Giant rubber duck draws crowds at Summer Palace.

The 18-meter-tall rubber duck moved to the Summer Palace on Thursday, after finishing its tour at the Beijing International Garden Expo Park. 36,700 visitors showed up for the Summer Palace debut. Not surprisingly, the duck has made itself at home on Kunming Lake. Fans can take a boat to get a closer look. The cheerful creation of Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman will be on display in Summer Palace until October 26th.
