Is this summer palace a rebuild of the old summer palace, or totally different palace?

Thanks!Quote:
Check out them seperately in wikipedia: The Summer Palace http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Summer_Palace The Old Summer Palace http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Summer_Palace Both of them were severely damaged by the British and French troops during the Second Opium War (year 1860). The former one was largely repaired after the war, while the later one, due to the much bigger scale of the construction works, the former Qing Government was never able to rebuild it(cs the dynasty itself was likely to fall at that time). The old summer palace(or Yuanming Yuan in Chinese)was truely a masterpiece of Imperial Garden Design through all our human history. The restored Summer Palace(or Yihe Yuan in Chinese) however is less glorious than the old summer palace, is still regarded as a impressive landmark, isn't it? And it was listed as one of the World's Heritage Sites since 1998. ![]() Attached with the images of The Ruined Site of Old Summer Palace, all we can see today are mainly those relics. The Chinese government decided to keep the ruined site as is to teach future generations about the consequences of being dominated by foreign powers during the late 19th century and early 20th century.
