Photos show Fan Bingbing, a famous Chinese actress, in the costume of a queen in Qing Dynasty (1644-1912) in Chengde Summer Resort in Hebei Province. This set of photos drew comparisons to Fan's role from 16 years ago in the Chinese drama series "Princess Pearl," which was filmed at the same location. Fan has transformed from playing the role of a servant girl in "Princess Pearl" to that of a queen in "Woman in Picture Frames," a film directed by French director Charles De Meaux.
