#Forbidden City

Situated at the center of the Beijing Central Axis, the 602-year-old Forbidden City covers an area of 720,000 square meters and features red walls and yellow glazed roof tiles. Representing the culmination of traditional Chinese palatial architecture, it was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987 and is by far one of the world's largest and most well-preserved ancient wooden structures. The Palace Museum was built inside the Forbidden City in 1925. It is one of the few museums in the world that simultaneously boast artworks, architectural designs, historical relics and imperial court culture.
