When you walk north across Tiananmen Square under the constant surveillance of security cameras, you'll soon find yourself staring right into Mao Zedong's eyes. The framed portrait of the Communist revolution's leader hangs high on Tiananmen Square, through which you'll gain access to the Meridian Gate leading to the Forbidden City, which welcomes tens of thousands of daily visitors seeking a glimpse of China's long-gone imperial past. The Forbidden City is a palace complex in the center of Beijing. This is the largest imperial palace in the world. In such a historical place, the walls here can speak. This place is huge and spacious, so you can take the whole day to visit everything you need. These walls inspire me to make some nice pictures, I like how red and yellow colors dominate here, every house has a very interesting design, and if you pay more attention, you will find some incredible artwork. It sounds incredible that the forbidden city was home to 24 Chinese emperors. Many photographers and other influencers come here to create amazing works for their clients. You can hire a professional tourist guide or you can rent an audio speaker device with headphones available in all popular languages, and that can be cool, especially when you visit the palace by yourself. I will present you with 10 interesting facts about the forbidden city.
