Gumbo's Pic of the Day, April 19, 2015: The Forbidden City,Beijing China

Jonathan L 4/19/154:30 AM

I recently traveled to Beijing, China and took the tour of The Forbidden City. It is truly awe inspiring, both in its size and in the size of the crowds who visit it every day. The palace trades the opulence of European palaces for the open space that was not available in Beijing.

Our tour gave us 1.5 hours. I could have used at least 3 hours more.
