The Palace Museum is located in the center of the central axis of Beijing, 1 kilometer north of Tian'anmen Square, opposite Jingshan South Gate. It was formerly known as the Forbidden City. It is now built as the "Palace Museum". It is the largest existing palace-type building in the Ming and Qing Dynasties (1368-1911). It is the largest and most complete preserved wooden structure in the world. It is said that there are 99 and a half palace rooms with yellow glazed tile roof and blue and white stone base. It is called "Sea of Palaces" and is known as the first of the five palaces in the world (Beijing Palace Museum, Versailles Palace, France, Buckingham Palace, White House, Kremlin Palace, Russia). Zhu Di, the ancestor of Ming Chengzu, started construction on the basis of the Yuandu Palace in 1406 A.D. and Yongle in the Ming Dynasty was built in 1820 (1420). Twenty-four emperors lived there. Feng Yuxiang launched the "Beijing coup" in 1924 and expelled Puyi, the Qingxun Emperor, from the palace. There are four gates in the Palace Museum. The main gate is named Wumen (the place where the emperor ordered to go out), the east gate is named Donghua Gate, the west gate is named Xihua Gate, the north gate is named Shenwumen (the Ming Dynasty is "Xuanwumen" and the Qing Emperor Kangxi period is changed to "Shenwumen" because of taboos. It is now the main gate of the Palace Museum. The whole building is magnificent and magnificent. It is listed as "World Cultural Heritage" by UNESCO. In the foreign dynasty, Taihe (commonly known as the "Jin Luan Dian" was the place where the emperor held the grand ceremony), Zhonghe, Baohe (also the place where the imperial examination was held, the top three names were the champion, the eye of the table and the flower of the imperial examination), Wenhua and Wuying Dian (the leader of the peasant rebellion army Li Zicheng invaded Beijing in 1644 and held the ceremony of ascension here) were the two wings. The inner court was centered on Qianqing Palace, Jiaotai Palace and Kunning Palace, with the East as the center. The West Sixth Palace is on both wings, surrounded by a wall 10 meters high and 3,400 meters long, with a 52-meter-wide moat outside. Some palaces in the Palace Museum have set up treasure halls, clocks and watches Museum exhibitions, accounting for one sixth of the total number of Chinese cultural relics, which is the richest Museum in China.

    The imperial city story guide Sun led the team very well. You must come to Beijing to the Forbidden City. The last time the whole family came to Beijing three years ago, I went to the Great Wall Summer Palace. I regret that I didn’t go to the Forbidden City. This time I brought my parents to the Forbidden City. Finally, it was complete.

    Xiucai said that Qi Dao contacted us one day in advance to meet the time and place. The explanation of the Forbidden City the next day was very meticulous, caring, there were many children in the group, the history stories and traditional culture were particularly wonderful, and it took more than 3 hours without knowing it. It is highly recommended.

    As the most iconic building in modern Chinese history, the uneven ground witnessed how many years have changed, experienced several burning, several reconstructions! Everything in the Forbidden City makes people look like a heavy sense of history, the place where Cixi lived makes people feel heavy and atmospheric, and Zhenfei Well reflects the cruelty of the court and even the society at that time! The watches in the clock hall are more sophisticated than the current watch design. I saw the treasures in the treasure hall and knew how extravagant the royal family was at that time, and how small we were ordinary! It is called: how many things are in the past, and how many things are lost, meet and smile!

    A very good female commentator, warm, thoughtful, the commentator's intelligent eyes, in the cultural relics upstream, she used approachable language, for the audience to show a dusty historical picture. The narrator not only explained the historical background of the artifacts in depth, but also made the audience have a strong interest in those ancient stories through live examples. The knowledgeable and thoughtful service of the narrators is indeed gratifying, and they are able to present complex exhibits to us in a simple and understandable way, allowing us to learn and gain knowledge in a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.

    If you don't participate in this in-depth tour, get the teacher's key points and interesting explanations, many things in this Palace Museum are unknown. The teacher's time was accurate and the itinerary was not delayed. It is worth recommending everyone to participate.
