Gemstones of all colors gather here, and gold, silver, jade, pearls, jade and other treasures are unparalleled in the world.
The museum’s collection includes treasures ranging from large collectibles to small daily necessities, most of which are made of expensive materials and designed by designers from all over the world.
Among them, the 14-cm-high red coral lion and the 17.5-cm-high gold "Fengtianzhibao" seal are rare treasures.

If you go to the Forbidden City, you really must go to the Treasure House. There are so many beautiful jewels, it's really shocking!
After reading this, you will understand that those gorgeous crowns in TV dramas are actually very shabby compared to the ornaments worn by real emperors and empresses!
When you see them, you will find that these are much more beautiful than those high-end custom-made jewels nowadays!
The location of the Forbidden City's Treasure Pavilion was the sleeping palace built for Emperor Qianlong when he announced his abdication. Unfortunately, Qianlong never lived there for a single day, and in the end, it was given to Cixi to enjoy.
In Beijing today, the two royal family members who left the most calligraphy works are Qianlong and Cixi. "Ren De Da Long" is Cixi's handwriting. Her signature is to stamp three seals.
You need to buy an additional ticket for the Treasure House for 10 yuan. I think it is a great deal to see the treasures for 10 yuan.
Every item in the Treasure House is truly a treasure. Perhaps that is why there are so many people coming to admire it. It is really not easy to get closer and take a longer look. So I did not take many photos. You should come and see it in person if you have the chance.
You need to buy tickets for the Treasure House and the Clock House of the Palace Museum separately. It is worth a visit.
You need to buy a separate ticket to enter the Treasure House, and you can book the ticket online in advance and book it together with the entrance ticket.
The Forbidden City in Beijing is known as the first of the five great palaces in the world (Versailles Palace in France, Buckingham Palace in the UK, White House in the US, Kremlin in Russia), and is a national AAAAA-level tourist attraction. The Forbidden City in Beijing is the royal palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties in China. It was formerly known as the Forbidden City. It is located at the center of the central axis of Beijing and is the essence of ancient Chinese palace architecture. The Forbidden City in Beijing is centered on the three main halls, covers an area of 720,000 square meters, and has a construction area of about 150,000 square meters. There are more than 70 palaces of various sizes and more than 9,000 houses. It is one of the largest and most intact ancient wooden structures in the world. It is a rectangular city, 961 meters long from north to south and 753 meters wide from east to west. It is surrounded by 10-meter-high walls on all sides and a 52-meter-wide moat outside the city. The Forbidden City has 4 gates, the main gate is called Wumen, the east gate is called Donghuamen, the west gate is called Xihuamen, and the north gate is called Shenwumen.
In the Ming Dynasty, Shenwu Gate was called "Xuanwu Gate". Xuanwu is one of the four ancient sacred beasts. In terms of orientation, there is Azure Dragon on the left, White Tiger on the right, Vermilion Bird in front, and Xuanwu behind. Xuanwu is in charge of the north, so the northern gate of the imperial palace is often named "Xuanwu". In the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, it was renamed "Shenwu Gate" to avoid taboos. Shenwu Gate is also a city gate tower with the highest grade of double-eaved hip roof, but its main hall has only five bays plus a corridor, and there are no wings extending forward to the left and right, so it is one level lower than Wumen in terms of shape. Shenwu Gate is the access control for daily entry and exit of the palace. Shenwu Gate is now the main entrance of the Palace Museum.
The Treasure House and the Clock and Watch House are charged separately in the Forbidden City. They are located in the Huangji Hall in the northeast corner of the Forbidden City, where Emperor Qianlong originally planned to retire. The Treasure House of the Forbidden City in Beijing opened in 1958. It is one of the important exhibition halls open all year round in the Palace Museum. Together with the Clock and Watch House, it mainly displays the cultural relics and treasures of the Qing Dynasty court, and together with the calligraphy and painting, ceramics, bronze, and treasures, it forms the Forbidden City display system, and the exhibition of the original state of the ancient buildings complements each other.
The products are so pleasing to the eyes, they are all good things, and they are still in line with the current aesthetic standards!
Have a cup of tea, listen to a crosstalk under the overpass, and feel the charm of the thousand-year-old imperial capital at the entrance of the alley.
A large number of precious cultural relics and national treasures are worth seeing.
There are many places worth visiting in the Forbidden City. There are many exquisite cultural relics. You can take your time to see them. It is best to ask a tour guide to have a deeper understanding of the stories behind the cultural relics.
