Last summer I went to one of the world's most famous historical places, the Forbidden City in Beijing, China.It was the home of the emperors of the last two dynasties(朝代) in China, the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

In Mandarin(普通话), the Forbidden City is called the Purple Forbidden City.However, the colour of the palace itself is not purple.The colour purple stands for the power of the great emperors of China.It was so sacred(神圣的) that the commoners(平民) could not even dream of ever going in.
The emperors also had some of the largest festival celebrations at the Forbidden City.During Chinese New Year, the emperor would invite all the members of his family and his officials to a banquet.The banquet had a hundred and eight Chinese dishes.It was such an expensive banquet that it could feed a commoner's family for three generations(代).
Right now the Forbidden City is known as a historical site for tourists from all over the world.Everyone can go there.It is a museum with priceless Chinese antiques(古董) and treasures in it.
