The Old Summer Palace is a pain in the heart of every Chinese, and generations of Chinese have wanted to see the Old Summer Palace as it was before it was destroyed.

At the Sotheby's auction in United Kingdom, several photos taken by United Kingdom photographer Felice Bit in 1860, before the Anglo-French coalition broke through Beijing, attracted widespread attention from collectors, and it is suspected that the photos before the Old Summer Palace was burned were found for the first time, causing a huge sensation.

This photograph was taken by the United Kingdom photographer Felice Bitt before the fall of Beijing in 1860, and experts speculate that it should be the old Old Summer Palace. The photo was sold at Sotheby's in United Kingdom for £200,000.

In addition to the Old Summer Palace, there are several other photos of the Beijing city wall and Beihai:
