In ancient times Chengde was the emperors home in the summer because it was suppose to be cooler than Beijing. I think the emperor might have gotten a little disappointed after they build his palace because Chengde was sunny and hotter than Beijing!
The coolest scenic spots in Chegde was definitely the Tibetan replica of Lhasa's "Roof of Heaven"
For the people who has been in Beijing this picture might look familiar. The road and the lights looks just like Beijing's biggest road Changanjie (long safe road) which crosses Tiananmen. Chengde, copycats wanting to be like Beijing...
