Beijing Summer Palace Ticket & Multilingual Guide

Choose your package and
explore the Summer Palace freely

The ticket + audio guide package includes a standard entry ticket and a multilingual mobile audio guide, so you can explore at your own pace while listening to commentary on main outdoor sights such as the Long Corridor and the Seventeen-Arch Bridge, along with stories of the imperial family and architecture.

The audio guide-only package does not include an entry ticket, so you need to arrange one separately. There is no fixed start or end point; activate the audio guide after entering and explore freely.

Hear the stories of the imperial garden
with a live guide

On the live guided tour package, meet your guide at the meeting point inside the East Palace Gate and visit the Hall of Benevolence and Longevity, the Hall of Jade Ripples, the Hall of Happiness and Longevity, the Long Corridor, the Hall of Dispelling Clouds and the Tower of Buddhist Incense. Hear about imperial history, architecture and the corridor paintings. The route is fixed and the tour ends at the Marble Boat.

Cruise Kunming Lake
and see the Seventeen-Arch Bridge

The boat cruise package departs from the Marble Boat pier and crosses Kunming Lake to the South Lake Island pier. Admire Longevity Hill, the Tower of Buddhist Incense, pavilions, willows and lotus flowers from the boat, then see the Seventeen-Arch Bridge from South Lake Island. There is no separate queue for boat tickets, making it convenient for families and groups.

Dress in traditional costume
and take photos in the garden

The hanfu package includes an entry ticket, a traditional costume and makeup styling. Choose your costume and get styled at the costume rental shop outside the garden, then take photos freely at spots such as the Long Corridor and the Seventeen-Arch Bridge. There is no set meeting time or route; return the costume and props after use.

※ Boats operate seasonally and may be suspended in strong winds or heavy rain according to on-site notices.
※ If the boat ride is canceled due to weather or official orders, you will receive a full refund.
