I sometimes think of the emperors – always being surrounded by this beauty…What a shock if they ever could go outside in the city. Pu Yi did, and I watched the movie again in China.
Thank you, Pike. They were restored some years ago – all buildings in the Forbidden City. The first time we were here they were very dull in colour. I think it was some big sports event that ”did it”.
Such stunning artistry! 🙂
Yes, it truly is. I know of no other country with such artistic skills and history.
Loved this place when I visited….so much detail to take in✨💕✨
So much detail indeed – beautifully restored some years ago.

Surely big events have done it. We were there before digital cameras and it’s not easy to find those photos, but I loved to be there.
