First stop - The Imperial Palace

Speaking of Beijing, we always think of the Forbidden City, the landmark architectural complex located on the axle wire of Beijing, where we can feel the history and culture of Beijing.

Honored as the head of world top five palaces, the Imperial Palace was built from Yongle 4th Year of the Ming Dynasty and completed in Yongle 18th Year. The 961m long (south to north) and 753m wide (east to west) architectural complex is fenced up with a 10m high rampart and a 52m wide moat outside the rampart. The palace is divided into parts. The part of three main halls, including Taihe Hall, Zhonghe Hall and Baohe Hall, were sites for ceremony and state affairs discussion; while the part of three main palaces, including Qianqing Palace, Jiaotai Palace and Kunning Palace, were residential sites of the emperors and empresses.

Many rare and precious stones and wood were used to build the outstanding palace. Ancient working people showed their excellent skills to achieve every fabulous detail of the palace. Red and yellow are supplemented with coloured glaze in blue, purple, black and green; animal decorations, such as Chinese dragon, phoenix, lion, sea horse and Shibi are vividly carved.
