In December 2015 I visited the famous forbidden city in Beijing, largest royal palace complex in the world. I was pretty lucky to see it while it was snowing in Beijing.

How to get there: Take the subway Line 1 and get down at Tiananmen East Station (Exit A) or Tiananmen West Station (Exit B)

Ticket price: Ticket to enter the forbidden city complex and the palace museum is 60 CNY from April to October and 40 CNY from November to March. Extra 10 CNY tickets applies if you wanna enter Treasure Gallery and Clock and Watch Gallery.
