China: Forbidden City

Today I got a postcard from China.

The card shows the Forbidden City in China's capital Beijing. The Forbidden City was the seat of the supreme power from 1416 to 1911. Since 1987 is the Forbidden City together with the Imperial Palace in Shenyang as Imperial Palaces of the Ming and Qing Dynasties in Beijing and Shenyang a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
