Yuan Capital Earthen Wall Relics Park: old pavillion

Yuan Capital Earthen Wall Relics Park was built in 2003 upon the earthen city wall relics of the Yuan Dynasty.
 
It is 4,200 meters long, consisted by a 15-meter wide moat and a green belt. The moat is now a dried-up riverbed until the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, due to a channel cleanout project.

Beijing government designed the park to preserve and present these historical relics, as well as to improve the environment, beautify the scenery, and enrich the local ecosystem. We will discover several scenic areas along this walk.
