyuan Palace in Beijing.
The original Yuanmingyuan Palace was located in the western suburb of Beijing. The construction of the palace started in 1709 and eventually completed after 151 years. It saw six emperors and was a demonstration of national manpower, economic prosperity and the
wisdom of Chine people. There you could appreciate more than 40 domestic and foreign scenic spots and 145 buildings, most of which were of traditional courtyard style except one which was of western style. It was a treasure of Chine garden-type building. Hugo, the celebrated French literary giant, sang high prai of the Palace, “In a corner of the world there existed a man-made miracle –the Winter Palace…The Winter Palace, indeed, was the crystallization of all of the art that an almost superman race could have fancied.” However, all the treasures were looted and the buildings were ruined in fires t by the Allied Anglo-French Forces in 1860 and the Eight-power Allied Forces in 1990 respectively. So now, at the site, only remnants could be spotted.
