Eating My Way Through China // A Photo Diary
Since I saw and ate so many interesting and delicious foods while I was in China, I thought I'd put together a post trying to compile everything I was able to photograph during my time in Beijing and Chengdu.

The Summer Palace in Beijing, China
The Summer Palace is a gorgeous area of Beijing that any visitor could easily spend a day or two exploring. There are lakes, gardens, and palaces sprinkled throughout; complete with paddleboats nestled next to giant lily pads, tranquil pathways to stroll down, and street vendors selling ice cream and other snacks around every corner.
