  The fabulous Forbidden City all year round

  The rising sun illuminates the Forbidden City on a cold January morning.A stone lion silhouetted by the full moon guards the city, as solemnly as in ancient times.Blooming plum blossoms in early spring.In the rain of the fallen petals, a cat sleeps.A little stone lion on a lotus pedestal roars in the summer rain.The moat of the Forbidden City in the sunset glow.Dialogue between a sparrow and ginkgo leaves in the afternoon.The Hall of Supreme Harmony standing in the snow.The Forbidden City in tranquility after a fresh snow.
