Palace Museum aka: Forbidden City,故宫博物院

couldn’t remember how many times have been here b4, seems every friends that i know all wanna go to visit the Forbidden City. so when they got a chance come to Beijing, i had to go to the Forbidden city again and again…with different friends. but even i came so many times, i never saw all the architectures of Forbidden city, there are part of them always been repairing. i guess thats all for the 08 Olympic. so now after the Olympic game, a whole Forbidden city is stand in front of the world. without those constructions, the forbidden city is really amazing, especially the south part, like Taihe Gate\ Taihe Dian…
about the Forbidden city, not only the buildings are interesting, but also the histories of the emperors’ life. that will be a long story…

How much is the ticket now if I use the student card?

Being renovated at the moment, but all the same, it was an awesome visit!

I saw this place about 4 years ago with some friends. I definitely reccomend that you visit it, historically, culturally and in terms of its architecture it is definitely a place worth seeing. Expect to share the place with a lot of people though, it gets really busy, starts to feel like a tourist trap. The best thing is when you get out of the forbidden city you can walk up this little hill that overlooks it, on a clear day it’s a fantastic view not only of the forbidden city but also of Beijing.
