- The Yuanmingyuan, or Old Summer Palace, in Beijing was once known as the "Garden of All Gardens" as it brought oriental gardens and Eastern and Western architecture together. French and British troops burned it to the ground in 1860 during the Second Opium War, but thanks to modern technology, we can now explore it in its original glory. Check out this video and have a look at the wisdom and aesthetics of the old Chinese architecture.

Chinese should never forget this atrocity on their culture and civilization.
Well they shouldn't have pissed off the British by torturing their ambassador. That's a dumb move in their part
@@anjeloambi6425 I mean the Brits were bullying China with illegal opium trade so dont make it sound like China was in the wrong here. Karma will get the UK back sooner or later -- they stole trillions from India and millions from China.
@@anjeloambi6425 The British should not have waged war against China for trying to stop the Opium trade. British people have no shame!
Don't worry, they wont.
@@anjeloambi6425 What ??? They were supposed to just accept all the atrocities that the british and the other invaders were dealing out, quietly? And say "yes sir, no sir, thank you, sir". Nope, the chinese should never be "pissed off" even after decades of being "trampled" in their own land, but the occupying foreigners had the right to be "pissed off".
And how many Chinese officials have they killed too ? I guess chinese names are not worth remembering, but one english ambassador need to be recorded in history books.
Wow imperial Chinese architecture is exquisite and other-wordly. I love how Buddhist and Daoist philosophy is integrated into the designs, as it gives each space additional meaning. A person not just exists in the space but relates to it on a spiritual level.
THANK YOU! WONDERFUL CULTURE!
I like ancient Chinese culture . Sadly , modern day China less so . 🇨🇳
Thank you for this virtual reality video of 圆明园. Look forward to see more videos about this garden. The presenter is just as beautiful as the garden! Her English is excellent - clear and crispy.
Thanks for bringing back the former glory of the Old Summer Palace or YuanMingYuan with VR. Trust it is the new way to travel for combining f2f and virtual experiences when the new normal comes post covid. I look forward to seeing more VR recreations of other awesome sights of the Western style mansions at the Old Summer Palace where the largest collection of Western style palatial structures can be found in ancient China.
I not suprised, British did to Javanese palace to, we remember as 'Geger Sepehi" in 1812, the looting of treasture, gold, rare item, manuscript, jewerely, and burning and plunder of palace complex. British do to many historical palace complex, in Burma, Malay archipelago and India were many gold, artifact manuscript and jewerly are the best.
it was all there, before 1857, until the second evil wave of the opium war, and yes, the perpetrators got the upper hand.
The Chinese people never had to learn from the past why let the foreigners kept invading them, from the Xiongnu, the Gorturk, the Mongol, the British, the French, the Japanese and others. The Chinese people need to prepare for war all the time, don't let the guard down.
@The Middle Kingdom - It’s good to be prepared but you don’t you think you’re sounding just a little too paranoid.

@@Valencetheshireman927 Paranoid, this word you should refer to the U S and the U K, they have more than 800 military bases around the world, their soldiers stationed on some of the countries that the local people wanted them to get out. Recently, the Ecuador government is not going to renew for the U S military base in their territory.
@@Valencetheshireman927你觉得偏执，是因为你的国家没有经历过那些历史。那些让人不敢想象的历史
😮 Old summer palace is very beautiful the person who build that must be very smart to get those ideas if it were me I wouldn’t even think of this
Amaizing place of china
Thank you CGTN for uploading this. I've always been fascinated with Yuanmingyuan. I keep coming back to it from time to time since my college days. It would have been a true wonder in the world if not for the Opium war and the Westerners stealing what was there.
Heavenly.
Beautiful ❤
China 🇨🇳 🇨🇳
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
That's why China must build more
Aircraft carriers and more stealth fighters. More advance military. To defend and protect the country.
you mean buy more from Russians?lol
Protect and be defensive not enough. China must learn from India planning to drop 200 nukes on England.
India is not planning to drop nukes in England! Enhanced has MORE nuke than India so of India fired on Britain they would fire back HARDER . Ever heard of mutually assured destruction?
@@superpooper_2030 no. war with these terrible weapons would destroy priceless parts of history in the west and east, and mabye even civilizations as we know it.
Conflict like that is not an option in the present, unless you okay with bringing your own society and people down in the end
Amazing VR work! Great video thank you.
A stunning masterpiece and a staple of China's unlimited building capabilities. Hope it will be rebuild one day but even if it's not, the Chinese people always exceed at surpassing their previous achievements, so they'll create something different, even more creative and innovative, the likes of Shenzhen's cyber-punk themed skyline for example.

