Threes: The Summer Palace, China

Historians believe that Confucius once said, “Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.” I hope historians are right, because I really like that quote.

A series of three photos: I snapped the following series of pictures during a trip to the Beijing Summer Palace; one of the most beautifully tranquil places I’ve ever been. Enjoy!
