Cmpared with the countless number of heritage sites across the length and breadth of China, the Summer Palace is young in its history. This,however, enabled the Summer Palace to take advantage of the best in the art of landscape architecture accumulated in a thousand years by the Chinese people and to become an unexcelled landmark in the history of the Chinese art of landscape architecture. This advantage, plus its position in the politics of modern history and the repeated disasters it has suffered, has turned the beautiful Summer Palace into a site that is attracting the attention of the people of the whole world. The author has devoted much effort in preparing the book and explains the intricacies in the history of the Summer Palace in simple terms.

About 460,000 years ago, Beijing was merely a primitive settlement. Later it grew into a political center of Yan and Ji, two kingdoms in north China, then the Capital of six feudaldynasties. Today, the capital of the People's Republic of China is an everexpanding international cosmopolis. As a city, Beijing has an uninterrupted history of over 3,000 years, which makes it unique in the world. The cultural antiques and historical artifacts bestowed by each era were passed down from one generation to another, turning the city into a huge museum itself. There are some 130 officially registered museums in Beijing, preserving 3.2 million artifacts in total.
Makye Ame does not attempt to summarize Tibelan culture.Instead,it gives expression to it from deep in our heats ,thereby conveying the Tibetan people's joys and sorrows as well as our desires and aspirations. I often wonder if we could find ways to let more people get a real picture of Tibtan culture in their daily lives rather than just in academic works with,and thus familiar-ize themselves with some of its more intrinsic features and join us in carrying it forward.
