What should I pay attention to when visiting the Forbidden City?

When you visit the Forbidden City, you should pay attention to the fact that smoking is forbidden in the Forbidden City and remind others not to smoke. The Forbidden City is the largest existing wooden palace complex in the world, and there have been many fires in history. Every lit cigarette butt may be a threat to this precious historical and cultural heritage.

We should respect cultural heritage and protect cultural relics and historic sites. Don't draw ancient buildings and trees, and don't take photos with flashlights and tripods in the exhibition hall. Because of the copyright agreement, visitors are not allowed to take photos of exhibitions held by the Palace Museum in cooperation with other museums and exhibits in specialty stores. Please pay attention to the warning signs and obey the management of the pavilion staff.
