1Forbidden City-The Palace Museum
Our licensed guide will meet you at the agreed spot, then whisk you into the Forbidden City—this 600-year-old imperial wonder that feels like stepping straight into a real-life royal movie! You’ll gawk at the jaw-dropping Hall of Supreme Harmony (the grandest throne hall ever, where emperors ruled like true kings of old) and trace the secrets of the Middle and Preserving Harmony Halls—our guide will spill all the juicy royal gossip and mind-blowing stories behind every golden tile and carved dragon. Then we’ll sneak you to the hidden后宫 (imperial harem) spots—where queens and concubines lived, plotted, and laughed (you’ll feel like you can almost hear their whispers!). We’ll hit the magical Imperial Garden (so pretty it looks like a fairy tale set) and the tricky-to-find corner towers (their design is so clever, it’ll make you wonder how ancient builders pulled it off). No boring facts—just wild stories, eye-popping sights, and every hidden gem you’d never find alone
