Huang Xu took out his camera and kept taking pictures of the surrounding scenes, hoping to freeze this beautiful moment forever.

Entering the Forbidden City, they seemed to have traveled through time and space and returned to that glorious dynasty. The red walls and green tiles, the magnificent palace, every brick and tile reveal the richness of history.

"Look, the palace over there seems to be the Qianqing Palace." Zhang Yue pointed forward and said.

"Yes, that's where the emperor handles government affairs." Li Xiao explained, "Let's go over and have a look."

When they arrived at the Qianqing Palace, they saw that the palace was magnificent, and the stone lions in front of the door were majestic, as if they were guarding the secrets of the palace.
