  • Forbidden City (The Palace Museum), China
    Forbidden City (The Palace Museum), China It is well-preserved imperial palaces in the world but also a precious testimony to the Chinese culture and civilization during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Get close to the glorious history of China and the country’s enigmatic folklore as you enter the Forbidden City. It is not only one of the well-preserved imperial palaces in the world but also a precious testimony to the Chinese culture and civilization during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. This grand and gigantic palace complex seems to have a heavily guarded past to which the common people have no access. The emperors’s residence with magnificent watchtowers evokes a sense of respect. History The colossal palace of the Forbidden City is the former royal abode of the 14 Emperors of the Ming Dynasty (1368- 1644) and 10 Emperors of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). Ming Emperor Zhu Di got this grand palace constructed between 1406 and 1420 AD. The Chinese Republic overthrew the last Qing Emperor in 1911 and brought the palace under the direct control of Chinese government. Facts about Forbidden City The Forbidden City has come to be known as The Purple Forbidden City, Gùg?ng Bówùgu?n, Gù G?ng, The Palace Museum and Forbidden City over the 600 years of history. The Palace Museum is the largest palace complex in the world. It is spread over an area of 74 hectares. This palace complex has nearly 10,000 rooms, 980 buildings, and 90 palaces and courtyards. The Palace Museum was listed as 'an important historical monument' under the special preservation of the Chinese government in 1961.
