The Forbidden City
The Forbidden City in Beijing was built between 1406 and 1420 during the Ming Dynasty and served as the imperial residence of Ming and Qing emperors. This immense complex of palaces, courtyards, and gardens represents the height of classical Chinese tradition and authority. Its urban ecosystem contains ancient cypress trees, pines, magnolias, and ornamental gardens inhabited by sparrows, magpies, swallows, and butterflies. The surrounding moats and green spaces help moderate the local microclimate, while continuous architectural and environmental preservation has transformed the site into an important historical and ecological sanctuary within modern Beijing.
