Introduction to Wanhe Songfeng: It is located in the northeast corner of the main palace, adjacent to Songhezhai in the south and Xiahu in the north. It is the sixth scene in the "Thirty-Six Scenes of Kangxi". Built in the 47th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign in the Qing Dynasty (1708), it is the earliest group of buildings in the palace area. The shape is similar to the Harmonious Garden of the Summer Palace. It is connected and surrounded by semi-enclosed corridors. There is no main axis. The Wanhe Yingfeng Hall, Jianshizhai, Jingjia Room, Summer Palace Bookstore, Penglang Xianying and other halls are scattered at random. The main hall, Wanhe Songfeng Hall, faces south and faces north. It is the only main hall in the villa that breaks the north-south system.
