Discover the East Palace (Gate Donggongmen in Chinese)

The East palace Gate is the main entrance to the Summer Palace.

  • The opening in the center was for the emperor and empress exclusively.
  • The two side openings were for the use of princes and court officials.
  • Eunuchs and soldiers used side gates to the south and north.

The plaque "Yiheyuan", which means "Garden of Nurtured Harmony, in front of the gate was written by emperor Guang Xu, ". The stone slab in front of the gate bears a carving in relief of two dragons playing with a pearl, a symbol of imperial authority.
