The Bai Ta Looking Out Towards The Lake

Beihai Park is an imperial garden, North of the Forbidden City, and initially connected to it. Its most noticeable and famous place is probably the Bai Ta (White Dagoba), a 40 meters high stupa placed on the highest point on Qiónghuá Island. But the whole park reflects the great Chinese architecture, with many pavilions and halls.
