Forbidden City From Above - The Largest Palace in the World

[@myjc2713]

How did they manage to build this hundreds of years ago?! Amazing!

[@s0so328]

MYJ C this is great but the Daming palace of the Tang Dynasty was actually more impressive that was built in the 7th century but now it’s a ruin

[@pass3d]

Daming palace (Tang Dynasty) is 5 times bigger Forbidden City (Ming & Qing Dynasty).

[@Lion-tq6rr]

China is the central of the world, Chinese build two palaces, the original palace of China was much bigger, the 3rd Chinese emperor moved the capital from south to north, and built the palace you saw. Chinese Not only has money to build two palaces, they also start the first and greatest ship-sail in human history over the globe, and also achieved success on the war against Mongols, the 3rd Chinese emperor did all that in his one reign.

Except the foundation of the site, the forbidden city only took 3 years to be done more than 600 years ago.

It was built by Ming dynasty which was ruled by major ethnic group (Han Chinese). Qing dynasty was after Ming and it was ruled by a minority ethnic group (Manchu Chinese).

Maybe Philippine need to rebuild Royal palace and old city wall back for tourism. www.indonesiakaya.com/uploads/_images_gallery/3__IMG_6470_Keraton_Kaibon_adalah_keraton_kedua_yang_dibangun_setelah_Keraton_Surosowan.jpg www.indonesiakaya.com/uploads/_images_gallery/cover/keraton_kaibon_1290.jpg
