In the Nanyue Grand Temple complex, #dragons are everywhere — vibrant and full of life. Whether in the form of intricate roof tiles, pillar carvings, or wall murals, these dragons embody the essence of royal authority, auspiciousness, and power. Truly magnificent craftsmanship! 🐉 #China

The Summer Palace’s Kurukujing Pavilion is a #wildlife haven, known for its role in studying migratory Beijing #swifts. But there’s more—many #bats call it home, including those around Kunming Lake! In 1958, experts found thousands of bats across Summer Palace roofs, w/ at least 3 species! 🦇🌊