All the rare treasures of the ancient emperors are here, and the Zhenfei Well is nearby.
The second time I came to the Forbidden City, I was able to visit the Treasure House as I wished. I think it is really worth a visit. Not to mention the exquisite jewels and jades, Changyin Pavilion, Nine Dragon Wall...
Anyway, if you can spare the time, you must come.
The treasures in the Treasure House are even more amazing, including glass jade, gold jewelry, exquisite utensils... It is hard to imagine how the ancient royal aristocrats lived among these treasures.
Entering the Treasure House, the dazzling array of treasures inside is dazzling, and the craftsmanship looks very complicated. I have to sigh that the ancient people lived so delicately~
It costs an additional ticket, but it's worth going. The Imperial Palace, Concubine Zhen's Well, and the Nine Dragon Wall are all inside.
Tickets for the Garden in the Garden. There are obviously fewer people here. The Treasure House is located in the east and west wings of the Huangji Hall of the Ningshou Palace, the Yangxing Hall, the Leshou Hall and the Yihe Pavilion. There are also many treasures to see. The most important treasure in the Treasure House of the Forbidden City is the Jade Mountain in the Leshou Hall. The upper part of the back of the Jade Mountain is engraved with the handwriting of Emperor Qianlong.
Women can never escape jewelry. The objects on display in the Treasure House, such as step-shaking ornaments, phoenix crowns, court beads, phoenix hairpins, etc., all satisfy women's fantasies.
Putting aside the high cost, the design, delivery, and material innovation alone are enough to impress.
The treasures in the Treasure House are really exquisite and worth a visit.
It is worth seeing these exquisite treasures. It is hard to imagine how the skilled craftsmen in the past made them. There is also a Nine Dragon Wall inside.
It doesn't seem to be very big inside. There should be more than these museums that are known as the museums with the most collections in China. I guess many of them are not open to the public! (The Forbidden City is not fully open)
The decoration at that time was already very exquisite.
My travel notes: http://www.mafengwo.cn/i/10941426.html
The Treasure House brings together some of the most exquisite artifacts from ancient times, and its exquisite and luxurious design is jaw-dropping.
For example, the phoenix crown in the picture below, the blue cloud pattern uses a technique called "Dian Cui". Do you know what material this is made of? It is actually the feathers of a kingfisher. It is said that it is the best gloss if it is plucked when the kingfisher is alive. Not to mention the countless pearls and gems on the phoenix crown, it is so extravagant...
The ticket to the Treasure House is not included in the ticket and needs to be purchased separately. The price is 10 yuan, which is highly recommended.
You need to buy a separate ticket to visit the Treasure House. The ticket is not too expensive and it is worth a visit. It displays all kinds of rare treasures from the royal family throughout history, and there are explanations of the treasures. I learned a lot after going through the tour.
The Treasure House is on the east side of the central axis. The fee is 10 yuan for a single visit and 5 yuan for children. It leads directly to the Zhenfei Well and you can visit it.
I really don't recommend it. I personally don't like the nouveau riche type of jewels and gems.
The phoenix crowns in the Treasure House are particularly beautiful. There are currently two of them, and the other one is in the National Museum.
It should be noted that the Clock Museum and the Treasure House are not included in the Forbidden City entrance ticket. You need to purchase additional tickets, which can be added when purchasing online.
You have to go and see it live to experience the inhumanity of the rich...
There is an exhibition in the direction of the Treasure House recently, the dynamic Along the River During the Qingming Festival. The Treasure House is right outside and it is very cool inside.
The treasures in the Treasure House are all priceless.
I only took pictures of a few artifacts on display in the Treasure House. There are a lot of them, so I recommend you go and see them.
An additional 10 yuan entrance fee is required, and the dazzling array of treasures will dazzle your eyes.
You can enter by swiping your ID card, and you can buy tickets at the door. There are all kinds of gold and silver jewelry, pearls, jade and agate. While marveling at the luxury of the treasures, you also feel that after many lootings, these are really just a drop in the bucket of the Forbidden City's collection.
There are countless treasures in the Treasure House!!! The royal family is so rich, so rich!
Photos can't capture even one ten-thousandth of its essence, you must see it with your own eyes, you must see it with your own eyes, you must see it with your own eyes, I say it three times because it's so important!!!
