Bask in the grandeur of China's imperial past at the Forbidden City in Beijing. Overlooking the UNESCO World Heritage Site from Jingshan Park, the palace complex, adorned with intricate roof ornamentation and gateway arches, once served as the residence of the Ming and Qing dynasty emperors. Witness the fusion of Chinese culture and history, as seen in the Wumen Gate detail and glyphs, and the iconic Chinese flag. The Forbidden City, a symbol of China's rich heritage, proudly displayed its banner during the 2008 Olympics, showcasing its enduring allure to the world.
