It was Merkel's second visit to a World Heritage site in Beijing after she toured the Temple of Heaven in 2014. She was making her ninth trip to China since taking office, making her the most frequent visitor to China among western leaders. Li later hosted a banquet for Merkel near the Summer Palace, where they also held an informal meeting.
