FORBIDDEN CITY OF CHINA
DINESH VORA
Forbidden City was built for the Chinese Emperor. They thought he was a descendant of god. It was called The Forbidden City since if a commoner came into it they would be-head them. It was built to protect the Emperor. So there was a large square, then a large wall/gate you had to be let through by guards. Then another large square and another large wall/gate you had to get through. Then another before you got to the actual living quarters.For almost five hundred years, it served as the home of emperors and their households, as well as the ceremonial and political center of Chinese government.
