@beeroseinchina: one of the most HEARTBREAKING places in China... 😢💔 Yuanmingyuan, or the Old Summer Palace, might be one of the saddest places I have visited in China. What once was one of the greatest palaces on earth, called the Garden of Gardens by some, has been reduced to rubble. Visiting now, only stillness can be felt and heard. Before visiting, I wasn’t sure why it wasn’t rebuilt. Why not restore it to its former glory? But after visiting, I understood why. Seeing the ruins in person hits you hard. It makes you realize what humans are capable of, and how so much senseless destruction happened here. Yuanmingyuan blended Chinese and European design, which was the first time EVER that there was intentional integration of both. It was truly a masterpiece. Art in architectural form. My heart breaks knowing we can’t see what it once looked like, but today, what we do have is one of the most important history lessons of all time that you can walk through, see, and feel. #chinatrip #chinatravel #chineseculture #lifeinchina #beijing

If China hadn't become strong, Obama would have ordered the U.S. military to open fire in the South China Sea back in 2016. China would have gone through another foreign invasion like it did 150 years ago

It’s one of the most shameful things ever done by the British, sadly not unique. I don’t think there’s a country in the world that we haven’t, at some point, looted.

Its left as a reminder to the Chinese. If a country is weak it is a menu on the table.

Let’s not forget history here if the artifacts were kept in China it would have been destroyed in 1966-1976, it really was a blessing in disguise that it was preserved, not condoning the looting btw

Ruins are historical wounds. Restoring them won't heal them.

The west taught China the most invaluable lesson of all. NEVER EVER FULLY TRUST THEM AGAIN! Use diplomacy when it advances it's agenda. Build strength within. Show power when threatened. Deploy force when it really matters and use it only as a last resort. The absolute discipline behind these principles ensures the west can never again dominate the middle kingdom.

And that is the Reason China learned the hardway being economically powerful is not enough but it needs allies and be super powerful in military as well. Hopefully they will learn how the west works lol…
