Beihai Park2006-11-2 16:39:13Beihai Park Beihai Park has been a playground for emperors for hundreds of years. Some attribute this site to Kublai Khan, grandson of Genghis Khan and founder of the Yuan Dynasty in China. The island at the southern end of the lake is said to have been created by excavating the lake on the orders of Kublai Khan, and this location is associated with his great palace. This would have been the centre of Beijing before the Forbidden city was build in the Ming and Qing dynasties. Unfortunately, all that remains of the Khan’s palace today s a large jar made of green jade. Dominating this island, known as the Jade Islet, is a 36m high white dagoba, originally built in 1651 and then rebuilt in 1741. This is one of the most famous dagobas in all of China# Stupas of all kinds appeared in China with the import of Buddhism. In Chinese, these are all known as 塔, including all styles of stupas and pagodas. Initially, stupas were said to contain some sort of Buddhist relic or ashes of a saintly Buddha. Other times, stupas were built to safekeep holy scriptures and various ritual implements. This leads to the terms 佛塔 Buddha’s pagodas or 宝塔 treasure pagodas. The dagoba is a pagoda of Tibetan style and is sometimes called 喇嘛塔 after the Llamanist school of Buddhism. Mongolians have also been followers of this school, which originated in Tibet. So it makes sense that Kublai Khan would set about building a large dagoba in Beijing after selecting the city as the capital of the Yuan Dynasty. It was hoped that the dagoba would symbolize the regime’s divine power and keep the nation at peace. Another attraction in Beihai Park is the 9 Dragon Wall 九龙壁, sculpted in 7 colours of glazed tile. Screen walls were common in traditional architecture for giving privacy to an entrance as well as serving as a symbol of rank. The number 9 and the dragon are both symbols of the Emperor. The screen wall in Beihai Park is considered the most splendid of three similar walls in China dating from the Ming dynasty. So the wall in Beihai Park is definitely worth seeing when you visit.

北海公园原是辽、金、元、明、清历代封建帝王的御花园。总面积共有68.2公顷。公园的中心——琼岛，周长1913米，高32.8米，是1179年（金代）用挖海的泥土堆成的。岛上白塔建于1651年，塔高35.9米。

Beihai (North Lake) Park, covering an area of 68.2 hectares, was the imperial garden in the Liao, Jin，Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. The centre of the park is Qiong Island, 32.8 metres high and 1913 metres in circumference. It was made in 1179 (in the Jin Dynasty) with the earth that came from the digging of the lake. The White Pagoda built on it in 1651 is as high as 35.9 metres.

琼岛东北部有“琼岛春阴”碑，为1751年建立，附近风光秀丽，过去是燕京八景之一。

There is a stone tablet erected in 1751 in the northeast of Qiong Island, with“Qiong Dao Chun Yin”(Spring Shade on the Qiong Island) engraved on it. This area, noted for its beautiful scenery, was counted as one of the eight outstanding views of Beijing.

海北岸有“五龙亭”，建于1602年，是封建皇帝钓鱼和看焰火的地方；“九龙壁”，建于1756年，全璧用五彩琉璃瓦砌成，两面各有蟠龙九条，姿态生动，反映了我国劳动人民的创造才能；“铁影壁”，是元代文物。

On the north shore of the lake are the Five Dragon Pavilions, built in 1602, where the emperors enjoyed fishing and watched fireworks. Not far to the northeast stands the Nine-Dragon Screen, put up in 1756, which is made of colourful glazed tiles. With nine lively dragons on each side, it has proved the creativeness of the working people of China. Near there is the Iron Screen, which is a relic of the Yuan Dynasty.
