Forbidden City






Ooooh! It's the Forbidden City! So called as this is where the monarchy lived away from the disgusting peasants. Never venturing out unless it was to the Summer Palace. It is absolutely huge! The guide book says that it could take you three days to really see it. You would have to be some kind of masochist to do this. Its great and all but its so hot and there are so many people that you just want to keep on moving and appreciate it for its enormity.

After you get through it there is a park at the end with a hill that you can climb to see over the entire city! Wow!

As you can see in my photo the smog was so bad that you could't see much.
