CHINA-BEIJING-OLD SUMMER PALACE-30TH ANNIVERSARY (CN)

Dragon boat teams compete in the Fuhai Lake of Yuanmingyuan Park, or the Old Summer Palace, in Beijing, capital of China, June 30, 2018. People gathered here on Saturday to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the official opening of the Yuanmingyuan Park to public. The Old Summer Palace on the northwestern outskirts of Beijing was restored from ruins of the former imperial garden Yuanmingyuan built in 1709. It was burned down by the British and French troops in 1860, partially rebuilt, and then sacked again by allied forces of eight invading foreign powers in 1900. (Xinhua/Luo Xiaoguang)
