About This Tour
Sail across Kunming Lake as the sun gilds the Marble Boat and Seventeen-Arch Bridge — then wander palace corridors and pavilions when crowds thin and light softens. Includes a lakeside *xiao long bao* picnic and poetic commentary on Qing dynasty garden philosophy. Serene, cinematic, and soul-restoring.
