Reviews from Real Guests:

Trip.com User: I think it is the best spot for those who like modern history.As the imperial palace of the former Manchu Empire, you can slip through time in the period of great prosperity. It takes more than 2 hours to see it in a hurry because it is too vast and has a lot of sights. I visited for two days because I didn't have time. It's in the world of the last emperor. I would definitely recommend it.

Trip.com User: The silver products left by the Japanese army, which were made from the chrysanthemum gate, are seen. When I speak to the Chinese who have deepened friendship, the Japanese invasion is always taken away, but everyone Chinese do not blame the Japanese for the past. I respect such Chinese very much. I sincerely thank you for your support.
