🌟【One-day tour of the Forbidden City, this is the best way to enjoy it! 】🌟

#Mainland Travel 📍 The Forbidden City in Beijing, this royal palace with 600 years of history, there are new discoveries every time you go there! Today I will share with you a super detailed guide to visiting the Forbidden City, so you can easily avoid the crowds and have fun in the Forbidden City! 👑 ⏰ Best time: The gate opens at 8:30 in the morning. It is recommended to arrive half an hour in advance to avoid the peak of tour groups! After 4pm, the light is perfect for taking photos and there will be fewer people. 🎫 Tickets: 60 yuan in peak season, 40 yuan in off-season. Remember to make an appointment in advance on the official website or mini program. Tickets are not sold on site! The Treasure House and the Clock House are 10 yuan each, highly recommended, absolutely worth the price! 🚶♀️ Recommended routes: 1. Enter through the Meridian Gate: The main gate of the Forbidden City is magnificent and a must-see for taking photos! 2. Tour the central axis: Hall of Supreme Harmony, Hall of Central Harmony, Hall of Preserving Harmony, and feel the royal style! 3. The Six Eastern Palaces: Yanxi Palace and Jingren Palace, a popular check-in spot for internet celebrities, great for taking photos! 4. Treasure House: A must-go! All kinds of rare treasures, dazzling! 5. Exit from Shenwu Gate: There is a corner coffee shop at the exit, where you can take a rest and take photos. 📸 Tips for taking photos: - Red walls and yellow tiles are the symbols of the Forbidden City, and any shot of them will turn out to be a blockbuster! - Using light and shadow, the afternoon sun shines on the palace walls, creating a great atmosphere! - Avoid the crowds and choose a side hall or corner to take photos that give you the feeling of having the Forbidden City all to yourself! 💡 Tips: - Wear comfortable shoes. The Forbidden City is really huge and you may break your legs if you walk there! - Bring your ID card, you need to scan it to enter the park! - Remember to keep warm in winter and sun protection is a must in summer! ✨ The beauty of the Forbidden City lies not only in its architecture, but also in its history and culture. Every time I walk into the Forbidden City, I can feel the heavy sense of history, as if I have traveled back to that glorious era. #Gugong Raiders #Beijing Travel #Gugong Photo #Travel Check-in #Gugong Day Tour