honestly, I am more intersted in the daming and weiyang palaces. The are much older, and are the largest in the world.
I think I read somewhere that China deliberately left the ruins there, as a constant, visible reminder of what the West did to their country. They will not be rebuilding it.
As the world renowned mega construction master builders, China should reconstruct a replica of the Old Summer Palace for local tourism.
About 20 years ago CCTV made a documentary about the history of the Old Summer Palace, I played Lord Elgin, the leader of the expedition that burned many of the buildings in 1860. Now there are not many buildings left but it is still a beautiful park, people go there for a spot of boating or to find a quiet place and do taiji. I always like to remind people that when Elgin burned it down it was the private property of the Emperor and common people were definitely not allowed in there.
Excellent work!!! What is more, there are subtitles!!! Keep using them! VERY important. Thanks!!!
Beautiful
This is amazing! i wish for more virtual videos reconstructing the old cities!!! 👏👌❣️
This is great
the anchor is so beautiful and elegant.
Too amazing Chinese cultured and history.
The fish represented his people, he fed them. But what about his actual people
actual people died of hunger because of corruption
Scars from who？
I can't tell and you wouldn't say,
but deep in my heart,
I shall never forget!
that my country's premium
is now in the British Museum
and our ancestral treasure trove
is relocated to Musée du Louvre
Tears blur my sight,
at the sun's bright,
Sadness soaring
from deep beneath
Fists clenching:
I cannot breathe!
'cos looters are still at large,
without the slightest of guilt,
harassing, bullying,
and bending my will!
Somewhere from afar,
I hear my Indian brother's sobbing.
Well, at least on my own land
I am still standing!
Agree they should return the things , however, if the items had stayed in China, be sure Mao would have stolen or destroyed them just like he did with many important cultural things.
The tech is outstanding.
The reporter is so talented end pretty
I have 2 questions
1:- What was the Total area???
2:- Tell me the area covered by building ????
I’m looking at her more than the VR

Slayer - Seasons In The Abyss
The manchu summer palace of light and perfection. Musie manchu.
😍
Raveesh happy rocketman, India
Well, shout out to those who looted and burnt it down to the ground.
We are good at building things. Destory them or enjoy them, World! :)
Do you have an estimate of the value of treasure & buildings looted & burned down?
priceless
Countless. If you visit The British Museum, and you will see, wow, so many antiques fr other civilizations.
Now that its been rendered and plotted" BUILD IT" so I can go on a vacation there.
Interesting I have been to china several times on business.The people I have met have a different view one that is more about reflecting on the past and rebuilding there heritage , physically and spiritually. The look at it as knowing where they are from so they know where to go in the future as there homeland now is part of the global culture and economy. These people refer to china as "The new China" in a attempt to present there culture and country in the light as opposed to the china of the past. Making a comment that reflects your belief and presenting it as the opinion of a nation that is just being narrow minded, unwilling to think or critically think as a independent person. Try thinking as a modern and educated individual in that people around the globe have respect and a interest in Chinese culture. Dwelling on the dark past will only fuel and recycle the hate, this will prevent a culture from moving forward and promoting peace and harmony. @Xiao Han
圆明园！
In the end history will be your Judge.
1:16: I wonder how many Guinness World Records would Qianlong win for biggest goldfish pond?
胜境翻译成 of victory 也太偷懒了吧哈哈哈哈哈
while this video was incredible in its own right, it is important to remember that, at best, this is an amazing palace with great architecture, history and narration, but, virtual reality is a bit of this "fantasy land," so, let's remember to not mis-associate fantasy from reality. This is sort of a VR thing, but not most of China. Still, BOTH should be understood
A generation of Chinese emperors can build the Great Wall of China. But do you know that the Summer Palace is the place where the six generations of emperors kept the precious gold and silver jewelry of China.
What are you talking about? They recreated the palace with modern computer technology using old building and architectural records, photos, paintings, written descriptions as references. Of course, there might be some small variances from reality but they did not invent a new fantasy palace just for show.
This is a recreation of the destroyed Old Summer Palace sacked by the French and the British. You can find many artifacts still kept in the Louvre Museum and the British Museum and even the Metropolitan Museum from the looting done to this Old Summer Palace.
King Charles must be so proud of his family's British Empire cultural & human plunder & War Crime.
Man.. she is so captivating. I want to marry her.
umm...ok... lol
Bruh
She is virtual too.
So the British destroyed all of these？
British and French
@@otaviodelucca3573 The French command refused to burn it. The British did
@@storm7090 What rubbish, the French joined in as well.
