Beijing

Two tickets to the Summer Palace, and the difference is what is behind the inner gates. The combined ticket covers the main gate and the enclosed sights inside: the Dehe Garden, Suzhou Street, the Tower of Buddhist Incense and the Wenchang Gallery. You can go in at any point between 6:30 and 15:30 and stay in the park until closing. The main entrance ticket covers the park itself. That is the right choice if what you want is the walk round the lake, the landscape and the buildings from outside, without paying for interiors you will not go into.