Everyone here queues up very civilized, but some tour groups are very bad. The tour guides cut in line directly and there is no use saying anything... I like all the exhibits in the Treasure House, big and small, but there are only two that I like the most. One is a pearl and diamond ring, and the other is a phoenix crown. I took a photo of it~ The ring is really beautiful, and the round pearls are more eye-catching under the light, and the small diamonds around it are also very beautiful. This design is still very fashionable now, simple and generous, I love it!
I have two feelings. First, the 10 yuan is worth it. Second, no wonder there were palace fights in ancient times, and people had to fight for these rare treasures.
It's amazing!
Every exhibit is very delicate and exquisite!
There is an old tree in front of the Treasure House with lush branches and leaves. A wooden frame was specially made to help support its body.
The biggest feeling I got after visiting the Treasure House was that the emperor was really rich. I was completely dazzled by the jewels and gems inside. There is also the famous Nine Dragon Wall as soon as you enter the door, so of course you have to go there.
一直以為故宮最好的東西都在台北故宮裡,來了才知道原來還有很多好東西在北京故宮,大推萬壽堂裡的玉石仙台
Adjacent to the Clock and Watch Museum is the Treasure House, which is also a relatively independent small tourist area, including the Nine Dragon Wall, Treasure Exhibition, Huangji Hall, Yangxing Hall, Yueshi Tower, Leshou Hall, Gyeongbokgung Palace, Zhenfei Well and many other attractions. Especially the treasures on display will really make you feel that your eyes are not enough. Every national treasure is a witness to our Chinese civilization and will arouse infinite national pride in our hearts!
I won’t post the pictures one by one here, I’ll leave it for you to appreciate them carefully.
When we visited the Treasure House, we met a volunteer sister. As expected, cultural relics are 30% visual and 70% listening. Following her to understand the past and present of each treasure, I benefited a lot.
Most tourists just rushed through the tour, but when she saw that Bubble and I were listening particularly attentively, she kept interacting with us, and even selectively told us more about what we liked to hear. She couldn't hide her excitement when she got resonance from us.
I think that when I meet volunteer guides in a museum, listening carefully to their lectures is the minimum courtesy and respect for them. This will encourage more volunteers to join this group and allow culture to be better passed on.
Unfortunately, I don’t think I have a good enough chance to see the national treasure, so I didn’t get to see the Jin Ou Yonggu Cup. I guess it has been borrowed to another place for exhibition.
However, the other unique treasures are already too numerous to be seen.
There are so many photos in this section, and after careful selection there are still many left. I really can't bear to delete any more. I can't help but want to share every cultural relic with you.
I was amazed and still amazed by the exquisite luxury presented to us in the costume TV series. It is simply a small witch in front of the treasure house. It is worth watching.
👍👍👍A museum that teaches you a lot. It is recommended that you bring a translator or interpreter with you.
Anyway, they are all treasures, each one is very exquisite, and a treasure of China.
I don't remember clearly whether I went into the Treasure House at that time, and there are very few photos left here. I just went there for a visit, but I did learn about some royal historical relics.
It is full of rare treasures and is definitely worth a visit!
We added a treasure house. It doesn't really matter whether we add it or not, because there are many other museums included in the ticket of the Palace Museum, so there is no shortage of treasures. The pearls are so big! They look like big buttons.
I had the impression that the jade rings in Qing palace dramas were all the same as rings, but I didn’t expect them to be so thick that they could be shaved thin enough to become several ordinary rings.
There are probably several of the most valuable treasures in China, and the exquisiteness of the cultural relics far exceeds that of the collections in local museums.
Since you are in the Forbidden City, you have to visit the museums. The Treasure House is in the Ningshou Palace. The ticket is sold separately for 10 yuan per person, which is not very expensive. It is very convenient to buy tickets online and enter the museum by swiping your ID card.
The museum houses a variety of rare treasures, all of which are very exquisite. I also think it is a must to visit the Nine Dragon Wall. The Zhenfei Well is also here. It is worth a visit!!!
I personally think the Treasure House is more interesting. It displays many rare treasures of ancient emperors, queens, and concubines, including paintings and calligraphy, ceramics, bronze, and antiques. I like the queen's phoenix crown the most, which is simply dazzling. It shows how graceful and elegant the queen was at that time. No wonder the ancients scrambled to become the queen!
The Treasure House is located in the former Ningshou Palace. It is a complex of buildings built by Emperor Qianlong for himself to become the emperor. Although Qianlong did not live in it after it was completed, it is a small Forbidden City in the Forbidden City, with a stage, a garden, and buildings of various levels. Now it is used as a treasure house, where many large objects and treasures are stored, including jade carvings, Buddhist niches inlaid with gems, and jade seals. It is really worth visiting.
