Just a few steps from the East Gate of the vast Summer Palace grounds, Aman Summer Palace offers a selection of heritage-imbued dwellings, including those once used by guests awaiting an audience with the Empress. Simple, elegant and redolent of the past, the 51 Rooms and Suites reflect the traditional courtyard style of the neighbouring Summer Palace. A traditional Chinese village set amid forests and Buddhist temples near West Lake and Hangzhou.
