Visit: Forbidden City-The Palace Museum, No.4 Jingshanqian Street, Dongcheng District, Beijing 100009 China
It’s the jewel in our city’s crown, its geographical centre and historical heart, our poster boy and the cover girl to countless guidebooks. While term ‘unmissable’ is bandied around fairly lightly, there’s no doubt that Beijing’s Forbidden City, a Unesco World Heritage Site and the largest collection of preserved ancient wooden structures in the world, is worthy of such a title. Put simply, no trip to Beijing is complete without a visit to the imperial abode.
The Clock and Watch Gallery
It seems that emperors of the later Qing dynasty had a penchant for collecting lavish timepieces, and this 200-strong collection, housed in the Hall of Ancestral Worship (奉先殿), shows off some of the most eccentric clocks and watches you’ll ever see. Many were gifts from abroad, while others are fine examples of Chinese clock craft. You’ll need to purchase an additional ticket for this special exhibition.
The Treasure Gallery
Also requiring an additional fee is the Treasure Gallery, beginning just to the south of the Clock and Watch exhibition. It’s a worthwhile walk through several buildings in the far northeastern corner of the Palace Museum, and is home to many priceless jewels, carvings, clothing and other imperial effects.