The Treasure House is located in the Ningshou Palace area, the east and west wings of the Huangji Hall, the Yangxing Hall, the Leshou Hall, and the Yihexuan area. Most of the items and utensils left over from the Qing Dynasty palace, including government affairs, religious activities, and daily necessities, are made of precious materials and exquisitely crafted. They are both practical items and priceless art treasures.
The Treasure House is worth a visit. The ticket is 10 ¥. You can see the Nine Dragon Wall as soon as you enter. The Treasure House is located in Ningshou Palace, which is the palace where the emperor lived. It has its own style. It is divided into several small halls, and the various treasures are eye-opening!
The sight of the magnificent and rare treasures here is worth the trip. You will be impressed by the craftsmanship of ancient craftsmen and the luxury of ancient emperors. It is really good and worth recommending.
The Treasure House has all kinds of gems, gold and silver utensils, pearls and jade, as well as golden phoenix crowns, ivory and jade carvings. The most outstanding one is a large jade carving weighing 5,000 kilograms, and there is an additional charge of 10 yuan.
Although it is a paid attraction, if you have not been to the Taipei Palace Museum, the exhibits in the Beijing Palace Museum Treasure House can be said to be the most worth seeing exhibits in the Palace Museum. They are very exquisite and you must see them when you go to the Palace Museum. It seems to be quite close to Zhenfei Well and Nine Dragon Wall. I went there many years ago and forgot a little.
The collection of the Treasure House is still very rich, it is recommended to see
Love it so much~all kinds of beauty~jewelry~glittering~muah
The Forbidden City Treasure House is located in the east of the Forbidden City after visiting the Hall of Supreme Harmony and the Hall of Preserving Harmony. There are signboards in the Forbidden City. Like the Clock and Watch Museum, you need to buy a separate ticket, 10 yuan for adults and 5 yuan for children. It is absolutely worth the money. It contains many treasures, various jade seals, jade mountains, snuff bottles, court beads, and countless others. The Forbidden City Nine Dragon Wall is also in the Treasure House. You can see it when you enter the gate of the Treasure House. It takes more than an hour to visit the Treasure House. The interpreter automatically senses and explains most of the treasures in great detail. This is why I strongly recommend everyone to rent an interpreter
It is really worth going to the Treasure House to see it. It is so beautiful.
Of course, when you go to the Forbidden City, you want to see the legendary Nine Dragon Wall. The Nine Dragon Wall is in the scenic area of the Forbidden City Treasure House. If you want to enter the Treasure House, you have to buy a separate ticket. It is not included in the ticket of the Forbidden City. People who like antiques or like to refer to museums will like the Treasure House very much. There are indeed some good things in it, with exquisite workmanship, and shiny gold and jade wares.
Friends who have a passion for Qing Dynasty palace dramas must go. It's really beautiful and exquisite. You can imagine yourself as an emperor, and this place is all yours... Hahahaha
Although the Treasure House and the Clock House have separate fees, they are still worth a visit, as they contain many collections from that time.
The Palace Museum is located in the Ningshou Palace, and is divided into the Yangxing Hall, Leshou Hall, and Yihe Pavilion. Various gems, glittering gold and silver utensils, pearls and jade, as well as golden phoenix crowns, ivory and jade carvings, and all kinds of treasures are displayed here, which are unparalleled in the world.
Tickets for the Palace Museum Treasure House are sold separately, but it is worth a visit because the distinctive Nine Dragon Wall and Zhenfei Well are both here, as well as some other attractions.
The Palace Museum Treasure House charges an additional 10 yuan for admission, and rare treasures are included in the museum, including the Nine Dragon Wall, which is absolutely worth the money! After a round of walking around, I realized that my ancestors were really particular about their daily wear!
It is said that the Forbidden City in Beijing is for architecture, while the Forbidden City in Taipei is for treasures. So where should you go to see treasures in the Forbidden City in Beijing? Of course, the Treasure House of the Forbidden City! The Treasure House is a separate exhibition hall in the Forbidden City. Tickets for the exhibition hall are not included in the tickets for the Forbidden City. You have to buy a separate ticket to visit it, which costs 10 yuan per person.
