Description

First constructed in 1755 by Emperor Qianlong in the Summer Palace, Beijing; destroyed then rebuilt by the Dowager Empress Cixi (the Dragon Lady) in the 1890s

(Note that the Emperor, like any bad guy in a Bond movie, has an escape vehicle moored alongside just in case his marble boat sinks.)
