[Forbidden City Taboo Aesthetics Handbook]

——How to touch the undiminished warmth of six hundred years with your fingertips ❶ Golden Hour Rule Blend in with the first group of people entering the palace at the beginning of Mao time (5am-7am) When the sunlight cuts diagonally across the Hall of Supreme Harmony's roof ridge beasts The glazed tiles will flow with amber-colored honey Press the shutter at this moment to capture the lingering warmth on the dragon throne ❷ Palace Seduction Guide Don't linger in the Hall of Celestial Purity for too long Go around to the shadows of the Moon Flower Gate on the west side See the coiling dragon caissons reflected on the gold brick floor Like the looming waist dimples under crumpled silk clothes ❸ Red Wall Erotic Undercurrents The third palace wall in the back alley of the Palace of Gathered Elegance is the most wonderful Mottled vermilion is soaked with the rouge of three dynasties Let travelers lean against the sunken marks of time Lower the lens to the collarbone position Let the withered branches of winter cast a cage-like shadow on the neck ❹ Whispers by the Dragon Bed In front of the dragon bed in the East Warm Pavilion of the Hall of Mental Cultivation Remember to hold your breath for three seconds Here remains the anxiety of Emperor Guangxu's fingertips stroking the memorials And the jasmine fragrance falling from Consort Zhen's hair (Warm reminder: Touching is prohibited here, but fantasy is allowed) ❺ Forbidden Touch Points The rusty arrow on the plaque of the Longzong Gate Is the kiss mark of the Tianli Sect riot during the Jiaqing period Use your eyes to measure the seven-inch distance it deviates from the heart As if stroking the exposed old scars of history 🍵 Dark Easter Eggs: • The ruins of the Western Crystal Palace in Yanxi Palace are suitable for shooting fragmented blockbusters • The stone lion holding its belly on the Broken Rainbow Bridge hides the secret history of eunuchs in the Yuan Dynasty • The midnight legend of Yin Yang Road is more aphrodisiac than any perfume Strategy Mindset: The Forbidden City is a beauty with half-opened vermilion lips Don't tear open her palace dress with the recklessness of a tourist Like the green smoke rising from the Xuande incense burner Entangle and penetrate her gold and silver threaded skin (Strategy suggestions: paired with silk scarf/agarwood bracelet/embroidered gold horseshoe shoes)