After viewing the large stone sculptures behind the Hall of Preserving Harmony, continue to visit the east, pass the Jingyun Gate on the east side of the square, and then visit the Treasure House. The Treasure House is a treasure house with various gems, glittering gold and silver utensils, pearls and jade, as well as golden phoenix crowns, ivory jade carvings, and all kinds of treasures that are unparalleled in the world; the most outstanding one is a Haoduo Tower and a large jade carving weighing 5,000 kilograms. Because I am a girl, I am more interested in the phoenix crown and jewelry, especially the phoenix crown, which is super beautiful, so beautiful that I can't take my eyes away!
There is a saying: "Taipei has treasures but no palaces, Beijing has palaces but no treasures." After visiting the Treasure House, I finally understood. I think there must be many precious cultural relics that have not been put on display, but are the cultural relics that are put on display in the Treasure House and charge an extra 10 yuan for admission to this level? Even I, a complete layman who doesn't know anything about cultural relics, can see that these ordinary treasures have even simpler exhibition halls, which are worse than most museums I have visited. Alas, it is really disappointing. I can only appreciate the historical weight that the Forbidden City brings to people.
As long as the collection is gemstones, the ticket price is 10 yuan. The price is not expensive, and it is recommended to visit it slowly if you have time.
The Treasure House is located on the east side of the Forbidden City. There is a big sign at the door and the ticket office is next to it. The ticket price is ten yuan. If you have enough time, it is recommended to visit here. The Treasure House starts with the Nine Dragon Wall and ends with the Zhenfei Well. There are many palaces in the middle. The items displayed in different palaces are different, but they are all treasures. Through these displayed items, you can imagine the exquisite attainments of ancient times and the luxury of life in the palace. There is a gloomy little house next to the Zhenfei Well, where her spirit tablet is enshrined. Every time I pass by, I pass by in a hurry and dare not look more. I am timid. The ancient trees, gardens, and dry wells, although they all stand silently between the palaces, seem to be telling ancient stories. After visiting the Treasure House, you can also go to the Clock and Watch Museum, which has the same ticket as the Treasure House. There are a large number of clocks and watches in it, and they are all fine products.
You have to buy a separate ticket, 10 yuan per person. I hesitated for a long time whether to go in. Because I walked for a long time and couldn't walk anymore. Finally decided to go! It's not easy to come here once. There are many tour groups here, and they go in large numbers. It's still worth a visit. You can see the Nine Dragon Wall as soon as you go in. Going in, you can see trees with very different shapes. The second photo below is a tree, winding around like this. I thought it was many trees.
The Forbidden City Treasure House is the most worthwhile place to visit in the entire Forbidden City. Every treasure inside is priceless. They are witnesses of history. Most of these treasures are made of top-quality pearls, jade, gold and silver at the time, and are exquisitely designed and made with ingenuity.
I paid an extra 10 people for a ticket to see the Treasure House, but it turned out that all the treasures that were supposed to be in the palace on the central axis were concentrated in the eastern palace for display.
The Palace Museum Treasure House is located in the eastern part of the Forbidden City, located in the Huangji Hall, Yangxing Hall, Leshou Hall and Yihexuan in the northeast corner.
The ticket for the Treasure House is not included in the Forbidden City ticket. You need to buy a separate ticket for 10 yuan. You can also book it online and enter the museum directly by verifying your ID card.
If you visit the Forbidden City, I strongly recommend the Treasure House. The 10 yuan ticket price is absolutely worth it. Not only can you see all kinds of precious artworks with exquisite shapes and unique meanings here, but also here is a complete Qianlong architectural complex, which can be said to be a miniature Forbidden City. So in terms of architecture, it is also worth visiting.
There are volunteers in the Treasure House. They are all elderly but have profound knowledge and are very familiar with the collections and buildings in the museum. Their voluntary explanations are very in-depth and easy to understand, especially with the Beijing accent, which sounds particularly fascinating.
So, don't miss the Treasure House.
It was an eye-opener when I went there. But they had to sell tickets separately. Why didn't they include it in the Forbidden City tickets?
After visiting the Clock and Watch Museum, the next visit is the Treasure House, which is located in the eastern part of the Palace Museum. The Treasure House is a treasure house with various gems, glittering gold and silver utensils, pearls and jade, as well as gold-wire phoenix crowns, ivory and jade carvings. All kinds of treasures are unparalleled in the world; the most prominent one is a Haoduo Tower and a large jade sculpture weighing 5,000 kilograms, which seems to be called Dayu Mountain.
