Circular City

On the southern shore of the Beihai lake is an exquisitely built "city of cities". The only miniature city in Beijing, it is 276 meters in circumference, 4.6 meters in height, and 4,500 square meters in area.

Inside the Circular City stands an 800-year-old pine tree. There is also a 1.6-metre-tall benign looking Buddha carved smoothly of snow-white jade.
