(Shared English-Speaking Tour Guide)
Overview
Tour Description
Meet with your tour guide at 8:30AM or 12:30AM at the meeting point before commencing your captivating sightseeing tour to the Forbidden City to absorb the imperial majesty of the Chinese palace.
Forbidden City - Lying to the north of Tiananmen Square and rectangular in shape, Forbidden City ( also known officially as the Imperial Palace Museum ) is the world's largest palace complex and covers 74 hectares. The palace was built between 1406 and 1420, but was burnt down, rebuilt, sacked and renovated countless times, so most of the architecture you can see today dates from the 1700's and on wards. The Forbidden City was the seat of Imperial power for 500 years, and is now a major tourist attraction in China.
In addition to the Forbidden City, we will take you to visit the Royal Treasure Museum, which has the most ornamental value, and appreciate the superb craftsmanship of ancient China.
