The Forbidden City, now known as the Palace Museum is an enormous historical palace and an art museum located in the historical center of Beijing, China. The site is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is of tremendous historical and architectural value.
This area is surrounded by a wall. It is called the Forbidden City because in former times no one, except the imperial (= royal) family -and their servants- was allowed to enter it, but now it is open to the public and attracts a lot of tourists.
