Colorfuly Forbidden City

A few views from the Forbidden City in Beijing. The architecture is designed with strict symmetrical, grand halls, red walls and yellow roofs, and many colorfully decorations. Since 1925 is open for the public as the palace museum. A place with much history, power and art, you feel like stepping in a different time.

Forbidden because for centuries access to the palace was only to the emperor, his family, officials and servants permitted.

The last image gives an amazing overview of the size of the area, the walls look thick with well designed doorways and rooftops :)
