Do you know which film and television works were shot in the Forbidden City in Beijing?

Being able to enter the Forbidden City for filming is not a simple matter. It needs special permission and ordinary people can't get in. For example, The Queen of the Palace was filmed in Hengdian. However, the later TV series were all shot in the Forbidden City.

The Last Emperor 1987 The Last Emperor was directed by Italian bernardo bertolucci. It is also a feature film shot in the Forbidden City with the permission of the China government. It is the first western film about China with the full cooperation of the China government since 1949. Because of the particularity of its producer, the film received strong cooperation from the government at that time, and most scenic spots in the Forbidden City were open for live shooting. The towering and heavy walls of the Forbidden City provide excellent sound insulation for shooting, and also present a heavy sense of history for the color of the film.

During the Yongzheng period, some scenes were shot in the Forbidden City because Hengdian Film and Television City had not yet been built. As a forbidden area of ancient palaces, the management is extremely strict. Only a few hours are allowed to shoot every day, and the charge is quite expensive, 30 thousand an hour. It can be said that this TV series was a big production at that time. However, this TV series is one of the classics of the Qing Dynasty because of its exquisite pictures and excellent production.

At that time, the TV series Princess Zhu Huan, which was popular all over the country, also entered the Forbidden City to shoot, but there were not many shots. Most of them were shot in Beijing Grand View Garden and Beijing Film Studio. However, due to the immortal spirit of the Forbidden City, the play has been selling well to this day, and its charm has not diminished.

The film 1983 starring Liu Xiaoqing and Tony Leung Ka Fai was also shot in the Forbidden City. This film tells the story of Empress Dowager Cixi from being elected to the palace to listening to politics with a curtain. It is also a very classic work.

Burning Yuanmingyuan is a prequel. In 1860, the British and French allied forces burned the Yuanmingyuan. At that time, Emperor Xianfeng was still alive, and there was no such thing as "Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces" or "Listening to the Politics". Cian is the queen of Xianfeng, and Cixi is the concubine of Xianfeng.

The Battle of Ping Jin is a trilogy of the Armageddon of the Battle of Ping Jin. It tells the story that after the Liaoshen Campaign and the Huaihai Campaign, Chiang Kai-shek had to announce his acceptance of an agreement to peacefully solve the Peiping problem. The film was released in China on June1992+1October 0 1. It is worth mentioning that the filming of this film is completely true. The empty Hall of Supreme Harmony even has a rare shot of a dragon spitting water. In addition, the Lugou Bridge is also real. Jingshan and Wanshun Pavilion in Zhongnanhai are both real scenes, and the scale is very grand!

There are very few film and television works that can really be allowed to enter the Forbidden City for real-life shooting, and the shooting scope is basically limited to location shooting. In order to protect the cultural relics of the Forbidden City, documentaries are generally only allowed to shoot interior scenes, such as Hall of Supreme Harmony, Gan Qing Palace and hall of mental cultivation, which appear in film and television dramas, and these interior scenes are basically shot by the crew on the set.