Omg I would love to explore that hot little smoke show yesah shower
CHINA....PLEASE DONT BOW TO OPPRESSION ....FOR I DONT.....
So overall, it’s basically a back up home and also could be for summer vacations
The Summer Palace ruins should never be rebuilt and stand as a lasting reminder of what the Anglo barbarian world is capable of.
No. Please rebuild. I am not Chinese but I love Chinese arts
And the Chinese barbarians? Torturing people to death in unspeakable ways in the Board of Punishments in Peking? The only people who got to enjoy the Summer Palace were a miniscule minority of opium-addicted, autocratic despots.
Hey, didn't Mao Zedong's ideas destroy about 30-45 million Chinese people during the Great Leap? He wasn't Anglo Barbarian , he was Chinese pesant, and that's what he did to China and Chinese people. Oh wait he also ordered to destroy many Chinese antiques and artworks, including valuable artifacts, historic buildings, and religious sites during China's cultural revelation.
@@tiram12 Oh wait a minute, China is collapsing, China is doomed, China is finished, China is a failed state blah, blah, blah.
對不起
my my .. as an englishman, i dare say it looks awfully flammable
I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt but your comment sounds very much like you are giving excuses for the foreign aggressors who burnt down the Palace?
You should look at the American houses built with wood, very flammable indeed.
What a loss to humanity!
A building like that should never have been burned. Though is it at all worth mentioning that the reluctant decision to torch the summer palace was made after the Qing tortured and murdered members a diplomatic mission sent to try to end the war? Maybe look to your own barbarity when it gives rise to barbarity in others.
The West's delivery of drugs to China has been glorified as free trade. The Chinese people's resistance to the colonists was vilified as barbarism. The world's largest royal garden was robbed and burned. Westerners are hypocritical. You are a group of robbers. When the Chinese and Russian allied forces hit Britain and France, we will take back what we were robbed by ourselves. Burn your palace!
they had larger, tons more palaces before, so this is not the most grand one. Weiyang was the largest ever built on earth, I hope they focus on building that palace more.
and no, there's not much excuse...trust me, they will get the certain a.rtifacts back one way or another.
@Q K Thank you for the comment. You have successfully completed the course on BBC propaganda consumption starter pack.
Wow, there is just no good words to describe your comments. Shows you have no empathy but lots of ignorance and the twisting of history. I wonder which country you come from, mainly what is the history of your country? Are you from a perpertrator country or a colonized one? I have just read a book about the last Empress of China, which covers the era around the destruction of the Summer Palace, the Yuanmingyuan, and I could feel the pain and humiliation of the Qing Dynasty Chinese nation and people. I urge you to study history before making such remarks.
japan will retake the kurils sakhalin and vladivostok south korea wil ltake north korea.
Japan must to take kurils Sakhalin, it belongs to Japan. Russia should be held accountable for stealing other cou tries land!!! I thought Vladivostok is China's old city? Am I wrong? Isn't it Manchuria?
What a load of bs
Are you Chinese, or are you just pretending to be one? If you are Chinese, study your history and be proud of your birth heritage. China is the only country in our world that has a continuous ancient civilizational history for over 5000+ years!!! If you are a foreigner, then also study history. Give up your colonial and imperialist mindset. Yuanmingyuan existed physically and there is no dispute that foreign powers, mainly Britain and France, were involved in it's destruction. This is not "bs", as you say!!! This is what the Chinese refer to as their "century of humiliation" when foreign powers literally divided China into sections like cutting up a pie! This is NOT "a load of bs", as you say!!! Due to high tech, it is so nice that they have been able to show the beauty of the Palace, which unfortunately we, humans from all over the world, are unable to physically witness now because it was brutally destroyed!!!
@@jademoon1530you write like you hate foreigners and foreign countries based on the unfortunate incident where the old summer palace was destroyed. It is very sad. It would have been amazing addition to China's existing palaces. However what Mao did during cultural revolution is even worse. During the Cultural Revolution, a vast number of Chinese antiques and artworks were destroyed, including valuable artifacts, historic buildings, and religious sites. 30-45 million of Chinese people died because of the Great Leap. Not even sure if the number is correct because the ccp isn't transparent at all. Thankfully the old summer palace antiques are in the museum in UK and France, imagine how Mao would have destroyed them. Greece and Egypt also have 5000 years civilization!! Don't think you are so special and better than others but I can't blame you because this has been ccp's propaganda towards foreign countries sine Xi Jinping got into office and clearly it's working. We are all humans and bleed the same red. You are no different.
British biggest sin
